  • Needed fancier E-Stop with hold switch and RGB status LEDs for my Thanos AMC controller and this project was born!

    All other designs were too boring, also did not see any with lighted E-Stop, so challenge accepted. The kill switch I use has RGB led, so supports three different colors - same as needed for the Thanos controller! It also comes with Force Offline switch, should you ever need it. Furthermore both of the switches use 5V LEDs so ne need to solder resistors.

    This was designed to use the standard RJ-45 pinout that both Thanos AMC and 4U controllers currently support, tested with my AMC, work flawlessly!

     

  • Parts Needed:

    1. Mushroom Metal Emergency Stop RGB 3-6V, 19mm
    2. Black Push Button Switch 12mm, Self Locking
    3. RJ45 Female Socket with wire (8p8c)
    4. ALU Color Washers M3
    5. Brass Heat Inserts M3 (4mm OD), 6mm long
    6. M3x16 Tapered Head Screws 10-16mm
    7. M6 bolt and T-nut for mounting to rig

    Further Instructions:

    Solder according to diagram, found HERE. It is included in this page as well for your convenience.

    And also do not forget to enable the RGB LED Dip switch on the controller!
