NOTES FOR SAFE OPERATION

Read this manual carefully before installation, operation, maintenance, or

inspection of the YRC1000.

In this manual, the Notes for Safe Operation are classified as “DANGER”,

“WARNING”, “CAUTION”, or “NOTICE”.

Even items described as “CAUTION” may result in a serious accident in

some situations.

At any rate, be sure to follow these important items.

DANGER

Indicates an imminently hazardous

situation which, if not avoided, will

result in death or serious injury.

Safety Signs identified by the signal

word DANGER should be used

sparingly and only for those

situations presenting the most

serious hazards.

WARNING

Indicates a potentially hazardous

situation which, if not avoided, will

result in death or serious injury.

Hazards identified by the signal

word WARNING present a lesser

degree of risk of injury or death than

those identified by the signal word

DANGER.

CAUTION

Indicates a hazardous situation,

which if not avoided, could result in

minor or moderate injury. It may

also be used without the safety alert

symbol as an alternative to

“NOTICE”.

NOTICE

NOTICE is the preferred signal word

to address practices not related to

personal injury. The safety alert

symbol should not be used with this

signal word. As an alternative to

“NOTICE”, the word “CAUTION”

without the safety alert symbol may

be used to indicate a message not

related to personal injury.

NOTE

To ensure safe and efficient operation at all times, be sure

to follow all instructions, even if not designated as “DAN-

GER”, “WARNING” and “CAUTION".

DANGER

• Before operating the manipulator, make sure the servo power is

turned OFF by performing the following operations. When the servo

power is turned OFF, the SERVO ON LED on the programming

pendant is turned OFF.

– Press the emergency stop buttons on the front door of the

YRC1000, on the programming pendant, on the external control

device, etc.

– Disconnect the safety plug of the safety fence.

(when in the play mode and the remote mode)

If operation of the manipulator cannot be stopped in an emergency,

personal injury and/or equipment damage may result.

Fig. : Emergency Stop Button

• Before releasing the emergency stop, make sure to remove the

obstacle or error caused the emergency stop, if any, and then turn

the servo power ON.

Failure to observe this instruction may result in personal injury caused

by unintended manipulator movement.

Fig. : Release of Emergency Stop

TURN

• Observe the following precautions when performing a teaching

operation within the P-point maximum envelope of the manipulator:

– Be sure to perform lockout by putting a lockout device on the

safety fence when going into the area enclosed by the safety

fence. In addition, the operator of the teaching operation must

display the sign that the operation is being performed so that no

other person closes the safety fence.

– View the manipulator from the front whenever possible.

– Always follow the predetermined operating procedure.

– Always keep in mind emergency response measures against the

manipulator’s unexpected movement toward a person.

– Ensure a safe place to retreat in case of emergency.

Failure to observe this instruction may result in personal injury caused

by improper or unintended manipulator movement.

• Confirm that no person is present in the P-point maximum envelope

of the manipulator and that the operator is in a safe location before:

– Turning ON the YRC1000 power

– Moving the manipulator by using the programming pendant

– Running the system in the check mode

– Performing automatic operations

Injury may result if any person should enter the P-point maximum

envelope of the manipulator during operation. Immediately press an

emergency stop button whenever there is a problem. The emergency

stop buttons are located on the front panel of the YRC1000 and on the

right of the programming pendant.

• Read and understand the Explanation of the Warning Labels before

operating the manipulator.

Definition of Terms Used Often in This Manual

The MOTOMAN is the YASKAWA industrial robot product.

The MOTOMAN usually consists of the manipulator, the controller, the

programming pendant, and supply cables.

In this manual, the equipment is designated as follows.

WARNING

• Perform the following inspection procedures prior to conducting

manipulator teaching. If there is any problem, immediately take

necessary steps to solve it, such as maintenance and repair.

– Check for a problem in manipulator movement.

– Check for damage to insulation and sheathing of external wires.

• Always return the programming pendant to the hook on the

YRC1000 cabinet after use.

If the programming pendant is left unattented on the manipulator, on a

fixture, or on the floor, the Enable Switch may be activated due to

surface irregularities of where it is left, and the servo power may be

turned ON. In addition, in case the operation of the manipulator starts,

the manipulator or the tool may hit the programming pendant left

unattended, which may result in personal injury and/or equipment

damage.

1 Functional Overview

1.1 Overview

The WELDCOM function serves as a digital interface that communicates

via Ethernet with an arc welding power source. The function provides high

data rate transmission between YRC1000 and the welding power source,

enables the welding power source parameter to be set from the

programming pendant, and monitors graphically welding current and

voltage during welding.

The WELDCOM function can use either of the following four welding

power sources for connection.

MOTOWELD-EL350-AJ2E (manufactured by YASKAWA

ELECTRIC CORPORATION)

(AJ2E indicates that an Ethernet interface is incorporated.)

MOTOWELD-RP500 (manufactured by YASKAWA ELECTRIC

CORPORATION)

(In the case of digital communication mode)

MOTOWELD-RL350 (manufactured by YASKAWA ELECTRIC

CORPORATION)

(In the case of digital communication mode)

MOTOWELD-X350 (manufactured by YASKAWA ELECTRIC

MOTOWELD-X500 (manufactured by YASKAWA ELECTRIC

CORPORATION)

MOTOWELD-RD350S/S-AC (manufactured by YASKAWA

ELECTRIC CORPORATION)

MOTOWELD-RD500S (manufactured by YASKAWA ELECTRIC

CORPORATION)

( , , System version: YAS2.03.00(□)-00 or later)

TPS4000 CMT (manufactured by Fronius International GMBH)

(Only the model that incorporates the WeldCom interface)

TPSi (manufactured by Fronius International GMBH)

(System version: YAS1.34.00(□)-00 or later)

(Only the model that incorporates the WeldCom interface)

Programming a job is available using general arc welding

commands.

ARCSET ASF#( ),

ARCON ASF#( ),

ARCOF AEF#( )

Welding conditions are set in a welding start condition file or a

welding end condition file specified in an arc welding command.

The welding start condition file or welding end condition file has the

edit window that provides the setting window for a digital interface,

enabling users to check or edit parameters to be set in welding

power source.

The parameter to be set in the edit window of the welding condition

file is saved in the dedicated condition file, "Welding type file" and

"Digital welder condition file", where the data can be loaded and

saved with the external memory function.
