Operator window
The operator window displays messages from robot programs. This usually happens when the
program needs some kind of operator response in order to continue. This is described in
section Operator window in Operating manual - IRC5 with FlexPendant.
Status bar
The status bar displays important information about system status, such as operating mode,
motors on/off, program state and so on. This is described in section Status bar in Operating
manual - IRC5 with FlexPendant.
Close button
Tapping the close button closes the presently active view or application.
Task bar
You can open several views from the ABB menu, but only work with one at a time. The task
bar displays all open views and is used to switch between these.
Quickset menu
The quickset menu provides settings for jogging and program execution. This is described in
section The Quickset menu in Operating manual - IRC5 with FlexPendant.
Handling and cleaning
• Handle with care. Do not drop, throw, or give the FlexPendant strong shock. It may
cause breakage or failure.
• When not using the device, hang it on the wall bracket provided for storage so that it
cannot fall to the ground by accident, or that nobody can trip over the cable.
• Never use sharp objects (e.g. screwdriver or pen) for operating the touch screen. This
could damage the touch screen. Instead try a stylus, normally used for a PDA.
• Never clean the device with solvents, scouring agent, or scrubbing sponges. For
cleaning the device, use a soft cloth and a bit of water or mild cleaning agent. See
Product manual - IRC5, section Cleaning the FlexPendant.
