This message is not necessarily an error, but you might receive other related errors if the E-Stop is showing to be engaged, especially when you attempt to execute a machine function and the E-Stop button is not engaged (released and extending completely forward).

Possible Causes of a False E-Stop Engaged Message:

Troubleshoot a false E-Stop engaged error following the steps described in the table below.

 

First, remove the base cover and locate the E-Stop LED located at position D49 on the main PCB.  Observe the condition of this LED (on or off) as you perform the following troubleshooting steps (machine must be turned on with the AMAYA OS software loaded):
