Hello everyone, Matt here.
Anyone ever see these messages before?
"Collision protection device triggered: Safe retraction is activated"
and
"For safety reasons, program mode is not allowed for safe retraction."
Here's what happened. I was testing/editing a program, moved the robot, and triggered the collision detection device (a CAT2 from Binzel-Abicor). The robot stopped (I believe the collision detection unit is wired into the E-Stop circuit) and no damage occurred. After moving the robot to a safe position, when I try to run a program, I get the 2 messages shown above.
It seems like I need to reset something but I don't know what.
I cannot find any information on "safe retraction" in any of the Kuka documentation. I also can't seem to find any kind of troubleshooting guide.
Thoughts?
