'''Moving the winches'''
[[Stage Automation Level 2]]


When moving the winches ensure that the entire system is powered down. Unplugging the encoder cables with any power running through the system will cause a "drive error" upon power up. If a drive error does occur it can be reset by either querying the drive and enabling reset or enabling "reset drive" via the "devices" function.
