8.5.3.2 Outline of safe torque off (STO) function
The safe torque off (STO) function is a safety function that shuts the motor current and turns off motor output torque by forcibly
turning off the driving signal of the servo driver internal power transistor.
When STO is activated, the servo driver turns off the servo-ready output signal (S-RDY) and goes into a STO state, with the
indication in the front panel turning to “St”. When STO input is released and servo-on input is Off, it will automatically transition
itself to Servo ready state.
Note) To ensure that the servo amplifier recognizes that STO has turned off, keep STO off for at least 8 ms.
