WARNING
Do NOT connect 115VAC to any part of the Apollo I Breakout Board. It could cause serious damage to your

The emergency stop connector is located right below the power connector on the Apollo I. When the emergency stop
terminals are connected together, the red E-Stop LED turns on and the breakout board can then enable.

Note: Nothing will work on the Apollo I Breakout Board unless the Emergency Stop terminals are connected together!
Emergency stop input is set up inside Mach3 by setting the EStop signal to port 2 pin 15. Set the Active Low column
to a red X. If it is setup correctly, Mach3 will reset any time the emergency stop terminals are disconnected.
