Can UR robot dynamically set security boundaries? By UR script? Or some other way to do it. Is that possible?

I haven’t tried, but I would say almost for sure that you cannot. When editing any safety parameters, the robot powers off, and generates a safety code based on the current settings. I believe the safety planes use the \_const version of the Feature you select, which cannot be programmatically changed.

This cannot be done. Any changes to the safety parameters require entering the robot safety password, and a reinitialization of the robot arm.
