How to create a button to must be hold

Basically, what we would like for a current project is a way to create a button that you need to keep holding for the robot to move.

Similar to when you use the option "Go to position" in the debugger on the flexpendant. 

We want to use it for the operators to hold the button during certain events so that they can move the robot calm and controlled to home.
We can already trigger this from the normal HMI by setting a signal, but we want this also to be possible from the flexpendant itself.

Hoping to get some good tips of how to do this.

  • Do you want to create a .Net application with the PC SDK? In this case you can define a button and connect it to a datatype in Rapid (for example a bool). In Rapid you can check for the value of this signal and based on that change the robot movement.
