    7.1. ADDING ADDITIONAL DEVICES TO THE MOTION LOCK CIRCUIT If there is necessity to stop other devices, apart from the QS-617/625 , ML (Motion Lock) and additional customer devices can be controlled by safety relay outputs. In the ex- ample application, the E-STOP button is connected to the external safety relay. When the E-STOP is triggered, the safety relay will activate the Motion Lock function, which will stop motion of the platform and additional devices.

    QS-617/625 7.3.2 ADDING POWER-CUT CIRCUIT WITH E-STOP BUTTON If specific SIL/PL rated level needs to be achieved, it might be necessary to install a power cut-off device. Two contactors connected in series and controlled by safety relay can be used to provide or cut-off power line to QS-SB2 power cabinets. When safety function on safety relay input is triggered, a safety relay will switch off the contactors, thus cutting-off the power to the platform.
