Emergency Stop From the MCP
To immediately halt program execution and turn off High Power, press the emergency
stop switch on the MCP. This switch has the same effect as pressing the emergency stop
switch on the Front Panel.
To re-enable High Power after pressing the MCP emergency stop switch, follow this
process:
1. Turn the emergency stop switch to the right (clockwise). The switch is spring
loaded and will return to its normal position.
2. Depress the Enable switch. High Power can now be re-enabled by pressing the
COMP/PWR button (mode control group), or by entering the ENABLE POWER
command from the keyboard.
3. Press the blinking High Power button on the Front Panel (or CIP2 in an MV
controller system). High Power is enabled.
Re-Enabling Power after Enable Switch Released
In Automatic Mode
Original SmartController
When the system is operating in Automatic Mode and you release the Enable switch (or
go to position 3 in the 3-position switch), the system turns off the same as an E-Stop
condition. To re-enable high power, you must follow the steps from the previous section.
CAT-3 SmartController
In a CAT-3 SmartController, when operating in Automatic Mode, the Enable switch is
ignored by the system. Releasing the Enable switch has no effect on operation. See Section
1.7 on page 22 for more information.
In Manual Mode
When the system is operating in Manual Mode and you release the Enable switch (or go to
position 3 in the 3-position switch), the system turns off in a controlled manner. This puts
the system in a different state than when the E-Stop button is pressed. To re-enable high
power, follow this process:
Depress the Enable switch. High Power can now be re-enabled by pressing the
COMP/PWR button (mode control group), or by entering the ENABLE POWER
command from the keyboard. High Power is enabled. This makes it more
convenient during development and when programming a system.
NOTE: The exception to this situation is when a CAT-3 SmartController is
used in a system with a PDU-2 or PDU-3. With these systems, you have to
press the blinking High Power button on the Front Panel. See
“Operational Change in SmartModule Systems” on page 24.
