Conditions
A safe input must be parameterised and interconnected as enable switch. You can only
connect and parameterise one enable switch. The ES bit of the safety bus must be
deactivated (C15113).
The enable switch function can also be selected via the safety bus with the ES bit, unless
a safe input is parameterised as enable switch.
The special operation must be activated.
The plausibility check rejects ambiguous settings until they are parameterised correctly.

Description
Cas
cading / CAS
This function enables a synchronised shutdown of an entire drive system.
ƒ
The function can only be activated via parameter setting. For this purpose set the
"CAS: cascading" parameter to "Cascading with SD−In4".
ƒ
With activated function:
– The SD−In4 safe input is used as cascading input and cannot be used as universal
input anymore.
– The SD−Out1 safe output is used as cascading output and cannot be parameterised
as universal feedback output anymore.
– A stop function (emergency stop, SSE) released by cascading cannot be overruled
in special operation through the enable switch.
ƒ
The cascade trips with every STO, irrespective of which safety module adopts the
STO status and for which reason.
ƒ
All safety modules of the cascade can only be enabled if all cascading inputs (SD−In4)
are in the OFF state (emergency stop has been enabled).
ƒ
For the restart of the drive system, the AIS restart acknowledgement must be
executed simultaneously for all safety modules of the cascade.
ƒ
The restart is executed with a delay of 100 ms after the acknowledgement has been
recognised.
ƒ
Cascading is designed for max. 100 drives.
ƒ
During special operation, the drives of the cascade can only change from the
SS2/SOS stop function to acceptance. An STO or SS1 as stop function would trigger
the entire drive system every time and thus impede acceptance.
