Slave Modes for Multi-axis Cascaded Systems Chapter 8
Slave, Safe Limited Speed
Status Only Mode
When properly configured for Slave, Safe Limited Speed Status Only mode, the
Safe Speed Monitor Option module performs the same functions as Safe Limited
Speed Status Only mode as described on page 91
. However, the safety option
regards the Door Monitor input as a Door Control output from an upstream
axis, and performs a logical AND with its internal Door Control signal to form
the cascaded Door Control output.
The SLS_Out output of the last safety option in a cascaded chain goes high only
when all axes are below the Safe Speed Limit. In Safe Limited Speed Status Only
mode, each subsequent unit does not enable Safe Limited Speed until the
previous unit has reached the Safe Speed Limit.
Door Monitoring and Enabling Switch Monitoring functions are not allowed in
this mode.
Slave, Safe Limited Speed
Status Only Parameter List
To configure the safety option for Slave, Safe Limited Speed Status Only
monitoring, set these parameters in addition to the Slave, Safe Stop parameters
listed on page 99
and the Slave, Safe Limited Speed parameters listed on
page 104
. See Multi-axis Connections on page 110 for details on configuring
slave safety options.
TIP
Only the middle and last safety option in a multi-axis system can be configured
for slave modes.
