Actions page

Use the
Actions
 page to:
  • Configure how an axis responds to fault types.
  • Modify actions for how an axis responds to fault types.
    TIP: Some of the options for each of the actions, such as the options for the
    Disable (MSF) Stopping Action
     control, may change depending on the axis configuration and information from the drive's profile.
TIP: Top open the Actions page:
  1. In the
    Controller Organizer
    , expand the
    Motion Groups
     folder, and double-click an axis.
  2. From the
    Axis Properties
     dialog box, in
    Categories
    , click
    Actions
    .
The parameters are separated into Standard Actions and Safety Actions.

Tip:
 The
Parameter List
 page may contain more attributes than the associated page. In some cases, attributes that display on the
Parameter List
 page do not display on the associated page.
Danger: Vertical Load is enabled. Changing Action attributes from the Current Decel & Disable setting could endanger personnel, machine, and property.

Safety Actions parameters
Parameter
Description
Safe Torque Off Action
Determines the stopping method to apply to the motor when the drive detects a Safe Torque Off (STO) Active condition that was not initiated by a Safe Stop 1 (SS1) Active condition, and
Safe Torque Off Action Source
 is set to
Connected Drive
.
The available options include:
  • Disable & Coast
  • Current Decel & Disable
  • Ramped Decel & Disable
  • DC Injection Brake
  • AC Injection Brake
Safe Torque Off Action Source
Specifies whether the drive or the controller initiates the stopping sequence in response to a Safe Torque Off Active condition.
The available options include:
  • Connected Drive
     - the drive initiates the stopping sequence according to the Safety Torque Off Action selection
  • Running Controller
     - requires the user program to execute the stopping action
Safe Stopping Action
