Electronics Disassembly

Power down and separate the Head Compute Unit from the RPU so the RPU can be installed in the torso.

With every actuator ID assigned, separate the Head Compute Unit and the RPU again so the RPU can be installed in the torso.

Power down first

Turn the system off before disconnecting anything. Press the button on the battery unit to power down, then disconnect the battery from the XT90-M(2+2) connector on the RPU. Never unplug data or power cables while the system is live.

Before You Start

Disconnect the Head Compute Unit

Unplug the 1000 mm Ethernet cable (highlighted in blue) between the RPU and the .

Disconnect the 1000 mm XT30-Male to XT30-Female power cable (highlighted in red) that runs between the RPU and the .

The Head Compute Unit can now be set aside for head assembly later on.

Disconnect the Battery from the RPU

Remove the XT30 battery power cable (highlighted in red) from the RPU to disconnect the power fully.

The RPU is now fully disconnected from the Head Compute Unit and the battery, ready for installation later on into the torso.

Assign actuator IDs before assembly

Assign and verify all 25 actuator IDs before assembling the robot. The robot will not work correctly with missing or incorrect IDs. IDs must be assigned one actuator at a time on the bench; you may need to disassemble the robot if you skip this step.

Go to Assign Actuator IDs

The override applies to this browser tab only. It does not mark actuator IDs as assigned.
