Operation Mode
Operation mode should be used when the robot is operating under normal conditions and is
being controlled by the NJ-series Robot Integrated CPU Unit with EtherCAT communications.
To place the robot in operation mode, set the OP/SV two-position dip switch on the robot inter-
face panel to the OP position (left) as shown in the figure below.
IMPORTANT: The position of the dip switch is checked during power-up only.
Changing this switch position while 24 VDC power is supplied will not change
the mode of the robot until power is cycled. It is recommended to remove all
robot power before changing the position of this switch.
Service Mode
Service mode is used for special conditions when the robot must be accessed with methods
other than EtherCAT communications.
NOTE: If the robot is placed in service mode, it will not communicate with an
NJ-series Robot Integrated CPU Unit.
IMPORTANT: The operating mode switch state is checked only during robot
startup after power is applied.
If the following conditions are present on your system, contact your local OMRON rep-
resentative for support.
