SRVO-007: External emergency stops

An E-stop wired into the external emergency stop inputs is active - a cell E-stop pushbutton, a line-level stop, or whatever the integrator landed on those terminals.

What it means

An E-stop wired into the external emergency stop inputs is active - a cell E-stop pushbutton, a line-level stop, or whatever the integrator landed on those terminals. The controller only knows the circuit is open; finding which device opened it is the actual work.

Common causes

Ranked by what technicians most often find, most likely first.

  1. Any external E-stop device pressed or latched somewhere in the cell or line.
  2. Open wiring in the external E-stop chain.
  3. Blown fuse (with SRVO-213 alongside).
  4. E-stop board fault.

How to fix it

  1. Walk the cell and check every external E-stop device - pushbuttons, rope pulls, line stops - release the latched one and press RESET.
  2. If nothing is pressed, the circuit itself is open: check terminals and continuity on the external E-stop inputs.
  3. If SRVO-213 appears with it, check fuses first.
  4. Never defeat or bypass the external E-stop chain to keep running.
