7.3.4 External Reset
The external reset connection performs the same function as the Reset button on the power supply. The
terminals of the external reset are connected in parallel with the E-Stop on the power supply.
The external reset signal would normally come from a safety PLC. Simple examples for wiring diagrams
in the case of the R3 and R4 versions of the Meca500 are shown in Figure30. The same specifications for
the input voltage and current apply, as in the case of the SWStop, as shown in Figure30.
