0 0 1 1 DB3900.DBX4.7 1st + over limit
0 0 1 1 DB3900.DBX4.6 1st - over limit
0 0 0 1 DB3901.DBX4.7 2nd + over limit
0 0 0 1 DB3901.DBX4.6 2nd - over limit
0 0 0 0 DB3902.DBX4.7 3rd + over limit
0 0 0 0 DB3902.DBX4.6 3rd - over limit
In the hardware solution above, the feed stop signals for all axes (for example, disconnect
the terminal 65 of the SINAMICS V60 via a relay) can be activated via the hardware limit
switches when any of the hardware limits is reached or an EMERGENCY STOP happens.
You can check the information of the PLC diagnostics from the encoding of the hardware
limit switches shown in the table above, and identify the cause (Emergency Stop button or a
hardware limit switch of an axis) of the EMERGENCY STOP signal.
Note
When using the hardware solution, you must take below information into consideration:
You must assign the axes one by one; for example, X axis, Z axis, spindle or X axis, Y
axis, Z axis, spindle. You must not assign the axes like X axis, Y axis, spindle, Z axis.
You must set constant "1" (i.e. SM0.0) to the input signals of the hardware limits for
undefined axes; otherwise, the hardware limits of the undefined axes can be activated.
