摘要：
A method and system of controlling a surgical instrument including an end effector are provided. The method includes detecting a first signal indicating that an end effector component of a surgical instrument is positioned between a first position and a second position, and automatically controlling operation of the end effector component after a second signal is not received within a predetermined time period after detecting the first signal. The second signal indicates that the end effector component is in one of the first position or the second position. The system includes a surgical instrument and a controller to implement the method.
