Motor stop time monitoring 
Motor stop time monitoring - use 
System parts for important processes often have dual drives (A and B drives). Ensure that 
these are always operated alternately. This prevents long motor stop times and reduces the 
risk of non-availability. 
The motor stop time monitoring function can be used, for example, to generate an interrupt, 
thus initiating connection of the motor.  
The length of the permissible motor stop time is stipulated here; if exceeded, the monitoring 
function responds. 
 
0 to 65535 hours (default: 0 h) 
Unless deactivated, this function is always active, independent of whether the motor is 
running or not (operating state "ON"). 
You can define the response to overshoot of the permissible stop time here:
