5.12 Clearing the alarm log and setting the default values
The tripped alarm log can be cleared and all parameter data can be initialized.
Note: Data initialization alone does not reset the robot parameters to their default
values. To reset the robot parameters to their default values, generation is
required after data initialization. For details on generation, refer to the TOP
software user's manual.
The procedure for this resetting is shown below. If the parameter data has deviated from
the expected value due, for example, by an entry error, then you can clear the alarm log
with the procedure given below or return the parameter to the default value (default
value in the robot driver).
(1) When initializing from the digital operator
1. Select initializing mode.
1-1 Open FA-98, and select one of the following items according to the initializing
information.
Clear Trip Log : CH
Factory Setting : dAtA
Clear Position Sensor to Zero : AbS
1-2 Press the
SET
key.
(Display changes to FA-98)
(See Chapter 6, "Parameter description", for information on how to set.)
2. Press the key for at least 2 seconds while simultaneously holding down the
key.
3. While holding down the above arrow keys, press and release the
SET
key.
The initializing now starts and the following table appears on the display panel.

Note: Do not shut down the control power for the robot driver during
initialization.
Shutting off the power while data is being written may destroy the EEPROM
data (stored data) within the robot driver, and the robot driver may fail to
operate correctly.
4. After the display panel returns to d-00, turn the control power supply off and then
back on.
Note: After initializing the parameters, always perform generation before
operating the robot.
If the robot is operated in the initialized state, it might malfunction or be
damaged.
