• The power supply ratings of the industrial robot correspond to the
local supply voltage and mains type.
• The ground conductor and the equipotential bonding cable are suffi-
ciently rated and correctly connected.
• The connecting cables are correctly connected and the connectors are
locked.
3.5.4 Manual mode
Manual mode is the mode for setup work. Setup work is all the tasks that
have to be carried out on the industrial robot to enable automatic opera-
tion. Setup work includes:
• Jog mode
• Teaching
• Programming
• Program verification
The following must be taken into consideration in manual mode:
• If the drives are not required, they must be switched off to prevent the
manipulator or the external axes (optional) from being moved uninten-
tionally.
• New or modified programs must always be tested first in Manual Re-
duced Velocity mode (T1).
• The manipulator, tooling or external axes (optional) must never touch
or project beyond the safety fence.
• Workpieces, tooling and other objects must not become jammed as a
result of the industrial robot motion, nor must they lead to
short-circuits or be liable to fall off.
• All setup work must be carried out, where possible, from outside the
safeguarded area.
If the setup work has to be carried out inside the safeguarded area, the
following must be taken into consideration:
In Manual Reduced Velocity mode (T1):
• If it can be avoided, there must be no other persons inside the safe-
guarded area.
If it is necessary for there to be several persons inside the safeguar-
ded area, the following must be observed:
‒ Each person must have an enabling device.
‒ All persons must have an unimpeded view of the industrial robot.
‒ Eye-contact between all persons must be possible at all times.
• The operator must be so positioned that he can see into the danger
area and get out of harm’s way.
In Manual High Velocity mode (T2):
• This mode may only be used if the application requires a test at a ve-
locity higher than possible in T1 mode.
• Teaching and programming are not permissible in this operating mode.
• Before commencing the test, the operator must ensure that the ena-
bling devices are operational.
• The operator must be positioned outside the danger zone.
• There must be no other persons inside the safeguarded area. It is the
responsibility of the operator to ensure this.
