13 Safety funcons
13.1 Safe torque o (STO)
With this safety funcon, the drive can be switch o safely immediately.
DANGER!
Automac restart if the request of the safety funcon is deacvated.
Possible consequences: Death or severe injuries
▶
You must provide external measures according to EN ISO 13849−1 which ensure that the
drive only restarts aer a conrmaon.

Details
Safe disconnecon of the drive
1.A safety sensor requests the safety funcon.
2.The transmission of the pulse width modulaon is safely switched o by the safety unit.
3.The power drivers do not generate a rotang eld anymore.
4.The "STO is not acve" status in the status word changes from 1: HIGH to 0: LOW (object
0x6041, bit 15).
The motor is safely switched to torqueless operaon (STO).

If SIA and SIB are LOW at the same me, the internal status signal "Both STO
channels not acve [155]" in the inverter is set to TRUE. This status signal can be
used to trigger a "non-safe output" (e.g. to the relay).
If the GS connecon is interrupted or in case of a short circuit/short circuit of GS
to SIA/SIB, STO is acve.
