How do you save a new program on the Teach Pendant?

• A. Use the Program Manager to Save As and store it in the desired directory.
• B. Copy the file directly to a USB drive.
• C. Press the reset button on the pendant.
• D. Backup the controller via network settings.

Answer: (A)

Saving a new program on the Teach Pendant is done through the Program Manager by choosing Save As and selecting the target directory. This writes the program into the controller’s program storage with the name you provide, so it’s properly organized and easily retrievable later. The reset button isn’t used for saving because it just resets the pendant or controller, not the program file. Copying a file directly to a USB drive isn’t saving the program into the pendant’s active program list, and backing up the controller via network settings is about broader system data rather than saving an individual new program into the proper program directory.
