Kp-300 Panel IndicatorsThere are sixty-one LED indicators and one or two LCD displays on the front of the Kp-300. They are used as follows:A) Error I

All the inputs are configured to ʻfail safeʼ, which is to say that an error is triggered by an open circuit on an input. This is true even for the

The Show Cycle Count Advance Input pulse is typically programmed to take place towards the end of the motion base program. This lets a show
