Moving a robot with PROFIsafe without PLC

  • Hi,


    With the X11 safety interface you could move the robot in T1 mode as long as the safety circuits were closed...

    A new project is planned with PROFIsafe and I am afraid that I cannot do anything in parallel with the PLC programmer... if the PLC is not in the state that I require.


    Is this assumption correct? I definitely need the PLC up and running to do anything with the robot?

    And I know I need a Safety PLC not a regular one aswell.


    Thank you,

  • You can jog the robot only if you are in the Set-up mode, but yes, if you want to move your robot (T1), you can do it even if you have not the safety PLC already up and running. Be sure that your WoV configuration is correct.

    I read the manual.
