Operating personnel
Stop category 1 The manipulator and any external axes (optional) perform path-main-
taining braking.
Operating mode T1: The drives are deactivated as soon as the robot
has stopped, but no later than after 680 ms.
Operating modes T2, AUT (KR C4), AUT EXT (KR C4), EXT
(VKR C4):
The drives are switched off after 1.5 s.
Note: This stop category is called STOP 1 in this document.
Stop category 1 -
Drive Ramp Stop
The manipulator and any external axes (optional) perform path-oriented
braking.
Operating mode T1: The drives are deactivated as soon as the robot
has stopped, but no later than after 680 ms.
Operating modes T2, AUT (KR C4), AUT EXT (KR C4), EXT
(VKR C4):
The drives are switched off after 1.5 s.
Note: This stop category is called STOP 1 - DRS in this document.
Stop category 2 The drives are not deactivated and the brakes are not applied. The
manipulator and any external axes (optional) are braked with a path-

Note: This stop category is called STOP 2 in this document.
System integrator
(plant integrator)
The system integrator is responsible for safely integrating the industrial
robot into a complete system and commissioning it.
T1 Test mode, Manual Reduced Velocity (<= 250 mm/s)
T2 Test mode, Manual High Velocity (> 250 mm/s permissible)
External axis Axis of motion that does not belong to the manipulator, yet is controlled
with the robot controller. e.g. KUKA linear unit, turn-tilt table, Posiflex
Term Description
