Verifying E-Stop Functions

Verify that all E-Stop devices are functional (pendant, Front Panel, and user-supplied). Test
each mushroom button, safety gate, light curtain, etc., by enabling high power and then open-
ing the safety device. The High Power push button/light on the Front Panel should go out.

Verify Robot Motions

Use the pendant (or jog control) to test the motion of each axis on the robot to confirm it moves
in the proper directions.

Refer to the

Adept T20 Pendant User's Guide

or the

Adept T2 Pendant User’s Guide

for instructions

on using the pendant.

If the optional pendant is not installed in the system, you can move the robot using the Robot
Jog Control in the Adept ACE software. For details, see the

Adept ACE User’s Guide

.

NOTE: When using a pendant with an Adept Viper robot, the Free mode is dis-
abled for safety reasons.
