Safe cam (SCA)
This funcon monit
ors lower and upper posion limits.
Up to four absolute lower and upper posions limit values can be parameterized and
monitored.
DANGER!
Uncontrolled r
otaon of the motor possible if no safety rated encoder system is used.
Possible consequence: Death or severe injuries
▶
Use a safety rated encoder system to use this funcon.
NOTICE
The funcon has no h
ysteresis.
Possible consequences: The safe output can switch frequently when the speed of the drive is
near the monitoring limit.
Mechanical actuators at the safe output could wear out more quickly due to frequent
switching.
▶
In this case, avoid connuous operaon at the monitoring limit.

Fig. 25: SCA funcon
The funcon c
ompares the current absolute posion with the parameterized posion limits:
•
Lower posion limit: 0x28D8:001 ... 0x28D8:004
•
Upper posion limit: 0x28D9:001 ... 0x28D9:004
If the actual posion of the drive is within the monitoring limits, the SCA1 within
limits ... SCA4 within limits status is output.
•
St
atus word: 0x2870:002 Bit 12 ... 0x2870:002 Bit15.

Behavior of the funcon in the event of an error
If the monitoring limits are exceeded, no error message is output and no error stop is
triggered.
Only the SCA1 within limits ... SCA4 within limits status is reset.
