5DX Series 3 Emergency Stop
Emergency Stop
The Emergency Stop Subsystem is used to quickly shutdown the power to the
Agilent 5DX Main Cabinet. The Emergency Stop Subsystem is intended for crisis
situations only and should not be used as the normal means to stop the Agilent
5DX.
The 5DX System is equipped with two Emergency Stop Buttons. Refer to Figure 2
for their locations.
Figure 2: Emergency Stop Locations
The Emergency Stop Buttons are located on either side of the 5DX System Main
Cabinet just above the input or output barriers. When either Emergency Stop
Button is pressed it will immediately interrupt the switched system power. The
Emergency Stop Button will lock in the power off position and remain in the
locked position until released with the Emergency Stop release key. See the
Agilent 5DX Power Subsystem chapter of the Agilent 5DX Series 3 Service
Guide for a step-by-step procedure for restoring system power after an Emergency
Stop procedure has been performed.
Caution
The Emergency Stop Buttons are intended for use in emergency situations
only
and should not be used for normal system shutdown. Repeated misuse of
the Emergency Stop Buttons will eventually cause damage to certain
components or the loss of data or both.
Push down the Emergency Stop Button, or
switch the AC “Mains” to the “0” or off position
in an emergency situation.
