What key must be on before you press ENTER in order to modify a command?

• A. The INSERT key
• B. The ASSIST key
• C. The ENTER key
• D. The MODIFY key

Answer: (D)

To edit or change a command on the Motoman teach pendant, you must first put the system into Modify mode. The key used to do this is the MODIFY key; when it’s activated, the device switches from its normal execution or navigation mode into an editing mode. Only in that mode does pressing ENTER apply or save the changes to the selected command. Without enabling MODIFY, ENTER won’t let you edit and may perform a default action instead. The other keys aren’t used to enable editing: INSERT is for adding new commands, ENTER is just a confirm/execute action in most modes, and ASSIST is for help or assisted features. So, you must have the MODIFY key enabled before pressing ENTER to modify a command.
