(3) Internally controlled automatic operation
Operation of the robot according to files (programs and position data) loaded to the controller
is called the "automatic operation." The automatic operation can be controlled internally and
externally.
Start and stop of the robot through the control panel of the controller is called the "internally
controlled automatic operation."
Note: Automatic operation is possible by connecting or disconnecting the teach pendant to
or from the controller.
When the teach pendant is disconnected, connect a dummy plug to the teach
pendant connector. Unless the dummy plug is connected, the servo power cannot
be turned on.
(4) Externally controlled automatic operation
Automatic start and stop of the robot with external signals is called the "externally controlled
automatic operation."
(5) Floppy disk
Files (programs and position data) stored in the controller can be saved in floppy disks (3.5
inch), using an optional FDD unit. It is also possible to load the data in the floppy disks into
the controller.
(6) Automatic operation, using optical sensors (option)
Automatic operation is possible by using an optical sensor system while recognizing the items
subject to the operation and compensating position data.
