5.3  Control of "STO" and "SS1" via terminals on the Control Unit and 
the Motor/Power Module 
Features 
•  Only for the Basic Functions. 
•  Dual-channel structure via two digital inputs (Control Unit / power unit). 
•  A debounce function can be applied to the terminals of the Control Unit and the Motor 
Module to prevent incorrect trips due to signal disturbances or test signals. The filter times 
are set via parameters p9651 and p9851. 
•  Different terminal blocks depending on the format. 
•  Automatic AND operation of up to eight digital inputs (p9620[0..7]) on the Control Unit 
for chassis format power units connected parallel switching. 
Overview of the terminals for safety functions 
The different power unit formats have different terminal designations for the inputs of the 
safety functions. These are shown in the following table.

Terminals for STO, SS1 (time-controlled), SBC 
The functions are separately selected/deselected for each drive using two terminals. 
1.  Switch-off signal path, Control Unit 
The desired input terminal is selected via BICO interconnection (BI: p9620[0]). 
2.  Switch-off signal path Motor Module / Power Module 
The input terminal is the "EP" terminal ("Enable Pulses") 
The EP terminal is periodically interrogated with a sampling time which is rounded off to 
an integer multiple of the current controller cycle; however, it is a minimum of 1 ms. 
(example: t
i = 400 µs, tEP => 3 x ti = 1.2 ms)  
Both terminals must be energized within the tolerance time p9650, otherwise a fault will be 
output.
