Hi All,

This is a curly question about what ABB refers to as "indian Territory" (in jest). I have been recently experiancing problems with an IRB 4400 S4C+ controller where the flash disk has been inadvertantly filled to capacity & the robot no longer wants to play. What we are left with is the controller continuosly running through its boot cycle, so to remedy this problem I have connected to the unix operating system through Hyperterminal & deleted some of the larger unnessecary files. This has enabled the controller to continue through its boot cycle enough to cold start the controller. After repeating the process twice to remove two of the loaded systems it will not reboot a third time to remove the last operating system. I am interested in hearing from anyone that has had a aimilar experiance & may have a fix for the problem. I also intend to update the thread with the solution when I find it.

Ragee,
Hey, I have as many Abb robots as you need. What kind of price would work for you to be able to ship them out of Ohio?
