To load a specification file:

1. To update the specification data for a mechanism, select the mechanism if it is not

already selected. (To change the selection, use the Change robot number option on
the SPEC main menu.)

2. From the SPEC main menu, select Load robot specifications from a disk file. The

following screen is displayed (the details of NFS mounts could be different for
your system):

3. Enter the disk file specification for the data file you want to load (e.g.,

“\SPECDATA\QP08360.SPC”).

Components that match the current default file path can be omitted.

Save ALL specifications to system disk

After you have loaded the configuration data, you must store the new data on the V+
system disk. This menu item causes all the current configuration data to be written to the
V+ system disk. If the changed data is not stored on the system disk, the previous
configuration data is used the next time the robot system is booted.

If your Adept system controls more than one robot, this menu selection saves the data for
ALL the robots (and any external encoders).

CAUTION:

Before you modify a V+ system disk, you should make a

copy of the system (with the DISKCOPY utility program).
