Implementation of category 1 stop in ACS800 in brief
After the emergency stop command has been given, the drive first decelerates the
motor to a standstill according to a preset ramp time. Then, the line contactor or air
circuit breaker is switched off.

The emergency stop complies with the following standards:
• IEC/EN 60204-1:1997 "Safety of machinery – Electrical equipment of machines –
Part 1: General requirements"
