lights: red, yellow and green. The lights reflect
what state the machine is in at any given time.

Emergency Stop (E-Stop):
This switch is

turning it clockwise. An E-Stop is also located
inside the print chamber.

installed on the touchscreen enables the user
to view and adjust the print parameters used
to print a part as well as control the various
hardware components of the printer.
