A user interface for a robotic system includes a processing unit, an input handle, and a foot pedal. The input handle includes an actuation control that has an actuated position. In the actuated position of the input handle, the input handle transmits a handle signal to the processing unit. The foot pedal includes an actuation switch and has an actuated position. In the actuated position of the foot pedal, the foot pedal transmits a foot signal to the processing unit. The processing nit is configured to associate the input handle with the foot pedal in response to the actuation control being actuated and released. The processing unit is also configured to generate a control signal configured to actuate a tool associated with the input handle when the processing unit simultaneously receives a handle signal from the associated input handle and a foot signal form the foot pedal.
