I am using a UR5e robotic arm. During the startup process, I found that the robotic arm cannot start properly, and the error code is C296A1. Upon inspection, I noticed that my 10A fuse has blown. Is there any way to replace the fuse? Can I use an external 24V power supply instead, without using the fuse?
The fuse protects the IO system (including safety) between the 24V supply (be it internal or external) and the IO.
It will have to be installed for you to power on your robot. It doesn’t matter if you use an external power supply.
It’s a standard component and can be bought in many hardware stores (also car part dealers).
