Three-position enabling device
CAUTION
The person using the three-position enabling device is responsible to observe
the safeguarded area for hazards due to robot motion and any other hazards
controlled by the robot.
The three-position enabling device is a manually operated, constant pressure
push-button which, when in center-enabled position, allows potentially hazardous
functions.
The three-position enabling device will when continuously held in center-enabled
position permit robot motion and any hazards controlled by the robot. Release of
or compression past the center-enabled position will stop the hazard, for example,
robot motion.
CAUTION
For safe use of the three-position enabling device, the following must be
implemented:
• The three-position enabling device must never be rendered inoperational
in any way.
• If there is a need to enter safeguarded space, always bring the three-position
enabling device. This is to enforce single point of control.
CAUTION
The single point of control cannot be guaranteed in automatic mode. External
clients cannot be denied access.
