Pause Signal

Using the Banner Safety Controller it is possible to enable a Pause signal from outside inputs. This action will function identically to a user hitting the selector knob during a task, which will stop the robot, then toggling run continue.

Requirements

Banner Retrofit Kit and the new Banner configuration must be installed to use this functionality.
