estop_latch

I got my e-stop circuit working. I spent three days on this, so I hope it helps someone.

I have a standard style remote emergency stop button that is normally closed and latches open

when pushed.

I ended up using a oneshot component between the e-stop button and the estop-latch.0.fault-in pin.

This effectively converted the remote e-stop button into a momentary contact switch with a 2

second on time.

The e-stop button on the graphical user interface is hard to see so I added a red light on my
pendant.

I used non-meaningful signal names in the HAL file. (july1, july2 etc)

I found it to be too confusing to have signal names that looked similar to the Hal pin names.
