Abstract
A control system for a surgical robotic system, the surgical robotic system comprising a remote surgeon console having a surgeon input device, and a surgical robot arm comprising a series of joints extending from a base to a terminal end for attaching to a surgical instrument, the surgical robot arm operable in a full power mode in which the joints of the surgical robot arm are powered by a first power source and a reduced power mode in which the joints of the surgical robot arm are powered by a second power source, the control system configured to: whilst the surgical robot arm is operating in the full power mode, control the surgical robot arm in a surgical mode by converting movements of the surgeon input device to control signals for moving joints of the surgical robot arm; detect a power failure of the first power source; in response to detecting the power failure, enable the reduced power mode, and transition control of the surgical robot arm from the surgical mode to a standby mode; whilst in the reduced power mode, receive a command from a user input located on or adjacent to the surgical robot arm or on the surgeon console; and in response to receiving the command, transition control of the surgical robot arm from the standby mode to a calibration mode.
