By moving the jumper to the E-Stop position, an input will trigger an E-

Stop show when it opens. Moving it to the Show Pause position will cause
an input to pause the show when it opens. If this input is not being used for
either an E-Stop or Show Pause, it should be removed.

Any condition that triggers an E-Stop will set two latches on the Kp-300

and turn on a flashing red LED for the input that triggered the error condition.
The first of these latches stops the HPU (if there is one) and triggers the
Smart Brick System to play the E-Stop Show through the

Blue ʻE-Stopʼ Input

to the Smart Brick Brain. Calling up the E-Stop show sets the ʻ

E-Stop Show

Running

ʼ output from the Smart Brick System (this must be programmed into

the motion profile of the E-Stop show). This resets the first of the two E-Stop
latches on the Kp-300. At this point you can start the HPU and any shows
that have been enabled in the motion control profile of the E-Stop Show.

Starting the next show will reset the second E-Stop latch in the Kp-300.

This will turn off the red LED indicator for the input that triggered the E-Stop
and enable the Kp-300ʼs pause functions (because it has the

Show Pause

Reset Input

programmed active, the E-Stop show cannot be paused).

When a Show Pause occurs, it turns on a flashing red LED to indicate the

input that caused the error condition. A Show pause can also be initiated by
pressing the

ʻShow Pauseʼ button

. Initiating a Show Pause sets a latch on

the Kp-300 that tells the Smart Brick System to pause the current show
through a signal on the

Green ʻPauseʼ Output

to the Smart Brick Brain

.

This latch can be reset by using the

ʻShow Continueʼ button

(but only if the

condition that caused the pause has been cleared) or the

Show Pause Re-

set Input

from the Smart Brick System. This tells the Smart Brick System to

continue the current show through a signal on the

Green ʻPauseʼ Output

to

the Smart Brick Brain

Clearing the Kp-300 Show Pause latch will stop the red LED that indi-

cates the input which caused the Show Pause from flashing, but not turn it
off. The LED will be turned off only when:

a) The next show is started

b) Another input triggers an E-Stop or Pause condition

The Show Pause Reset output from the Smart Brick System can be pro-

grammed to be active during any show that you donʼt want to be able to

In some applications, you may want to call up a different show using this input, instead of pausing the current show.
