• Before leng Panda execute a task by way of trial, take note of the safety
instrucons in chapter: Safety concept/ (in parcular: Step Back and
check).
• In addion, the unlocking tool must be within immediate reach of the Arm.
By no means may it stay inserted into the emergency unlock openings of
the Arm!
The philosophy of step back and check ensures the safety of the user during
execuon of root movements by way of trial. It is based on the principle that
humans are safely separated from possibly dangerous movements.
Therefore:
• The user has to leave the hazardous area during the execuon of a
robot movement and needs to also make sure that no other persons
are within the Safety Area.
• The robot movement is to be triggered only when paying full aenon
to the movement.
WARNING
If all acvated apps for a task have been taught completely, it can be executed out
by pressing the “Play” buon. This is only possible if the robot has been released
via the external enabling device for movement (X4). The robot is lit blue if it has
been enabled. Aer starng the task Panda starts to be lit green. The currently
executable app is displayed with a green frame.
Change the speed for the Task execuon by clicking on the Task name in the
meline.
Right-clicking on one or several Apps opens a select menu, from wich you can
acvate, deacvate or delete individual Apps. Only acvated Apps are executed
and need to have been taught.
If an error occurs, such as a collision, program execuon is stopped. The failed
App is bordered in blue and an error descripon is displayed. In this mode, the
Arm can be moved using guiding and any causes of error can be eliminated. If an
error stops program execuon, further informaon on the error and how to elim-
inate it is displayed in the robot “trac light” in the sidebar. By pressing the“Play”
symbol on one of the apps, the task execuon can carry on with the correspond-
ing app or Group, or the task ended by pressing the “Stop” buon.
