2.2.1 Operation rights
Only one device is allowed to operate the controller (i.e., send commands for operation and servo on, etc.)
at the same time, even if several devices, such as T/Bs or PCs, are connected to the controller.This limited
device "has the operation rights".
Operations that start the robot, such as program start and error reset, and operations that can cause starting
require the operation rights. Conversely, operation that stop the robot, such as stopping and servo OFF, can
be used without the operation rights for safety purposes.
Table 2-1:Relation of setting switches and operation rights
○
:Has operation rights, X:Does not have operation rights
Note 1) When the "operation right input signal (IOENA)" is input from an external device, the external signal
has the operation rights, and the personal computer's operation rights are disabled.
Note 2) If the [MODE] switch is set to "AUTOMATIC" when the T/B is set to "ENABLE", the error 5000 will
occur.
