8.6 PANATERM for Safety
To use safety functions, the safety monitoring function must be programmed using the safety function
setting software PANATERM for Safety and written into driver module.
For details on the procedures for preparing the safety monitoring program, refer to "PANATERM for
Safety Programming Manual (SX-DSV03508)".
Cautions on setting up the safety monitoring program

A license key (optional part number: DV0PM24621) is required in order to use PANATERM
for Safety.
For details, refer to "PANATERM for Safety Programming Manual (SX-DSV03508)".

As the threshold values (acceptable range) for position monitoring and speed monitoring
vary in the safety monitoring program depending on the inertia ratio, filter settings, gain
settings, and operating speed, specify appropriate settings in accordance with your
operating conditions.

Write the safety monitoring program to driver module in the servo OFF state.

Check the specification of the external scale and specify an appropriate value when setting
up the voltage for the external scale connected to the driver module. An incorrect setting
may cause a damage in the external scale.

Only the driver module (device) and the STO function (off state) are valid as the safety
monitoring program at the time of shipment, and it is possible to drive the motor. However,
rewrite the safety monitoring program according to the customer's device configuration.
