safety standard (IEC60947-5-5, etc.):
- It must be a push button switch that is “normally closed”.
- A button that does not automatically return or resume.
- The button must be mushroom-shaped and red.

recognizes it as a critical error. Therefore, make sure that the Emergency Stop
switch has double contacts and install the switch by referring to the 2.5.8: Circuit
Diagrams.
