5.1. Release E-Stop and press reset button

This alarm will be displayed when the e-stop button is pressed. It may also be
displayed if the user does not reset the e-stop circuit on power up, before the HMI
application has loaded.

To clear the alarm, firstly ensure it is safe to re-start the machine. Then disengage the
e-stop button (pull up) and then press the reset button on the side of the machine.

If these actions fail, firstly check that air is correctly being supplied to the machine. If
the safety circuit still fails to reset, a suitably trained technician should be called.

This alarm stops the machine.

5.2. Recirculation pump stall

This alarm is shown if the pumps do not complete a full stroke in the time specified in
the recirculation configuration (see section 4.1).

Acknowledge the alarm to clear it.
This alarm stops the machine.
