1.2 Design and Installation Safety
Only trained personnel should design and install the robot system. Trained
personnel are defined as those who have taken robot system training held by the
manufacturer, dealer, or local representative company, or those who understand the
manuals thoroughly and have the same knowledge and skill level as those who
have completed the training courses.
To ensure safety, a safeguard must be installed for the robot system. For details
on the safeguard, refer to the Installation and Design Precautions in the Safety
chapter of the EPSON RC+ User’s Guide.
The following items are safety precautions for design personnel:
■
Personnel who design and/or construct the robot system with this
product must read the

to understand the safety requirements before designing and/or
constructing the robot system. Designing and/or constructing the
robot system without understanding the safety requirements is
extremely hazardous, and may result in serious bodily injury and/or
severe equipment damage to the robot system.
■
The Manipulator and the Controller must be used within the
