Pressing any of these buttons would turn power off to every piece of machinery and to all work benches in the room (lights would stay on). That way if you saw someone from across the room about to do something stupid, being hurt, electrocuted, caught in a machine, etc., you could hit the nearest red bottom and it would shut everything down. I wonder if this method is still used today. That was 40 years ago. The Other Brian
