iBOT Reset Detected
Description
This jam occurs when the Real-Time Controller detects that an
iBOT has reset itself.
Resolution
Use the iBOTs status display (in the iBOTs tab in the Run
screen) to identify the location of the jammed iBOT. Remove the iBOT from the
machine using normal removal procedures.
The iBOT can be reintroduced into the system at a convenient time. If the
same iBOT keeps getting reset, remove the iBOT and do not put it back in the
system.
Clearing other iBOTs out of the way / Bringing them Home
In certain situations, it may be a good idea to bring all the non-jammed iBOTs
home. For example:
• It is difficult to reach the jammed iBOT due to other iBOTs being in the way.
• The jam looks complicated and may take a while to recover from, and
bringing the other iBOTs home would save them from running out of power
and being stranded.
To bring the non-jammed iBOTs home, click the Home button on the Run
screen. All the non-jammed iBOTs will try to get back home. Please be patient
since this may take a little while. It is possible that some iBOTs may not be
jammed but are still unable to get home.
Incompatible iBOTs Detected
Description
The Real-Time Controller has detected an iBOT in the system
that is incompatible with the Controller. This can happen if the Controller
software is upgraded but the iBOTs are not when an iBOT upgrade is
necessary.
Resolution
Identify the incompatible iBOT and remove it from the machine.
This iBOT cannot be reintroduced into the machine till its software is upgraded.
