Safe Direction without encoder
Note
You can find the parameterization for operation without encoder (p9506 = 1 or p9506 = 3) in
the commissioning screen form for the safety functional scope (Page 251).
Differences between Safe Direction with encoder and Safe Direction without encoder
● For Safe Direction without encoder, after pulse suppression the drive is unable to determine
the current speed. For this operating state, the behavior is defined using parameter p9509.8:
– p9509.8 = 1
The status signal displays "inactive".
– p9509.8 = 0
The status signal displays "active", and the drive takes on the state STO.
● Due to the less precise position recognition, "Safe Direction without encoder" requires a
larger tolerance (p9564) compared with the function with encoder.
