Overview
Protective stops and emergency stops are defined by standards IEC 60204-1:2005
and EN ISO 10218-1:2011.
Stops can be in category 0 or category 1.
As defined in IEC 60204, stopping by immediate removal of
power to the machine actuators (i.e. an uncontrolled stop. In
IRC5 this is implemented by removing power immediately in
the drive units.
Stop category 0
As defined in IEC 60204, a controlled stop with power available
to the machine actuators to achieve the stop and then removal
of power when the stop is achieved. In IRC5 this is implemented
by removing power in the drive units after about 1 second using
the servos to stop the machine.
Stop category 1
