Main power switch
(I/O)
The main power switch and Emergency Stop is located on the front-right of the
frame base. Select position ( I )to turn the power on to the load frame and the
controller. When the power is on, the displays on the frame control panel
illuminate. Select position ( O) to turn off power to the load frame and the
controller.
Emergency Stop
The frame is also equipped with an Emergency Stop button. The Emergency-
Stop will cut the power to the motor and should be used for emergency purposes
only.
The Emergency-Stop should be periodically pressed when the controller is
powered but not when a test is running. The controller continously monitors the
redundant Emergency-Stop chain and will generate a fault alerting the user if any
problems are detected. Pressing Emergency-Stop allows the active state to be
checked..
To shut down the motor power and stop the test program, press the Emergency-
Stop button. Twist the switch clockwise to release it. Use the Emergency-Stop
button to shut down your test if something unexpected should happen.
