Introduction to Safe Torque Off (STO)
Function: Cut off motor current supply physically (through mechanical means)
STO module (CN6 connector) consists of 2 input channels. It cuts off the motor current
supply by blocking of PWM control signal from the power module. When the motor
current is cut off, the motor will still move under inertia and stops gradually.
The STO function is set up ready to be used by factory default. Please remove STO
connector if it is not needed.
STO functional principle
STO module cuts off the motor current supply and stops motor gradually by blocking of
PWM control signal from the power module through 2 isolated circuits. When a STO
error occurs, the actual status of STO can be determined by the EDM status feedback.
