A method for providing presentation of tactile feedback in an industrial robot system (6), comprising a portable operator control device (4), at least one manipulator (1 ) and a robot control unit (2) for controlling the at least one manipulator, said robot control unit comprising a processor (20) and a first communication module (24) for communicating with the operator control device, said operator control device comprising a processor (40), a second communication module (44) for communicating with the robot control unit and a presentation device (52) for providing tactile feedback to a user being in physical contact with the operator control device (4). The method comprises configuring the processor (40) of the operator control device (4) and/or the processor (20) of the robot control unit (2) to enable tactile feedback indication on the presentation device (52) upon the occurrence of a set of events, configuring the processor (40) of the operator control device (4) to control the presentation device (52) to provide tactile feedback indication upon the occurrence of a set of events, and/or configuring the processor (20) of the robot control unit (2) to control the operator control device (4) to control the presentation device (52) to provide tactile feedback indication upon the occurrence of a set of events, and selecting a subset of events for presentation of tactile feedback indication in the operator control device (4). A corresponding industrial robot system and a portable operator control device are also disclosed. |
