NOTE!
The enabling device is a push button located on the side of the FlexPendant which, when
pressed halfway in, takes the system to MOTORS ON. When the enabling device is released
or pushed all the way in, the robot is taken to the MOTORS OFF state.
To ensure safe use of the FlexPendant, the following must be implemented:
26
• The enabling device must never be rendered inoperative in any way.
•
During programming and testing, the enabling device must be released as soon as
there is no need for the robot to move.
• The programmer must always bring the FlexPendant with him/her, when entering the
robot's working space. This is to prevent anyone else taking control of the robot
without the programmer knowing.
