DANGER
Risk of unexpected motion with non-latched faults.
After the cause of a non-latched fault is corrected, the amplifier re-enables
the PWM output stage without operator intervention. In this case, motion
may re-start unexpectedly. Configure faults as latched unless a specific
situation calls for non-latched behavior. When using non-latched faults, be
sure to safeguard against unexpected motion.
Failure to heed this warning can cause equipment damage, injury, or
death.
