IMPORTANT The persistent warning message text ‘Safe Torque Off bypassed’
appears when a motion direct command is executed.
Warning message persists even after the dialog is closed and
reopened as long as the integrated safety drive is in STO Bypass
mode.
The persistent warning message is removed only after the integrated
safety drive is restored to the Safe state.
