10 Safety Configuration
10.1 Introduction
The robot is equipped with an advanced safety system. Depending on the particular characteris-
tics of the robot workspace, the settings for the safety system must be configured to guarantee the
safety of all personnel and equipment around the robot. Applying settings defined by the risk as-
sessment is the first thing the integrator must do. For details on the safety system, see the Hardware
Installation Manual.
DANGER:
1. Use and configuration of safety-related functions and interfaces
must be done according to the risk assessment that the integra-
tor conducts for a specific robot application, see the Hardware
Installation Manual.
2. Safety configuration settings for set-up and teaching must be
applied according to the risk assessment conducted by the inte-
grator and before the robot arm is powered on for the first time.
3. All safety configuration settings accessible on this screen and its
subtabs are required to be set according to the risk assessment
conducted by the integrator.
4. The integrator is required to ensure that all changes to the safety
configuration settings are done in compliance with the integra-
tor’s own risk assessment.
5. The integrator must prevent unauthorized persons from chang-
ing the safety configuration, e.g. by use of password protection.
The Safety Configuration screen can be accessed from the Welcome screen (see 11.4) by press-
ing the Program Robot button, selecting the Installation tab and tapping Safety. The safety
configuration is password protected, see 10.8.
