General Mach Discussion / Re: Configuring a light curtain for a CNC router

Is it sufficient to let Mach4 go into feed hold and turn off spindle if the light curtain is triggered? Or should the machine go into E-stop mode and disable power to the servos and spindle?
If you want to follow the EU Directive, then you have to go by their rules, whatever they may be. I doubt that going into Feedhold is sufficient. I also doubt that you can be inside the curtain while jogging.
