8.4 STO Status Indications
Although they are not and must not be considered part of the safety function, indications of the STO
status are available from the Accelnet & Stepnet Plus Panels drive for convenience purposes.
Specifically the Axis A & B LEDs, two user-accessible data objects bits, and the CME2 Control Panel
provide some information on STO status. The LEDs, data objects, and CME2 are not part of the drive
safety function.
8.4.1 Axis A & B LEDs
The example shown is for a 2-axis drive. On 1-axis drives the AMP LED is located apart from the RS-232
connector. Colors do not alternate, and can be solid ON or blinking. When multiple conditions occur, only the top-
most condition will be displayed. When that condition is cleared the next one below will shown.
Red/Blinking
=
Latching fault. Operation will not resume
until drive is Reset
Red/Solid
=
Transient fault condition. Drive will resume
operation when the condition causing
the fault is removed.
Green/Double-Blinking =
STO circuit active, drive outputs are
Safe-Torque-Off
Green/Slow-Blinking
=
Drive OK but NOT-enabled. Will run when enabled.
Green/Fast-Blinking
=
Positive or Negative limit switch active.
Drive will only move in direction not inhibited
by limit switch.
Green/Solid
=
Drive OK and enabled. Will run in response to
reference inputs or communication commands.
8.4.2 STO Circuit Status Data Objects
The
Accelnet & Stepnet Plus Panel
s have a variety of data objects that can be read by the end user via
CANopen, EtherCAT, or serial communications. The status of the STO circuit is available in ASCII parameter
0x139 and DS-402 parameter 0x219D. Bits 0 & 1 show the status of the STO-IN1 and STO-IN2 inputs.
Bit 8 has no function in the
Accelnet & Stepnet Plus Panel
s
.
Bit
Safety Circuit Status
0
Set (1) when STO-IN1 is active and preventing the drive from producing torque
1
Set (1) when STO-IN2 is active and preventing the drive from producing torque
