What it means

Emergency stop open: the emergency stop circuit has been broken and, while it was broken, an attempt to operate was made. The system remains in the Emergency Stop state.

What to check

  • Reset the emergency stop at its source (button, gate), then acknowledge with Motors ON.
  • If the state persists after reset, check the two channels of the ES circuit and their wiring on the Panel Board.
  • Note: Difference from 20223: here BOTH channels are open (clear-cut stop); 20223 reports a discrepancy between channels (contact fault).
