Freedrive Input

Description

Freedrive input is recommended to be used with 3PE TP and/or 3 Position Enabling Device input.

When Freedrive INPUT is High, the robot will only enter Freedrive if the following conditions are satisfied:

  • 3PE TP button is not pressed

  • 3 Position Enabling Device INPUT either not configured or not pressed (INPUT Low)

 

Freedrive Enabled Input

On UR8 Long robots, the Freedrive Enabled Input and 3-Position Switch safety functions can be assigned to the Tool Inputs on the application Safety screen.

 

This functionality is currently only available on the UR8 Long robots. On all other robot types, the new Tool Inputs section is not shown on the Safety I/O screen.

 

When the Tool inputs are assigned a Safety Function, it is not possible to rename a Tool input or assign a Tool input an action on the Communication Tool IO screen.
