Hello all,
Yesterday one customer explained me he has a problem in an old 4400/45 robot from 2006 (+/-) with IRC5.
Every time he has to shut the robot down, he shut down the robot computer first following sequence:
ABB >> Restart >> Advanced >> Shut down >> OK >> Shut down *1.
*1 Names translated from Spanish, but you get the idea of the procedure he follows to shut the robot down.
Till now, after following the shutdown sequence the flex pendant was kept powered on while trying to reconnect to the robot PC (unsuccessfully of course as the PC was shut down).
A couple of weeks ago, the flex pendant display gets black just after the last "Shut down" button press in the previous sequence.
After that, the customer must wait some time to be able to start the robot again. If he tries to start it immediately it simply does not start. If he starts the robot the next day everything works as usual, until he shuts the robot down again.
Have any of you faced this issue? and if you have, how have you solved this?
Thank you all in advance.
