About this topic
All safety equipment supplied with the G5486A BenchBot Robot (workstation
configuration) will be installed for you. Changing the installed workstation

This topic explains the function of the BenchBot Disable Hub and describes
the two interlock key settings.
BenchBot Disable Hub description
The BenchBot Disable Hub is a central connection point for the BenchBot
Robot and other devices. The hub:
•
Provides the emergency- stop function for up to two BenchBot Robots and
four devices that are equipped with emergency- stop circuitry.
•
Receives interlock circuit signals from system doors or the Light Curtain,
and transmits them to the robots and devices.
•
Allows access for teaching the BenchBot Robot by muting, or overriding,
the interlock circuit, placing the BenchBot Robot in the reduced speed
mode and disabling other devices.
Interlock key settings
An interlock key at the front of the hub can be set at:
•
Normal . The interlock system is turned on. Under normal operating
conditions, the key setting should be set at Normal.
•
Bypass . The interlock system is muted, or overridden. When teaching the
BenchBot Robot, use the Bypass key setting.

The following sections describe the behavior of the robot and devices under
each key setting.
WARNING
Access to and use of the interlock key should be controlled. To avoid
possible injury, the Interlock Bypass setting should be used only by personnel trained to
teach the BenchBot Robot. The interlock key should be removed from the hub when not
teaching the BenchBot Robot.
