Reduced Mode can be initiated by a safety plane/
boundary (starts when at 2cm of the plane and reduced
mode settings are achieved within 2cm of the plane) or
by use of an input to initiate (will achieve reduced
settings within 500ms). When the external connections
are Low, Reduced Mode is initiated. Reduced Mode
means that ALL reduced mode limits are ACTIVE.
Reduced mode is not a safety function, rather it is a state
affecting the settings of the following safety function
limits: joint position, joint speed, TCP pose limit, TCP
speed, TCP force, momentum, power, stopping time, and
stopping distance.

INPUT
When the external Enabling Device connections are Low,
a Safeguard Stop (SF2) is initiated. Recommendation:
Use with a mode switch as a safety input. If a mode
switch is not used and connected to the safety inputs,
then the robot mode will be determined by the User
Interface. If the User Interface is in:
•
“run mode”, the enabling device will not be active.
•
“programming mode”, the enabling device will be
active. It is possible to use password protection
for changing the mode by the User Interface.
