Abstract: A robot system comprising a robot arm controlled by a process controller according to a combination of basic software and process software and a safety controller configured to monitor and evaluate operation of a robot arm. The basic software is associated with safety limits having normal values limiting operation of the robot arm. The process software is associated with at least one safety limit having a process value which is different from the normal value. The value of a safety limit is configured to be updated with the process value while the robot system is in run-time mode and the robot safety controller is configured to bring the robot arm into a violation stop mode based on the result of an evaluation of an operation parameter, the normal value and the process value of the at least one safety limit.

Abstract: A robot system comprising a robot arm, a robot controller for controlling the robot arm and a safety system monitoring the robot arm, where the safety system is configured to bring the robot arm into a safe mode based on at least one safety function evaluated by the safety system. The robot controller is configured to. specify at least one user-defined safety parameter range; provide the user-defined safety parameter range to the safety system; generate at least one user-defined safety parameter based on at least one user-defined safety function; provide the user-defined safety parameter to the safety system; where the safety system comprises a safety range safety monitoring function configured to: evaluating if the at least one user-defined safety parameter is within the user-defined safety range, and 15. bringing the robot arm into a safe mode in case the user-defined safety parameter is outside the user-defined safety range.
