Question:
Can the machine be shut down automatically via a control function (such as an M function) at the end of program execution on the “ghost shift”, i.e., during unattended operation? I mean switching off all components and then shutting down the control, as is the case when the main switch of the machine is used.
Answer:
This functionality is possible in principle, but it must be realized via the PLC program of your machine manufacturer. Please contact your machine manufacturer if you require this functionality.
