Re: programming pneumatics psi

The running test you will be required to demonstrate during inspections is that when you enable the robot, the compressor turns on and pressurizes to 120 psi (or slightly less) as verified by the high side gauge and then shuts off under Crio control. While this test is running your inspector will also examine the low side gauge to insure that the pressure there rises to 60 psi and no higher. Then you will be asked to disable the robot and vent the pressure at which time both gauges should return to zero.
