3-5 Safe Torque Off 
3-5-1 Basic Function 
The VP3000 series provide a Safe Torque Off (STO) function, through the dual-channel STO_1 and 
STO_2 signal input to turn off the IGBT switching, prevent the motor from generating torque, so as to 
achieve the purpose of safe stop. Refer to Figure 3-43 for STO circuit diagram. 
VP3000 STO function comply with the following regulations: 
⚫  ISO 13849-1:2015 Category 3 PL e   
⚫  IEC 61508 SIL3   
⚫  EN 62061 SIL CL 3 
⚫  EN 60204-1 Category 0
