Can the beeping sound that is heard when using the TP-RC7/8 Full Size Teach Pendant be disabled or turned off?

Answer

No, the teach pendant buzzer cannot be disabled.

If in a quiet environment, there are some options to help mitigate the sound of the buzzer:

When using the teaching pendant.

- Using the Jump button instead of scrolling down: Displaying and Changing Variable Screen

- Pressing the SHIFT button and Down Arrow on the pendant is like a page down.

Using Wincaps in Debug Mode

- Using Debugging (user manual link) Using Debugging

- Useful when testing a program (you can turn on the motor from Wincaps and see the program running from the PC

Using Virtual TP application software from Robot Tools

- This allows you to view and navigate the teach pendant menu remotely from your PC (only in Manual Mode).

Note: There will still be some things that you need the Teach Pendant for, like Jogging the robot.
