Ramp monitoring

None

The deceleration ramp is not monitored.

In the event of an infringement of a limit position, the STO safety sub-function is activated as an error response. For the application to come to a standstill, there must be a sufficiently large safety area behind the limit positions.

Linear

The deceleration ramp is monitored linearly.

The braking distance is calculated cyclically from the actual speed and the value of the Deceleration a parameter. If the sum of the calculated stopping distance and the actual speed exceeds the limit position, the SLP safety sub-function activates the STO safety sub-function prior to an infringement of the limit position. To ensure that the application comes to a standstill before the limit position in this case, the brake system must be able to stop the application faster than the specified deceleration taking into account the brake application time.
