What is the best practice to remotely shut down the CB3 Series?

I am working with a UR5 robot (CB3-Series) and need to shut it down remotely using the Dashboard Interface.

According to the documentation, I should send the “shutdown” command. To ensure a safe shutdown, I believe I first need to make sure the robot has stopped.

Specifically, should I send the “power off” command before sending the “shutdown” command? What is the recommended best practice for this procedure?

I don’t believe there’s any need for a “power off” first. Shutting down the robot will also correctly turn off power to the motors. :slight_smile:
