Safety Lock Sensor Board (SLS)
Two hall sensors detect correct closure of the front door (needle arm
movement is interrupted, if front door is open). The front door is locked by an
electric magnet.
Unlocking the front door is done by pushing the button on the right side or
switching the power off/on.
