• Standing Clear Of Machinery – When troubleshooting a problem with any
ControlLogix system, have all personnel remain clear of machinery. The
problem may be intermittent, and the machine may move unexpectedly.
Have someone ready to operate an emergency stop switch.
WARNING
WARNING
POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Never reach into a machine to actuate a switch. Also, remove all electrical
power at the main power disconnect switches before checking electrical
connections or inputs/outputs causing machine motion.
Failure to observe these precautions can cause personal injury or
equipment damage.
• Safety Circuits – Circuits installed on machinery for safety reasons (like
over-travel limit switches, stop push-buttons, and interlocks) should always
be hard-wired to the master control relay. These circuits should also be wired
in series so that when any one circuit opens, the master control relay is de-
energized, thereby removing power. Never modify these circuits to defeat
their function. Serious injury or equipment damage may result.
