•
The FlexPendant may only be used for the purposes mentioned in this
manual.
•
Always use the hand-strap while holding the FlexPendant.
•
Handle with care. Do not drop, throw, or give the FlexPendant strong shock.
It can cause breakage or failure.
•
If the FlexPendant is subjected to shock, always verify that the safety
functions (three-position enabling device and emergency stop) work and are
not damaged.
•
Always use and store the FlexPendant in such a way that the cable does not
become a tripping hazard.
•
When not using the device, place it so it does not accidentally fall.
•
Never use sharp objects (such as screwdriver or pen) for operating the touch
screen. This could damage the touch screen. Instead use your finger or a
stylus.
•
Never clean the FlexPendant with solvents, scouring agent, or scrubbing
sponges.
See the product manual for the robot controller, section Cleaning the
FlexPendant.
•
Always close the protective cap on the USB port when no USB device is
connected. The port can break or malfunction if exposed to dirt or dust.
CAUTION
The FlexPendant touch screen is made of glass. If the device is dropped on a
hard surface or receives a significant impact the glass could break. To reduce
the risk of cuts if the glass chips or cracks, do not touch or attempt to remove
the broken glass.
•
Make sure that nobody trips over the cable to prevent the device from falling
to the ground.
•
Do not squeeze and thus damage the cable.
•
Do not lay the cable over sharp edges.
