Disable the Safe Torque-off Feature

The safe torque-off feature is used in applications used in safety conditions. This feature safely
removes power from the gate firing circuits of the drives output power devices (IGBTs). The
feature is enabled by default when the Kinetix 350 drive ships from the factory.

If your application, for example, the one used in this quick start, does not require the use of safety
options, you disable the safe torque-off feature. You use jumper wires, as shown, to disable the
safe torque-off feature. The tasks in this quick start are not completed in an environment that
includes safety conditions. You can disable the safe torque-off feature.

Complete these steps to disable the safe torque-off feature.

1.

Remove the STO connector from
the drive.

2.

Install STO Motion-allowed
jumpers at the termination points
as shown.

3.

Insert the STO connector into the
bottom of the drive.
