This section covers how to access the robot safety settings. It is made up of items that help you
set up the robot Safety Configuration.
WARNING
Before you configure your robot safety settings, your integrator must conduct a risk
assessment to guarantee the safety of personnel and equipment around the robot.
A risk assessment is an evaluation of all work procedures throughout the robot
lifetime, conducted in order to apply correct safety configuration settings
(see Hardware Installation Manual ). You must set the following in
accordance with the integrator's risk assessment.
1. The integrator must prevent unauthorized persons from changing the safety
configuration e.g. installing password protection.
2. Use and configuration of the safety-related functions and interfaces for a
specific robot application (see Hardware Installation Manual ).
3. Safety configuration settings for set-up and teaching before the robot arm is
powered on for the first time.
4. All safety configuration settings accessible on this screen and sub-tabs.
5. The integrator must ensure that all changes to the safety configuration
settings comply with the risk assessment.
