the setting for manual or automatic resume, refer to the relevant contents in the Software
Manual. While the SF3 External Safeguard-Pause is triggered, both robot and pillar motion will
pause. While SF4 External Safeguard-Human-Machine Safety Settings is triggered, the robot will
enter lower speed set in Human-Machine Safety Settings and the pillar motion will pause.
Refer to the table below for the stop category and the reaction of fault detection of the safety
functions. The functions come with the discrepancy detection to maintain the safety status when
detecting different signal from dual channel input. When C1 discrepancy occurs, the system will
enter and lock in a safety status. To resume from the safety status, first check the input wiring,
correct it, and let the dual inputs open and close again, to enable the robot to the resume status
of the safety function. When any fault other than discrepancy detected in the safety functions,
the system performs a Cat. 0 stop. When Cat. 0 stop occurs, reboot the robot system to recover
from Cat.0 stop status.
