ATTENTION: A runway condition is caused by incorrect motor, Hall, or encoder
wiring. It results in uncontrolled speeding of the stage. Keep away from the line
of travel while commissioning the stage.
IMPORTANT The customer is responsible for ensuring the servo control system safely
controls the stage with regards to maximum force, acceleration, speed, and
preventing runaway conditions.
ATTENTION: Stages are capable of very high forces, accelerations and speeds.
Moving parts can cause personnel injury. Before running the stage, make sure
all components are secure.
Check that the stage travel and air gap is clear of foreign matter and tools.
Objects hit by the moving stage can cause personnel injury or damage to the
equipment.
ATTENTION: Do not operate the stage with protective covers removed. Do not
go near electrically live parts. High voltages can cause personal injury or death.
