STAND-BY FUNCTION
With the Stand-by function it is possible to save current consumption when the robot is stationary. This func
-
tion is activated automatically when the controller is in the local automatic or remote automatic
state and when the robot has been stationary since a length of time that can be defined in the $TUNE [27]
variable; the effect is that of activating the motor brakes to maintain the static position of the robot. The value
of the $TUNE [27] variable set by COMAU SYSTEMS is 10 seconds; setting this variable to 0, the function is
deactivated.
The Stand-by function is automatically deactivated at the first system request to resume motion (START, RE
-
SUME).
The Stand-by function can be displayed only with the Display Arm Status (DAS) command which shows the
state of the Arm drives as “STB” instead of “ON” or “OFF”.
When the Stand-by function is active the controller motors are on DRIVE ON and the control
-
ler state is local automatic or remote automatic . Strictly follow the safety rules
concerning this controller operating condition (see chapter 1).
