1.2.6.2 What is a safety stop or protective stop?
Definition of safety stops
A safety stop is a state that stops all robot motion and removes power to the robot
drive actuators. There is no recovery procedure. You need only to restore motor
power to recover from a safety stop. Safety stop is also called protective stop.
The robot system is configured so that the safety stop results in a category 0 stop,
immediately stopping the robot actions by disconnecting power from the motors.
Note
The safety stop function may only be used for the purpose and under the
conditions for which it is intended.
Note
Safety stop should not be used for normal program stops as this causes extra,
unnecessary wear on the manipulator.
For how to perform normal program stops, see section Stopping programs in
Operating manual - IRC5 with FlexPendant.
