OPERATOR’S MANUAL
series  Robot Controller
 (3) Cautions 
•  In the "EX. 232C" mode and "EX. ETHER" mode, the "stop" signal is invalid. 
•  In the external control signal mode, stop by data communication is 
ineffective.   
•  For the "stop" signal and data communication, see the Interface Manual and 
Communication Manual, respectively. 
 
8.6.3 BREAK 
 (1) Function 
Immediately decelerates and stops the robot, and stops an automatic operation.   
This function is used to interrupt the automatic operation. 
 (2) Procedures 
  (a)  Step 1:  Input of BREAK. 
  •  Teach pendant:  Press the function key corresponding to the BREAK menu. 
  •  "Stop" signal (only in the external control signal mode): 
Input the "break" signal.    (For details, see the Interface 
Manual.) 
    The robot immediately slows down and stops to stop the automatic operation.   
(In the TS3000, when BREAK is input, the STOP LED on the controller front 
panel turns on.) 
The RUN LED on the controller front panel turns off when the automatic 
operation has stopped.    "STOP (RETRY)" is shown under "S" (execution 
status) on the teach pendant display.
