ABSTRACT:
An industrial robot system including a plurality of industrial robots. Each robot includes a manipulator, a control unit for automatically operating the manipulator, and a movable key device configured to store information about the identity of the robot to which the moveable key device belongs. A portable operating unit is configured to teach and program the robots. The portable operating unit is adapted for wireless communication with each control unit. The portable operating unit includes a member for receiving one of the moveable key devices, a reader for reading a robot identity from the received moveable device, and a communication establisher for establishing wireless communication between the operating unit and the control unit of the identified robot upon reading the robot identity from the moveable key device.
