properly following action sequence applies:
1. SAFETY OK, DRIVE OK signals are checked for congruency
2. SAFETY ENABLE signal issued high (24v applied)
3. ENABLE is issued high (24v applied)
4. FEEDBACK signals DriveOK and SAFETY DISABLED are checked for congruency
5. START command can now be issued to start motor and provide power
ENABLING SAFETY FUNCTION
Drive is running and powering a motor, both enable signals are enabled. In order to activate EXP-
SFTY-ADV function properly following action sequence is applied:
1. STOP command is issued to stop motor and power generation
2.
ENABLE issued low
3.
Finally SAFETY ENABLE signal is issued low
Should ENABLE and SAFETY ENABLE be tied together (both electrically or logically) it must
assured that they delays exceeding 4ms is not introduced. In case of SAFETY ENABLE be issued
high before ENABLE drive will go into interblock mode and will allow motor to start before ENABLE
is correctly taken low and high again.
