How to use a timer function and monitor the in

Archiver

One simple (maybe too simple for your application) solution:

- tie process control line low through pulldown resistor so default
state is low

- connect emergency stop switch between ground and Stamp reset pin

- when start button is pressed, drive process control line high
and start PAUSE

- if at any time emergency stop switch is activated, Stamp
program will stop, process control pin will revert to input state
and line will be pulled low--when switch deactivated, program starts
all over again

I need a controlled emergency stop, I cannot just stop all, I have to
slow down the system and shut off some outputs before I can turn off
the stamp. If I would just reset the stamp I have a real emergency!!!
Big troubles if this happenes!!!!!

Thanks anyway,
Greetings Marko
