Note If a teaching pendant or PC software is connected, the servo is turned OFF, and then the
teaching pendant/PC software is removed, all before the control establishes communication
with the host, the servo cannot be turned ON/OFF via commands received from with the host.
In this case, restore the controller power, or make sure the connected tool of the SIO port is
removed while the servo is ON.
