ABB IRC5 & IRC5P
The versiondog system supports the management of ABB IRC5 projects and enables the automatic creation of backups as well as the cyclic monitoring of the robots.
Note
This tutorial is valid for both IRC5 and IRC5P robots. Since the procedure is identical for both robot controllers, only the designation IRC5 is used for the sake of simplicity.
