8.2.1 Emergency Stop Switch
If it is desired to add an external Emergency Stop switch(es) in addition to the Emergency
Stop on the Teach Pendant and Operator Panel, be sure to connect such Emergency Stop
switch(es) to the Emergency Stop input terminal on the EMERGENCY connector.
The Emergency Stop switch connected must comply with the following:
- It must be a push button switch that is “normally closed”.
- A button that does not automatically return or resume.
- The button must be mushroom-shaped and red.
- The button must have a double contact that is “normally closed”.
The signal from the Emergency Stop switch is designed to use two redundant circuits.
If the signals at the two circuits differ by two seconds or more, the system recognizes it as
a critical error. Therefore, make sure that the Emergency Stop switch has double
contacts and that each circuit connects to the specified pins on the EMERGENCY
connector at the Controller. Refer to the
Setup & Operation 8.4 Circuit Diagrams
.
