Hey, I am trying to change from normal mode to reduced mode within the program and not with an external input. I do have a safety scanner around my robot that will force it to go into reduced mode. but there is a certain area outside of the scanner that the robot will go that i want to be in reduced mode no matter what. Is there a way to put the cobot into reduced mode with a script or function? Thanks for responses
You cannot enable and disable reduced mode from within the program. You can set up safety features (planes) though, which will put the robot into Reduced Mode, when the robot crosses into this feature/plane.
You will have to make a Feature in the Installation first. Then it can be copied as a Safety Plane.
You can check it out within the safety settings: Installation → Safety → Planes. 
The other method to achieve this would be to use an external safety relay that has one input pair and two output pairs, where it has it’s output wired to reduced mode input of robot and it has two inputs (one wired to scanner and one to robots DO). Have the DO of the robot that is wired to the safety relay along with area scanner and then logically OR together the area scanner and your DO signal within safety relay. Then have your program set the DO to the appropriate state to drive the reduced mode signal to the state you want it to be.
