[Caution] The external emergency stop input is prepared as a b contact for safety proposes. Thus, if the emer -
gency stop input circuit is opened when the robot is started up, the robot will not operate. Refer to
"Fig. 6-1 Example of safety
Activates when the total servo current time exceeds
the specified value.
Activates when an overcurrent flows to the motor
circuit.
Activates when the encoder cable is disconnected.
Activates when an error occurs between the com -
mand value and actual position, and the error
exceeds the specified amount.
Activates when the AC power voltage drops below
the specified value.
Activates when an error occurs in the CPU.
This is the limit provided by the software to enable
operation only in the operation range.
This is the mechanical stopper provided outside the
software.

input
This is the stop with the highest degree of emergency. The servo power is shut off,
and the mechanical brakes (all axes) activate to stop the robot.
To recover, reset the alarm, and turn the servo ON with the servo ON command.
This is a stop operation with a high degree of emergency. The robot immediately
decelerates and stops.
Note that the servo power is not shut off. Use this when using the collision evasion
sensor, etc.
Command
(Input signal) This servo power is shut off, and the robot
stops immediately.
STOP
The program execution is stopped, and the
robot stops. The servo power is not shut off.
SRVOFF
The servo power can be shut off.
AUTOENA
Disables automatic operation when inactive.
SRVON
The servo power ON/OFF state is output.
STOP
Outputs that the robot is temporarily stopped.
ERRRESET
Outputs when an alarm occurs in the robot.
