Hello everyone,

I was in the process of using my shopbot when input 4 started flashing. I cannot proceed with any work as it seems the emergency stop has been activated somehow.

I have tried hitting the space bar and the physical emergency stop button but none seem to resolve the problem. The software tells me to 'reset tool stop button' but I don't know where to go to do that.

Please help!!!

check to see if your E stop cable is connected or broke

My emergency stop button has never really worked. We just got by using the space bar. I plan to have my technician find out why the button doesn't work.

We were able to operate the machine fine without it and the cable still seems intact.

I don't know if this is related but at the same time we had this issue, I noticed that there was no sound when I turned on the main power switch. You cant tell the machine is on unless you look at the power supply.

Is this related to the 'Tool Stop' issue I'm facing?

The shopbot software has changed the input mode of input 4.
