Navigation#

Mecademic’s documentation is organized by robot models. The various manuals for your robot can be accessed from the header above. For the selected manual, the main sections are listed in the left sidebar, and any subsections are shown in the right sidebar. Clicking on the Mecademic logo in the upper-left corner brings you to the main documentation page, with the list of Mecademic robot models.

User manuals are independent of the robot firmware version. The Programming and the MecaPortal manuals, however, are specific to a given firmware version. For these two manuals, different versions can be selected from the dropdown menu at the top of the left sidebar.
