If a link does not work as expected, just copy the link text and paste it into a search engine. This should get you where you want to go. Hopefully thi...

Thanks very much for the replies. Suggested by a buddy--an e-stop switch that you plug the tool into, no wiring. My plan is to plug the router and controller into a power bar and plug the power bar into the e-stop switch. Simple for me.
