I just started working with Motomans a lot this summer, so I'm still pretty new to them. What does the play function do?

Is your means play mode function?

On the key you have 3 settings.
turn it completley to the right and you are in teach mode.
This means that you are in control of the robot and can stear it with the buttons on the pendant,
build programs etc.
the middle position is play mode.
Before you go to play, you select a program (in teach mode) then switch to play, activate the servo's
and push the big green button on top of the pendant.
The program will now run full speed (keep safety in mind).
The left option is remote mode.
This means that if you have an external play, pauze or other connections, you will be able
to let the program run by using this external (self build) controller instead of the pendant.
This is how I use it, that doen't mean its totally correct
