# Emergency Stop

The POWER FOCUS 8 is equipped with an infrastructure needed to create an emergency stop function with redundant breaking according to EN ISO 13849-1 category 3 PL d. The emergency stop function must be used when using remote start functionality.

The emergency stop function can be used with a supply disconnecting device (such as an EM Stop button). When pressed, it interrupts the supply voltage to the controller drive.

The emergency stop function can be used with either a single controller or up to 10 controllers in a single emergency stop chain. In a multiple controller configuration the emergency stop signal is distributed from the first controller to all interconnected controllers using E-stop in and E-stop out and PoE 1 and PoE 2. The last controller in the chain returns a feedback signal to indicate that all controllers have received the emergency stop signal. The Emergency stop event is displayed.

For the emergency stop there is a 24V DC output through the emergency stop connector on the connector board.
