Abstract
A method for verifying the assignment of a drive to a control device of an industrial robot. A drive, comprising at least one actuator and a motion sensor, is assigned to one of the axles of the robot. The assignment is verified by outputting a suitable test signal from the control device to the drive, and comparing the output test signal with motion signals generated by the motion sensor.
