ANSI/IEEE Manually unlatched NO contact form
IEEE-library form of manually unlatched no contact: a manually unlatched NO contact includes a mechanical retaining action released by a documented manual operation.
In plain English
What does ANSI/IEEE Manually unlatched NO contact form mean?
This reference locates manually unlatched no contact in Autodesk's IEEE-oriented relays and contacts family. A manually unlatched normally open contact includes a mechanical retaining action released by a documented manual operation. Its schematic modifier explains why removal of an initiating signal may not restore the initial state. The public library uses HCR2121F for its horizontal representation; this is a vendor block name, not an IEEE standards symbol number.
A simple example
Trace the measured quantity or initiating control signal separately from the output contacts. The device tag links the sensing or operating element to the controlled circuit; settings, reset behaviour and the actual terminal arrangement belong in the selected equipment documentation.
What the drawings help you do
Follow the manual reset to the retaining device tag. Manual unlatching concerns the mechanism, not the contact's load interrupting rating. The linked functional counterpart explains the same operating role in its own drawing context; agreement of every detailed convention mark is not asserted.

A distinction that matters
Manual unlatching concerns the mechanism, not the contact's load interrupting rating.
