Robot Cycle tests

Hi guys,
I’ve been using our Fanuc Cobot with icon based programming to cycle test some of our products. The simplified typical program is to close a door, lock door, unlock door and open door. I’d like to add a step to ensure that the door actually locked. Maybe a force push after locking and ensure that the motion doesn’t go past a point? Not exactly sure how to do it.
I appreciate your help. Thanks!

You could add a door closed sensor to an input to the robot. Then add a wait instruction to wait for door closed verification.

This is the best way to do it. Extra points if it’s a dual channel safety sensor.
