16.9. Operational Mode Selection
Description Operational Modes are enabled when you configure a Three-Position Enabling
Device, set a password, define an Operational Mode Configurable I/O, or via the
Dasboard Server. (see Using the Dashboard Serveron page136)
You can set the robot in automatic mode and in manual mode:
Automatic Mode Once activated, the robot can only perform pre-defined tasks. The
Move Tab and Freedrive Mode are unavailable if a Three-Position Enabling Device is
configured. You cannot modify or save programs and installations.
Manual Mode Once activated, you can program the robot using the Move Tab,
Freedrive Mode and Speed Slider. You can modify and save programs and
installations.
WARNING
Automatic Mode Safeguard Stop can only be activated in Automatic
Mode, so the safeguard’s protective function is only active in
Automatic Mode.
