Emergency Stop
Operator Instructions 5
1 Emergency Stop
CAUTION
The emergency stop buttons are intended for use in emergency situations only
and should not be used for normal system shut down. Repeated misuse of the
emergency stop buttons will eventually cause damage to certain components or
the loss of data or both.
An emergency stop button is used to quickly shut down power to the
Medalist 5DX. The Medalist 5DX is equipped with two emergency
stop buttons located on either side of the Medalist 5DX main cabinet,
centered above the outer barrier panels. Whenever one of the
emergency stop buttons is pressed, all power is immediately removed
from the Medalist 5DX subsystems, with the exception of the system
controller and the monitor. Call a service technician to restart the
system after an emergency button has been pressed.
Push down on one of the emergency stop
buttons in an emergency situation.
The emergency stop button locks
OFF when pushed.

panel.
11 You are now ready to continue testing as before.
Other Errors
If an error occurs during testing, an appropriate message will be
displayed describing the nature of the problem, and possible steps to
take to fix it. (Figure 13 shows one of many possible error messages).
Specific directions on the next steps to take are provided in the
dialog box and must be followed by the appropriate level of user and
not ignored.
NOTE
Do not dismiss error messages. Call a programmer or a service trained
technician to assist you.
