Controller-to-Robot Compatibility

An ESC controller is not a universal drop-in replacement. Its firmware and stored configuration files must correspond to the attached robot and application.

Required filesLoad the parameter and macro files intended for the target robot.
Serial-number checkCompare the robot serial number returned by the controller's RSRN command with the serial number on the robot body.
Firmware boundaryAxis assignments, parameter files, and status-bit definitions vary by firmware version.
Replacement workflowUpload the files from the original controller or use the files supplied with the robot before commissioning a replacement.
