MCP-4
The MCP-4 has the same functionality as the MCP III, except that it has a 3-position enable
switch and a dual channel E-Stop circuit. The 3-position enable switch provides additional
safety for the operator. See the next section for a description of the enable switch.
3-Position Enable Switch
The 3-position enable switch on the MCP-4 works as follows (see Figure C-1 ):
Position 1 - switch is not pressed, high power cannot be enabled. (Switch is open.)
Position 2 - switch is pressed in to the middle position, high power can be enabled.
(Switch is closed.)
Position 3 - switch is pressed in past the middle position, high power is removed. (Switch
is open.)
