Abstract
A control system includes: a manual operating device that generates an operation signal in accordance with rotation of a dial by an operator; a machine tool controller and a robot controller that are connected in such a manner as to be communicable with each other and that control a machine tool and a robot, respectively, based on the operation signal; and an operational-target setting unit that sets an operational target for the manual operating device selectively between the machine tool and the robot. The manual operating device is connected to one of the controllers and inputs the operation signal to the one of the controllers. When the operational-target setting unit sets the operational target as a control target to be controlled by the other of the controllers, the one of the controllers transmits the operation signal or a signal based on the operation signal to the other of the controllers.
