ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists from machine motion
when using wireless communications and software to Start/Stop/Jog,
configure or otherwise communicate with a drive.

Using the control bar feature in Pocket DriveExplorer for Pocket PC
(version 2.01 or higher) with wireless communications may present
safety hazards due to potential loss of the wireless connection. For
example, if the wireless connection is interrupted after a start or jog
command is initiated from the control bar, the drive cannot be stopped
using the control bar until the wireless connection is restored. For this
reason, it is required to always use an additional hard-wired stop circuit
to disable the drive.
