E-stop rules
The e-stop works according to the rules below:
The first FlexCarrier controls the e-stop functions.
The first FlexCarrier must have address 1.
Place the FlexController in the first FlexCarrier.
An e-stop configuration plug must be inserted in each FlexCarrier. If not, the e-stop will not work.
The first FlexCarrier must have either an entry plug or an ASM plug.
If an e-stop entry plug is placed in another FlexCarrier than the first one the e-stop will not work.
If a control cable is missing in between FlexCarriers, the next FlexCarrier will not start.
If the control cables have swapped positions, parts of the system will not be started.
Do not connect any daisy chained FlexCarriers to the controller input inter-com port on the first FlexCarrier.
In ASM mode the e-stop and reset buttons are only sensed and the safety PLC is controlling the system.
FlexCarriers in the daisy chain with higher address than 1 may be connected in any order.
