Functions & Installation    1. Safety 

 

TP1  Rev.5

 

 

  Only authorized personnel who have taken the safety training should be allowed 

to maintain the robot system. 
The safety training is the program for industrial robot operator that follows the 
laws and regulations of each nation.    The personnel who have taken the safety 
training acquire knowledge of industrial robots (operations, teaching, etc.), 
knowledge of inspections, and knowledge of related rules/regulations.  The 
personnel who have completed the robot system-training and 
maintenance-training classes held by the manufacturer, dealer, or locally 
incorporated company are allowed to maintain the robot system. 

 Immediately press the EMERGENCY STOP switch whenever you suspect any 

danger. 
The Teach Pendant is equipped with an EMERGENCY STOP switch.    Before 
operating the Teach Pendant, make sure that the EMERGENCY STOP switch 
on the Teach Pendant functions properly.  Operating the Teach Pendant when 
the switch does not function properly is extremely hazardous and may result in 
serious bodily injury and/or serious damage to the equipment, as the switch 
cannot fulfill its intended function in an emergency. 
When nothing appears on its display window, the Teach Pendant is not 
connected with the Controller.    In this case, the EMERGENCY STOP switch on 
the Teach Pendant will not function. 

 If the Teach Pendant is not connected to the controller, DO NOT place it within 

easy reach during operation.    You might press the EMERGENCY STOP switch 
on the unconnected Teach Pendant by mistake to stop the robot system in an 
emergency.  Pressing the EMERGENCY STOP switch on the disconnected 
Teach Pendant in an emergency is extremely hazardous and may cause 
serious safety problems. 

 

WARNING 

 When entering the safeguarded area for teaching, change the mode of the 

Teach Pendant to TEACH and take out the key for the mode selector key switch 
and then enter the safeguarded area with the key.  Leaving the key in the 
mode selector key switch is extremely hazardous and may cause serious safety 
problems as someone else may inadvertently change the mode to the automatic 
operation. 

 

 

WARNING 

 Be sure to connect the cables between the Controller and the Teach Pendant 

properly.  Do not allow unnecessary strain on the cables. (Do not put heavy 
objects on the cables. Do not bend or pull the cables forcibly.)  The 
unnecessary strain on the cables may result in damage to the cables, 
disconnection, and/or contact failure.  Damaged cables, disconnection, or 
contact failure is extremely hazardous and may result in electric shock and/or 
improper function of the system.    Do not use the cables near heat or fire.
