1.2.3.6. Safe use of the FlexPendant

NOTE!

The enabling device is a push-button located on the side of the FlexPendant which, when

pressed halfway in, switches the system to MOTORS ON. When the enabling device is

released or pushed all the way in, the manipulator switches to the MOTORS OFF state.

To ensure safe use of the FlexPendant, the following must be implemented:

• The enabling device must never be rendered inoperational in any way.

• During programming and testing, the enabling device must be released as soon as

there is no need for the manipulator to move.

• The programmer must always bring the FlexPendant with him/her when entering the

manipulator's working space. This is to prevent anyone else from taking control of the

manipulator without the programmer’s knowledge.

Enabling device

The enabling device is a manually operated, constant pressure push-button which, when

continuously activated in one position only, allows potentially hazardous functions but does

not initiate them. In any other position, hazardous functions are stopped safely.

The enabling device is of a specific type where you must press the push-button only half-way

to activate it. In the fully in and fully out positions, manipulator operation is impossible.

Hold-to-run function

The hold-to-run function allows movement when a button connected to the function is

actuated manually and immediately stops any movement when released. The hold-to-run

function can only be used in manual mode.

How to operate the hold-to-run function is described in Operating manual - IRC5 with

FlexPendant.
