Controlling the safety functions   
7.3 Control of "STO" and "SS1" via terminals on the Control Unit and the Motor/Power Module 
  Safety Integrated 
170  Function Manual, 05/2010, A5E03264275A 
Functional principle 
The first shutdown path for the integrated safety functions is activated via a digital input on 
the control unit; digital inputs DI0 to DI7 are available for this purpose. 
The second shutdown path for the integrated safety functions is activated via the terminals (-
X41:1, -X42:2) on the Control Interface Module of the Power Module. 
The selection and deselection must be executed concurrently. The time delay that is 
unavoidable due to mechanical switch processes, for instance, can be adapted via 
parameters. 
The selection of the safety function on the Control Unit and on the Control Interface Module 
of the Motor Module must be executed over two channels. A switch in accordance with ISO 
13850/ EN 418, positive opening in accordance with EC 60947-5-1, or a certified safety 
controller must be used as activation element.  
 
DANGER 
 
Responsibility for selecting the correct activation element for the purpose of compliance of 
the overall system with the required standard (DIN EN ISO 13849-1 (formerly EN954-1) 
Cat. 3 PL d or DIN EN 61508 SIL2) rests with the user.
