What does the EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON do and how to clear it.

Reasons and Solutions

The Emergency Stop Button stops the machine at the exact moment the button is pressed.
*The machine does not go back to the needle up position unlike the regular stop button.
*The machine will stop in the middle of a frame movement.
* DO NOT move the pantograph, if you wish to have any hope of continuing the design from its current location.
