Does SERVO power remain on while the HOLD button is enabled?

When the HOLD button is engaged, SERVO power typically remains on. This is a critical design feature in various control systems, as it allows for the maintenance of position and the preservation of torque without requiring the operator to continuously manage the controls. Keeping SERVO power on while the HOLD button is enabled ensures that the system can quickly resume normal operation when the HOLD button is released.

The rationale behind this design is to facilitate ease of operation and safety. Operators can pause the movement of a mechanism or motor without losing the ability to immediately command it back into action, which is particularly important in applications requiring precision and responsiveness.

In scenarios where SERVO power would not remain on, systems might instead rely on completely shutting off the power, leading to potential delays or safety risks when attempting to resume operation. Understanding this functionality is essential for effective operation and management of SERVO-driven devices and machinery.
