from running. This technique should be used in applications that donʼt use
the

Blocking Valve Output

. Typical of these are most electric motion base in-

stallations.

H) Show Pause Buss LED

(One red LED)

This LED lights to show that the Kp-300 currently has an unresolved

Show Pause condition. If this LED is ON, you should not run the show.
When the

from the Smart Brick System goes

, the Kp-300 will be paused. The condition that caused the Show

Pause will then have to be cleared before the current show can be resumed.
Alternatively, the operator can bail out by pressing the E-Stop or running an-
other show that simply gets the operator back to the Load/Unload shows
without triggering an E-Stop.

I) HPU Stop Buss LED

(One red LED)

This LED lights to show that the Kp-300 currently has an unresolved HPU

Stop condition. If this LED is ON, you should not run the show. The Kp-300
will keep the operators from starting the HPU until this condition is resolved.
The error conditions that are typically used to trigger a

HPU Stop Buss

event

are those which might cause damage to the HPU, Motion base or their rid-
ers. Typical of these are ʻHPU Oil Level Lowʼ or ʻHPU Over Temperatureʼ
sensors.

It is not unusual for operators to try to override this type of safety feature.

For this reason, many HPU applications use a number of techniques to lock
out the show if the HPU is turned on locally:

a) The primary technique is to run the HPUʼs 24 vdc

ʻHPU Stopped

ʼ

and

ʻHPU Runningʼ

outputs through the ʻAutoʼ position of the

HPU ʻHand/Off/Manualʼ switch on the way to the Kp-300. By do-
ing this, both the HPU LEDs on the Kp-300 will be off unless the
HPU is in the ʻAutoʼ mode. This has the added advantage of giv-
ing the operators a remote indication of the position of the HPUʼs
ʻHand/Off/Manualʼ switch.

b) The ʻAutoʼ position of the HPUʼs ʻHand/Off/Manualʼ switches on
