    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling the movements of articulated arms (21, 22, 23) of an industrial robot (2) using a movement setting means (3) to be guided by hand by an operator, the movements of which are provided for generating at least a portion of the movement control data for the industrial robot (2) to be controlled. At least one of a plurality of reference marks (19, 19′, 19″) is arranged or formed at least on individual articulated arms (21, 22, 23) adjustable by the operator. The movement setting means (3) comprises at least one imaging and/or at least one distance-sensitive sensor (16, 17) which at least one sensor (16, 17) can be set with at least one of the plurality of reference marks (19, 19′, 19″) into a relative spatial position selected by the operator. During a movement of the movement setting means (3) at least the articulated arm (21, 22, 23) bearing the respectively selected reference mark (19, 19′, 19″) follows the movements of the movement setting means by control technology. In addition, a corresponding control system (1) and movement setting means (3) are specified.
