Disable Or Remove A Force; Check Force Status - Allen-Bradley Compact 5000 Series User Manual

Disable or Remove a Force

To stop the effect of a force and let your project execute as programmed,
disable or remove the force.
• You can disable or remove I/O and SFC forces simultaneously or
separately.
• When you remove a force on an alias tag, you also remove the force on
the base tag.
ATTENTION: Changes to forces can cause unexpected machine motion that
could injure personnel. Before you disable or remove forces, determine how
the change affects your machine or process and keep personnel away from
the machine area.
