Zero the Motors
Place the supported robot in its canonical home pose and store that pose as the actuator zero reference.
Zeroing stores each actuator's current position as its zero point. Any pose error becomes a persistent joint-offset error.
TBC: canonical home pose
The source guide refers to a home pose shown in the mechanical assembly guide, but the current public manual does not contain a validated home-pose drawing, joint references, support contact points, or pose acceptance tolerances. Do not select Zero all motors until those references are published for the applicable release.

Zero All Motors
- With firmware stopped, place the robot in the canonical home pose.
- Confirm each side, joint, linkage, stop, and cable matches the home-pose reference.
- Hold or fixture the robot so no joint can sag or shift.
- In Motor setup, open panel 3 - Zero motors.
- Select Zero all motors....
- Review the confirmation prompt and confirm only if the pose has not moved.
- Record the dashboard result, operator, date, hardware release, and home-pose reference revision.
To correct one verified joint, select its Motor ID under Zero one motor, restore that joint to the canonical reference, and select Set zero. Record why the single-joint correction was required.
Stop on uncertainty
Do not estimate a home pose, force a joint, use model limits as physical stops, or zero a sagging robot. If the dashboard does not explicitly confirm the torque-free setup state, or any joint identity, side, reference, or support condition is uncertain, leave firmware stopped and resolve it before continuing.
The dashboard allows zeroing to be repeated. A repeated zero must use the same validated home-pose and support checks and must supersede the earlier zero record.
