    Emergency Stop

    Hi,
    i finally got my emergency stop-switch which i wired right to the E-Stop-Input on the MK3/4 Board and the ground. But nothing happens. What do i have to configure in the TNG to use it? I wired it up as Input and configured a shortcut - it works. But i got an extra E-Stop-Inlet and want to use it. But how?

    Re: Emergency Stop

    Advising the system that an E-stop occurred and relying on the S/W system to implement an E-stop is not enough in itself.
    Technically you should have a hard stop also that immediately removes all power to motive devices, i.e. the power to all servo's and motors, spindles etc, should be opened.
    This according to NFPA79 reg's.
