The robot computer is connected to the safety PLCvia an Ethernet cable. The safety PLC
sends all of the statuses of its various inputs to the robot computer so the information can be
sent to the robot interface. This enables you to identify which part of the safety system may
be causing a Protective or Emergency stop.
Additionally, the robot computer sends the current robot state to the power MiR board,
which regulates the status lights making them indicate which state the robot is in.

signal the current status of the robot.
