This signal informs the Robot Controller that the command area, data
areas 1 and 2, and the command and data area odd parity bit have been
set. Additionally it directs the start of command processing.
Caution: Perform command input with a strobe signal after the system
output signal ROBOT INITIALIZATION COMPLETE is output.

(3) Input conditions and operation
By turning ON this input in automatic or external mode, the Robot
Controller reads the command area, data areas 1 and 2, and the
command and data area odd parity bit starts processing.
Retain the status until a command processing complete signal is output
and the necessary status data is read. If the strobe signal is turned
OFF before a command processing complete signal is output, the
status area will not be output.
By turning OFF this input after the status is read, the command
processing complete output, the status area and the status parity will
be turned OFF.
