General Information about the Interface

2.1Standard Mode and Compatible Mode

The robot controller can be operated in two different modes – standard mode and compatible mode. The default is standard mode. Select either mode before operating the robot controller.

In the standard mode, all of the advantages can be expected from the new model of the robot controller by simultaneously running two or more programs with multitasking.

The compatible mode focuses on compatibility with conventional DENSO robots. Use this mode whenever compatibility is required. For example, when replacing a conventional robot with a new model. However, there are some restrictions on the use of new functions, such as multitasking, in this mode.

2.2Switching between Modes

Switch from one mode to the other using the teach pendant or the PC teaching system.

Caution: After switching between those modes, restart the robot controller to make the new setting go into effect.
