Hi there I should be getting my Acorn shortly as it is in the country but I was wondering about how to connect the E Stop to a Driver only MX4660 similar to 540 example. This shows Pin 12 -VDC to one side of the E stop and Pin 10 output 3? to the other side. At present I have the E Stop on the Leadshine across the E Stop plus and minus and these can be linked together if no E Stop in use.
My question is how can I adapt this to my setup and is that E Stop a special as the one you list is a two circuit one which I don't have as it would have banged up my import fees and wasn't aware of the need I'm afraid. Perhaps if I really need it I can get one locally?

Re: E Stop connections MX4660
Sorry I've just checked my Switch it has got the two contacts so I just need help how to interpret the connections.
Thanks Bob.
Thanks Bob.

Re: E Stop connections MX4660
please wire as seen in schematic S14851 to get things working...
MX4660 doesn't have an estop input like the G540.
If you want a more robust estop circuit with the MX4660 (or any other drive)
you can kill the high voltage power going to the MX4660 with a Estop contactor as seen in S14826

Thanks Keith I'll try that as soon as I can prise it from the sorting office after paying a ransom.
Regards Bob.
