2.1 Remote Mode
2-2
In remote mode, operations on the programming pendant are valid except the operation-
related entries. This holds true in “I/O remote enable” and “Command remote enable” sub-
modes. The concept is based on the conventional I/O control introduced to command control.
Note that the edit-related operations cannot be entered from more than one operating device.
In “Command remote enable” submode, to enable command remote controls only, issue the
HLOCK command. When the HLOCK command is ON, operations on the programming pen-
dant are valid only hold and emergency stop. Also the following I/O operations are disabled :
selection between remote mode and local mode, external start, external servo ON, cycle
selection, I/O prohibit, P.P/PANEL prohibit, and master job call. Other I/O operations are valid.
