2.7. Direct Teach Function
The direct teach function allows you to create a job (or teach the manipulator) without holding the
teaching pendant in your hand.
More specifically, it provides the following two teaching methods:
・ Moving the robot using the hand guiding
・ Adding operation instructions to the job (teaching) using the direct teach button
The "hand guiding" refers to directly moving the manipulator by hand in the teach mode.
You can configure the settings on the dedicated screen on the programming pendant and move the
manipulator by hand with the job edit screen displayed.
Teaching by using the direct teach button is only supported by the MOTOMAN-HCxxDT (the type
equipped with the direct teach button).
With the MOTOMAN-HCxx (the type not equipped with the direct teach button), you can move the
robot using the hand guiding but you must use the programming pendant to add operation
instructions.
For more information on how to use the hand guiding and the direct teach button, refer to "3.7
Teaching the Manipulator with the Direct Teach Function".
