It is also required to have 24VDC present on the STOP terminal to enable network start/stop. If this voltage is missing, the ATS480 will remain in nSt state and unable to run.
A hardwired E-Stop or shutdown circuit can be wired between +24 and STOP so that the circuit is closed when allowed to start and is open to stop. If no external interlock is needed a jumper can be installed between +24 and STOP, but be sure to evaluate the safety of this for your specific installation. See manuals for details.
