Figure 4. The Power panel of Terrameter LS
The Emergency Stop Button has two possible positions. The inner position
corresponds to the emergency stop condition while the outer position corresponds to
the operating condition.
Current can only be transmitted if the Emergency Stop Button is in the outer position.
If the Emergency Stop Button is pressed during measurement current transmission
will stop immediately without closing down the measurement session. The
measurement can be resumed again as soon as the button is released. The Emergency
Stop Button is released to the outer position by twisting it clockwise.
Before releasing the Emergency Stop Button the
operator must have full control of the instrument and
the entire electrode cable layout, so that people and
animals do not get close to the electrodes and electrode
take-outs connected to the measurement cables!
