4.13 Step Function

When the Auto/Manual keyswitch on the external Front Panel is set to Manual, V+
programs cannot initiate motions unless: high power is enabled, the pendant is set to
COMP mode, and you press the STEP button and the Speed Bar on the pendant. To
continue a motion consisting of multiple MOVE instructions once it has started, you must
continue to press the STEP button and the Speed Bar. Motions started in this mode have
their maximum speeds limited to those defined for Manual control mode.
If a program attempts to initiate a motion when the STEP button and Speed Bar are not
pressed, the following error message is displayed on the pendant and on the system
Monitor:
*Speed pot or STEP not pressed*
Once a motion has started in this mode, releasing the Speed Bar immediately terminates
the motion as well as any belt tracking or motion defined by an ALTER program
instruction. The error message shown above is displayed on the pendant and on the
system Monitor.
If a motion is in process, and you release the STEP button while still pressing the Speed
Bar, the robot will finish the current MOVE instruction and stop. After that, the error
message shown above is displayed on the pendant and on the system Monitor.
As an additional safeguard, when high power is enabled and the keyswitch is set to
Manual, the pendant is set to Off mode, not COMP mode or a Pendant Control mode.
