Turning Power On After an E-Stop

To turn high power on after pressing the pendant emergency stop switch, follow this
process:
1. Turn the emergency stop switch to the right (clockwise). The switch is
spring-loaded and will return to its normal position.
2. If any errors have occurred, the indicator bar on the CLR ERR button will be lit.
Press the CLR ERR button to clear errors from the stack.
3. If the Front Panel is in Manual mode, press the Enable switch. This step is not
required when in Auto mode. High power can now be turned on by pressing the
COMP/PWR button, or by pressing the Power On button.
4. Press the blinking High Power button on the external Front Panel. High power is
enabled and current can flow to the robot motors.

Turning Power On After Enable Switch is Released

When the Front Panel is set to Manual mode and you release the Enable switch (or go to
position 3), the system turns off in a controlled manner. This puts the system in a different
state than when the E-Stop button is pressed. To turn on high power, follow this process:
1. Press the Enable switch.
2. If any errors have occurred, the indicator bar on the CLR ERR button will be lit.
Press the CLR ERR button to clear errors from the stack.
3. High power can now be turned on by pressing the COMP/PWR button, or by
pressing the Power On button.
NOTE: The exception to this situation is when the SmartController is used
in a SmartModules system with a PDU2. You have to press the blinking
High Power button on the external Front Panel.

Calibrating a Robot from the T2 Pendant

A robot must be calibrated after high power has been turned on. The calibration process
can vary depending on what type of robot is being used. Refer to the user's manual for the
robot for calibration details. See the two versions below for typical and special processes.

Typical Calibration Process

1. Verify these conditions exist:
• Front Panel keyswitch is in Auto mode
• Robot power is on, indicated by Robot Power LED and High Power On
Indicator light on the pendant turned on
• Pendant is in COMP mode
2. Press the CMD button, then press the CALIB soft button.
