2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
The Motion Controllers with STO function described here are designed as slaves for control and position tasks in which safe shutdown of the torque is required. When the STO (Safe Torque Off – safe shutdown of the torque) safety function is requested, the outputs for the connected drive are safely switched torque-free.
The Motion Controllers with STO function are suitable for actuating the following motors:
Linear DC-Servomotors (brushless)
Brushless DC-Motors
The Motion Controller is not suitable for use in combination with stepper and brushed DC motors.
The Motion Controller is suitable in particular for tasks in the following fields of applica- tion:
Robotics
Toolbuilding
Automation technology
Industrial equipment and special machine building
Medical technology
Laboratory technology
When using the Motion Controllers the following aspects should be observed:
The Motion Controller contains electronic components and should be handled in accordance with the ESD regulations.
Do not use the Motion Controller in environments where it will come into contact with water, chemicals and/or dust, nor in explosion hazard areas.
The Motion Controller should be operated only within the limits specified in these installation instructions.
Please ask the manufacturer for information about use under individual special envi- ronmental conditions.
2.2 Safety instructions
In addition to the safety risks described in these installation instructions, machine-specific dangers could arise that cannot be foreseen by the manufacturer of the Motion Controller (e.g., risk of injury from driven components). The manufacturer of the machine in which the Motion Controller is installed must perform a risk analysis in accordance with the regula- tions applicable to the machine and inform the end user of the residual risks.
2.2.1 Dangers in the event of damages and changes
A defect or damage or change to the Motion Controller can impair its safety functions. If safety functions are unavailable, the drive can start up unexpectedly or shutdown of the torque may be ineffective. Depending on the use of the Motion Controller, this can lead to severe or fatal injury.
Do not start up a machine with a defective or damaged Motion Controller.
Appropriately mark a defective or damaged Motion Controller.
Do not replace defective or damaged components of the Motion Controller.
Make no changes (modifications, repairs) to the Motion Controller.
Have loose or defective connections immediately replaced by an electrician.
After replacing a defective or damaged Motion Controller, test and document the cor- rect function of the entire safety circuit.
Electrostatic discharges can damage the electronics.
Store and transport the Motion Controller in suitable ESD packaging.
Handle the Motion Controller in compliance with the ESD handling regulations (e.g.
wear an ESD wristband, earth surrounding components).
During installation, ensure that components in the surroundings cannot be electrostati- cally discharged.
Soiling, foreign bodies, humidity and mechanical influences can damage the electronics.
Keep foreign bodies away from the electronics.
Install the Motion Controller in a housing that protects it from mechanical influences and is adapted to the ambient conditions (protection class determination).
Installation and connection work whilst supply voltage is applied at the device can dam- age the electronics.
Do not insert or withdraw connectors whilst supply voltage is applied at the Motion Controller.
During all aspects of installation and connection work on the Motion Controller, switch off the power supply.
Incorrect connection of the pins can damage the electronic components.
Connect the wires as shown in the connection assignment.
2.2.2 Correct installation and commissioning
Errors during the installation and commissioning of the Motion Controller could impair its safety function. If safety functions are unavailable, the drive can start up unexpectedly or shutdown of the torque may be ineffective. Depending on the use of the Motion Control- ler, this can lead to severe or fatal injury.
Follow the instructions for installation and commissioning given in these installation instructions exactly.
Only have work on electrical operating equipment performed by an electrician.
Do not bypass the safety circuit.
Do not bypass STO inputs with Performance Level d (PL d) or higher.
To avoid crosstalk on signal lines, lay the power supply cable separate from the signal cable or take appropriate interference suppression measures.
During all work on the electrical equipment, observe the 5 safety rules:
a) Disconnect from power
b) Secure against being switched on again c) Check that no voltage is present
d) Ground and short-circuit
e) Cover or block-off adjacent parts that are under voltage
2.2.3 Heat development
Active components may cause the Motion Controller to heat up. If touched, there is a risk of burn- ing.
Protect the Motion Controller against being touched and cool sufficiently.
If necessary, affix a suitable warning sign in the immediate vicinity of the controller.
Fig. 1: Suitable warning sign acc. to DIN EN ISO 7010
2.3 Environmental conditions
Select the installation location so that clean dry air is available for cooling the Motion Controller.
Secure the Motion Controller against unauthorised access (e.g., install in a lockable switch cabinet).
Select the installation location so that the air has unobstructed access to flow around the drive.
When installed within housings and cabinets take particular care to ensure adequate cooling of the Motion Controller.
Select a power supply that is within the defined tolerance range.
Protect the Motion Controller against humidity and wet.
Protect the Motion Controller against chemical pollutants.
To store, protect the Motion Controller against dust, humidity and electrostatic charge (e.g., pack in ESD foil).
Observe technical data (see chap. 3.3, p. 16 and chap. 9.1, p. 61).
2.4 Requirements on the higher-level control
When switching on the Motion Controller, a self-test is performed automatically. The higher-level control must de-energise the Motion Controller and then switch it back on again daily to force the self-test. The internal diagnostics of the Motion Controller monitor the shutdown of the outputs during operation.
To achieve the required safety level SIL 3 acc. to IEC 61800-5-2 / EN 62061, the higher-level control must perform the following diagnostics and tests:
Evaluate and display the
error status message
STO status message
Monitor the STO signals for
short-circuit to ground or power supply
shunt
line breakage
hanging (signal/state)
Interruption
at the power supply return line
of the functional potential equalization cable
Provide indication of a self-test error, e.g., for the following reasons:
Faulty wiring
defective cables (cable breakage, loss of contact at the connector, short-circuit, hanging)
If the self-test reports errors, return the Motion Controller to the manufacturer with indica- tion of the error messages.
2.5 EC directives on product safety
The following EC directives and standards on product safety must be observed.
If the Motion Controller is being used outside the EU, international, national and regional directives must be also observed.
Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC)

3 Product description
3.1 General product description
The products MC 5004 P STO are variants of the FAULHABER Motion Controllers without housing and control either LM or BL motors. The Motion Controllers are configured here via the FAULHABER Motion Manager software (version 6.3 and higher).
The drives can be incorporated into the network by means of the CANopen or EtherCAT field bus interfaces. In smaller installations networking can be performed using the RS232 interface. The Motion Controller operates within the network principally as a slave. Master functionality for controlling other axes is not provided. Alternatively, after initial commis- sioning by the Motion Manager, the controller can also be operated without any communi- cations interface.
In drive applications, it is often necessary to safely isolate a motor in response to an exter- nal event, if, e.g., a protective door is opened or a light curtain is interrupted.
This safe shutdown is realized via the standardized, integrated STO (Safe Torque Off) safety circuit. Isolation is achieved here via two redundant inputs which, if the enabling voltage is lost, interrupt motor actuation and therefore switch the motor to a torque-free state.
Fig. 2: Functional principle
The connected motor is not actively braked in this situation, but is rather switched to a torqueless state. By means of LEDs and status and error message outputs, the current device state is signalled locally and reported to the higher-level control. The state of the inputs is not signalled.

The products of the MC 5004 P STO series may only be used in combination with brushless DC motors. Unlike brushed DC motors, these always require actuation. If the control signals are interrupted via the safety circuit, they are thereby safely shut off.
The controllers can be plugged into a motherboard via the 50-pin connector strip. FAUL- HABER offers an appropriately approved motherboard as accessory for this purpose.
With the integrated output stage with optimised current measurement, BL and LM motors from the FAULHABER product line from 12 to 32 mm can be controlled.
The following connections are available on the connector strip:
Communications interfaces
Common or separate power supplies between motor and controller (When using the motherboard, only shared power supply possible)
Various inputs and outputs
Motor phases
Feedback components such as:
Digital/analogue Hall sensors
Incremental encoders with or without line drivers.
Motion Controllers with RS232, CANopen or EtherCAT interfaces can also be operated independently of the communications interface if a pre-programmed function or sequence program has been programmed without digital command controls.

Fig. 9: Signal diagram
The STO function has a two-channel design. Each channel can perform the shutdown of the output signal, i.e., each STO input can independently initiate a shutdown. Execution of the STO function has priority over all other functions, i.e., triggering an STO signal suffices to switch off the output. The user has to take precautions to protect against automatic restart.
After voltage drops or voltage interruptions, the safety function switches to the fault state.
The fault state must be appropriately evaluated via the two STO outputs. After an error, it is only possible to switch back to the operating state after triggering an STO reset pulse. The fault state remains stored until the STO reset pulse is triggered.
The switch-on sequence must be executed daily (see chap. 2.4, p. 11). During this process, the state machine executes the sequence shown in Fig. 8.

4.2.3 Screening
Fig. 15: MC 50xx connection of a BL servomotor
Fig. 16: MC 50xx connection of a DC motor with encoder
Connect screen connections for the sensor systems and the motor cables to the Motion Controller to the earthed mounting plate or the screen connection screw on the Motion Controller by the shortest available route.
The best screening effect is achieved if the braiding is laid flat for instance on a screen terminal.
If the installation ensures potential equalisation, the braid can also be attached to an earthed surface on the motor.
Alternatively equalisation currents can also be suppressed by connected the cable screen at the motor end via a capacitor (approx. 1μF … 2μF / 50 V).

4.2.4 Connection of the power supply
Discrete inputs and outputs (for instance for discrete target values preselection or for connection of limit switches / reference switches)
Communication connections
Make sure that the connection cables to the connection side are not longer than 3 m.
Keep the screen connections for connection cables short and flat.
To reduce the effects on the DC power supply network, ferrite sleeves (such as WE 742 700 790) can be fitted on the supply cables.

4.2.4.1 Power supply
Connect the Motion Controller to a sufficiently dimensioned PELV power supply unit.
During acceleration procedures, current peaks with values up to the peak current limit setting of the motor can occur for multiples of 10 ms.
During braking procedures, energy can be regenerated and fed back into the DC power supply network. If this energy cannot be taken up by other drives, the voltage in the DC power supply network will rise. A limit value for the voltage that can be fed back dur- ing regenerative braking can be set in the Motion Controller. Alternatively the overvolt- age can be dissipated by an additional external brake chopper, see the data sheet for the brake chopper.
The USB port is a pure configuration connection. A cable length of < 3 m also applies to the USB connection.

4.2.7.1 Inputs
Analogue input
Fig. 22: Analogue input circuit diagram (internal)
The analogue inputs are executed as differential inputs. Both inputs use the same reference input.
The analogue inputs can be used flexibly:
Specification of set values for current, speed or position
Connection of actual value encoders for speed or position
Use as a free measurement input (queried via the interface) Digital input
Fig. 23: Digital input circuit diagram (internal)
The digital inputs are switchable from the input level (PLC/TTL). The digital inputs can be So that the voltage drop on the supply side does not affect the speed specification value, connect the analogue input ground (AGND) to the power supply ground (GND).

The safety function of the Motion Controller is not ensured if connected incorrectly.
Observe the safety information in chap. 4.2.1, p. 28 and chap. 2.2.2, p. 10.
WARNING! WARNING
Unexpected startup of the drive or shutdown of the torque.
Because there is no redundancy when the circuit of the two STO inputs is bridged, there is a risk of serious injury or death.
Bridged circuit (see Fig. 24) is only to be used for applications up to Performance Level c (PL a, PL b, PL c).
For applications with Performance Level d or higher (PL d, PL e) that use redundant cir- cuitry (see Fig. 25).

The following properties must be taken into account when connecting the STO inputs:
Input type: Type 3 acc. to DIN EN 61131-2
Protective separation: The inputs are electrically isolated from each other and from other circuits
Isolation voltage: Max. 110 V DC
Typical standby current per channel: 3 mA
Delay when changing from low to high and from high to low: <5 ms (typically 1 ms)
Evaluation of the input signals: Static evaluation. A change has immediate effect.
Design for test pulses: OSSD test pulses with a maximum test pulse duration of 400 μs and a maximum test pulse cycle of 100 ms

Fig. 28: Circuit diagram for the Status and No-Error STO outputs The STO outputs are redundantly linked via the LED:
LED illuminates: Low-impedance state of the outputs with 24 V as reference
LED does not illuminate: High-impedance state of the outputs with 24 V as reference The following properties must be taken into account when connecting the STO outputs:
Protective separation:
The outputs are not electrically isolated from one another. The inputs and the remaining electronics are galvanically isolated from earth.
An external suppressor circuit for the outputs is not necessary.
Power supply:
Common voltage supply with 24 V via the STO 24V In connection.
The supply line of the outputs must be protected against overcurrent. The provided plug connectors must be taken into account for the dimensioning.
Isolation voltage: The outputs are designed according to overvoltage category III for an isolation voltage of 800 V.
Output current:
The output current for both channels is <50 ma (short-circuit current STO Out Status and STO Out Error).
Each channel is limited to approx. 20 mA (<25 mA).
