Brake Release Button
The Brake Release button is the recessed push-button located below the Indicator LED.
• The brake release circuit requires 24 VDC at the MB-10 to function.
• Pressing the Brake Release button releases the brakes on any module equipped
with brakes. This is typically a module mounted in a vertical orientation.
• Pressing the Brake Release button while the system is running causes a software
E-Stop, disables High Power, and brings the mechanisms to an uncontrolled stop.
• Pressing the Brake Release button disables High Power, but does not disable
PDU3 AC to the MB-10s. Both the ES1 and ES2 LEDs on the PDU3 remain on, if
they were already on.
