Using the robot without the IMM

This section describes how to use an IMMI configured robot without the IMM.

Disconnecting the IMM from the IMMI module triggers any Emergency Stops, rendering the robot unusable. A bypass plug closes the emergency and safety signals. Use the bypass plug to allow the robot to function normally without being connected to the IMM.

The Control Box IP rating is maintained, when the bypass plug is connected.

Connecting the bypass plug

To connect the bypass plug

  1. Unclamp the safety clamps and unplug the IMM from the IMMI module.

  2. Do not try to clear the System Emergency Stop message that appears on PolyScope.

  3. Plug the bypass plug into the IMMI module and secure the safety clamps.

  4. On PolyScope, tap Go to initialization screen to start the robot.
