1 Emergency safety information
1.1 Stopping the robot and switching off the power
Emergency stop buttons
Press any of the emergency stop buttons immediately if a person is at risk in the
working area of the robot, or if the robot causes harm to equipment.
There can be more than one emergency stop button depending on the cell design.
Main switch
The controller has one main power switch, usually located on the front.
Note
Your plant or cell may have additional equipment that may also need to be
disconnected from the power. See your plant or cell documentation where these
switches are placed.
Each connected drive module, or other connected modules such as a spotwelding
cabinet, has its own main power switch. On other types of cabinets, the power
switch is often placed top left on the front of the cabinet.
WARNING
It is only the main switch on the drive module that will switch off the power to
the entire system in a MultiMove system (control module and drive module) if
the power supply to the control module comes from the drive module.
Recovering from emergency stop
Make sure the hazardous situation that resulted in the emergency stop condition
no longer exists before resetting the emergency stop button.
All push-button style emergency stop buttons have a latching feature that must be
released in order to remove the emergency stop condition.
All automatic emergency stop devices also have some kind of latching feature that
must be released. See your plant or cell documentation.
