4.18 Maintenance Manager
To ensure that required maintenance is done on schedule, programmers can create a maintenance program
and configure the Maintenance Manager in ECXP to remind the operator of the required maintenance.
The Maintenance Manager displays a reminder for the operator at the beginning of the next production
run following the expiration of the configured time period. The operator can choose to continue
production without running the maintenance program; however, the reminder will continue to appear at
the beginning of each production run until the maintenance program is run.
4.18.1 Maintenance Manager Configuration
In order to receive a reminder, a procedure must be defined in the ECXP Maintenance Manager.
To configure the Maintenance Manager:
1. Click on
Configure > Maintenance Manager to open the Maintenance Configuration
Screen. (Figure 4-32).
2. Select the desired procedure from the drop-down menu and then set the desired time period.
3. Click on
OK.
NOTE ECXP includes a maintenance program for cable tensioning, which reminds the operator
to tension the cables every 90 days. The Cable Tensioning Program is run by clicking on
Utilities > Robot Utilities > Tension Procedure.
