7 SAFETY RESPONSE TIME AND SAFE STOPPING DISTANCE
③ Log data.
Operate the robot and start data logging.
Next, input the stop signal. Data logging will finish after the robot has stopped. A simple way to input
the stop signal is to input it from the emergency stop switch (EMS Switch) connected to the emergency
stop input of the robot controller. If a teaching pendant is connected, the emergency stop switch on
the teaching pendant can also be used. The robot can also be stopped by connecting a signal which
acts as a trigger for the SCNI input of safety communication, or by assigning SS1 to the relevant SCNI
input selected in the safety input settings under Safety logic in RT ToolBox3.
