Chapter 1. Overview - ABB IRC5 Startup Manual

Chapter 1. Overview

This guide will help you set up an ABB robot controller for use with Forge‍O 5.
This guide assumes that you have installed the ABB robot and controller following ABB instructions. Make sure the robot
and controller are in working order before moving on. Also make sure you have the required hardware and software.
You will complete these steps:
1. Oet up Forge/‍O.
2. Transfer robot configuration files to the robot.
3. Program your robot with Forge/‍O!
Note:
We recommend backing up your ABB controller. You can save a backup first by following ABB instructions or you
can save a backup using Robot Otudio later in these steps.
