Abstract

A method for programming an industrial robot includes moving a manipulator arm of the industrial robot manually (hand guided) into at least one pose in which at least one control variable, which is to be entered in a robot program, is recorded by a control device of the industrial robot and is saved as a parameter of an associated program instruction in the robot program. In another aspect, an industrial robot includes a robot control unit which is designed and/or configured to carry out such a method.
