Security Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that
information
support the secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber
threats, it is necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic,
state-of-the-art industrial security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions
constitute one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants,
systems, machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components
should only be connected to an enterprise network or the internet if and to the
extent such a connection is necessary and only when appropriate security
measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network segmentation) are in place.
For additional information on industrial security measures that may be
implemented, please visit https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity.
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them
more secure. Siemens strongly recommends that product updates are applied as
soon as they are available and that the latest product versions are used. Use of
product versions that are no longer supported, and failure to apply the latest
updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber threats.

Connecting different safety outputs to safety inputs of SINAMICS V90

1 Introduction
1.1 Preliminary remark
This frequently asked question (FAQ) describes the topic “The wiring for the V90
STO input”. The document explains how to connect different safety outputs from
different sources to the safety inputs of SINAMICS V90 PN/PTI.

1.2 Safety integrated function

The integrated safety function “Safe Torque Off” (STO) prevents the drive from
restarting unexpectedly.
The safety function “STO” will be controlled via terminals and the terminal is shown
in figure 1-1:

Figure 1-1: Standard configuration for the STO function

In the figure 1-1 STO1 and STO2 are the safety input pins. In the standard
configuration both inputs are bridged with STO+ to deselect STO (STO is not
active). The standard configuration explains the type of the safety input: P/P
switched input.
The STO+ pin is supplied by the standard 24V supply from the drive itself. The
STO+ pin is used to supply external safety devices / components which are
redirected to the V90 STO1/2 inputs.
The common pin of the safety inputs is the M pin which is also the M pin for the
standard 24V power supply of the drive.

NOTE If the customer is using the STO function then the bridge between
STO1 --STO+ - STO2 has to be removed. The wiring to the external safety
outputs / devices has to be installed.

CAUTION Safety function STO will deactivate the drive sporadically caused by
different 24V level with a fault message F01611.
If the application contains 2 or more different 24V DC power supply for the drive
and the safety components / devices then the error F01611 can occur. The
sporadic error is a result of an open loop between the STOx 24V-pin and the
necessary M-pin which is connected from another 24V power supply of the drive.
The problem can be avoided by connecting the common terminal of both power
supplies together.

 1 Introduction

The behavior of the SINAMICS V90 STO function is shown in table 1-1:

Table 1-1
Terminal State Action
STO1 STO2
HIGH HIGH STO not The servo motor will run when you power on
active the servo drive. STO is now deactivated.
There is no other error shown by the inverter.
LOW LOW STO active The servo motor will not run when you power
on the servo drive. The pulses from the
inverter are deactivated by selecting STO.
There is no error shown by the inverter.
HIGH LOW Error active/ Error F01611 occurs and the pulses from the
Internal STO drive have been deactivated with the error.
LOW HIGH Error active/ Error F01611 occurs and the pulses from the
Internal STO drive have been deactivated with the error.

The STO function integrated in SINAMICS V90 drive is a smart function. Customer
doesn’t need to set any parameters to activate or adjust this function.

 3 SINAMICS V90 connected to ET 200S F-RO

Figure 3-1 shows the direct supplied safety component / device from one DC24V
power supply. The STO+ pin is not used in this case.
Figure 3-2 shows the case that the DC power supply for the safety component /
device is supplied by the STO+ pin output of the V90.

Both solutions are equal because the main supply for the drive and the safety
component / device is the same.

Both solutions are equal because the main supply for the drive and the safety
component / device is the same.
