I have a new robot with the External Mode Selector option. I'd like to know if I can bypass this and use the SOP selector switch for a demo I need to perform.
I'm a Fanuc newb so be gentle...

Hey,
DCS IO : SSO[6] and SSO[7] control the mode with external select. By default, they are off and that relates to Auto mode active. If you want to run a program in Auto with SOP, I guess you can just select a program on TP and hit CycleStart using SOP.
If you are trying to put the teachpendant in T1 mode, you can write up one line logic in Menu-->System-->DCS--> (2)Safe I/O Connect
SSO[6]= SSI[6] (SSI[6] is ON when Controller and TP estops are Ok)
OR
SSO[6]=ON
On DCS screen,you will need to hit Apply. It will prompt for Code,default is 1111. It should perform cold start and you should be good use TP in T1.
If you want T2 mode, set SSO[6] and SSO[7] ON.
See attached.
