The Teach Pendant is equipped with an EMERGENCY STOP switch. Before operating the Teach Pendant, make sure that the EMERGENCY STOP switch on the Teach Pendant functions properly. Operating the Teach Pendant when the switch does not function properly is extremely hazardous and may result in serious bodily injury and/or serious damage to the equipment, as the switch cannot fulfill its intended function in an emergency.
When nothing appears on its display window, the Teach Pendant is not connected with the Controller. In this case, the EMERGENCY STOP switch on the Teach Pendant will not function.
If the Teach Pendant is not connected to the controller, DO NOT place it within easy reach during operation. You might press the EMERGENCY STOP switch on the unconnected Teach Pendant by mistake to stop the robot system in an emergency. Pressing the EMERGENCY STOP switch on the disconnected Teach Pendant in an emergency is extremely hazardous and may cause serious safety problems.
When entering the safeguarded area for teaching, change the mode of the Teach Pendant to TEACH and take out the key for the mode selector key switch and then enter the safeguarded area with the key. Leaving the key in the mode selector key switch is extremely hazardous and may cause serious safety problems as someone else may inadvertently change the mode to the automatic operation.

Do not bend or pull the cables forcibly.) The unnecessary strain on the cables may result in damage to the cables, disconnection, and/or contact failure. Damaged cables, disconnection, or contact failure is extremely hazardous and may result in electric shock and/or improper function of the system. Do not use the cables near heat or fire.
