The following settings are possible:

Setting

Meaning

No response

The event is ignored.

Emergency stop + output stage inhibit

The drive stops subject to speed control with the value of the Emergency stop deceleration parameter (parameter group Monitoring functions > Limit values). The output stage is inhibited when motor standstill is reached. If a brake is installed, it is applied or the DynaStop® function is activated.

To move clear of the limit switch, a setpoint must be present in the travel direction before the fault can be actively acknowledged.

Emergency stop + output stage inhibit with self reset

The drive stops subject to speed control with the value of the Emergency stop deceleration parameter (parameter group Monitoring functions > Limit values). The output stage is inhibited when motor standstill is reached. If a brake is installed, it is applied or the DynaStop® function is activated.

To move clear of the limit switch, a setpoint must be available in the direction of travel so that the inverter automatically acknowledges the fault.

DefaultSetting
