3.4 Emergency Stop
In case of any problem (electrical, radiation or mechanical) there is an emergency stop button
located on the front panel of the instrument. Pushing the emergency button immediately
removes the power to the instrument, including the X-Ray generator. Be aware, that pushing
the emergency stop button will result in communication loss between the control computer
and the instrument.
CAUTION!
The emergency stop should not be used for routine shut down of the generator since
repeated rapid power shut downs may dramatically reduce the lifetime of your X -Ray
tube and damage the X-Ray generator.

panel.
