Operating manual - OmniCore
3HAC065036-001 Revision: E
• Service routines can be started only in manual mode or in manual full speed
mode.
• The program must be stopped and there has to be a program pointer.
• If the service routine contains parts that must be carried out in automatic
mode, then the program pointer must not be moved manually before starting
the service routine. The program pointer should be where the program flow
was stopped.
WARNING
If a service routine is started in the middle of a stopped movement instruction
(that is, before the end position is reached), then the movement will be resumed
when the execution of the service routine starts.
CAUTION
Once a service routine is started, aborting it might not resume the system to its
previous state, as the routine might have moved the robot arm.
Note
Before running the service routine change the operating mode to Manual (manual
reduced speed) mode or Man FS (manual full speed) mode.
