1. XFP connector
Connects to the XFP connector on the AIB XPANEL cable on an i600/i800 robot.
2. System 5 V Power-On LED
Indicates whether or not power is connected to the robot.
3. Manual/Automatic Mode Switch
Switches between Manual and Automatic mode. In Automatic mode, executing programs
control the robot, and the robot can run at full speed. In Manual mode, the system limits robot
speed and torque so that an operator can safely work in the cell. Manual mode initiates
software restrictions on robot speed, commanding no more than 250 mm/sec.
4. High Power On/Off Switch and Lamp
Controls high power, which is the flow of current to the robot motors. Enabling high power is
a two-step process. An “Enable Power” request must be sent from the user-supplied PC, an
executing program, or the T2 pendant. Once this request has been made and the High Power
On/Off lamp/button is blinking, the operator must press and release this button, and high
power will be enabled.
NOTE: The use of the blinking High Power button can be configured (or
eliminated) in software. Your system may not require this step.
NOTE: If enabled, the Front Panel button must be pressed while blinking
(default time-out is 10 seconds). If the button stops blinking, you must
enable power again.
5. Emergency Stop Switch
The E-Stop is a dual-channel, passive E-Stop that supports Category 3 CE safety requirements.
Pressing this button turns off high power to the robot motors.
