3.3 Safety Integrated Advanced Functions
3.3.2
Safely-Limited Position (SLP)
Definition according to EN 61800-5-2:
"The SLP function prevents the motor shaft
from exceeding the specified position limit(s)."
The Safely-Limited Position function (SLP) is used to safely monitor the limits of two
traversing and/or positioning ranges, which are toggled between using a safe signal.
Examples of how the function can be used
Example
The drive must not exit the specified position rang-
es.
Features
● Selection via terminals or PROFIsafe
● 2 position ranges, each defined by a limit switch pair
● Safe switchover between the two position ranges
● Settable stop response
● To run the motor out of the prohibited range, you must perform a special sequence (see
Chapter "Retraction (Page 182)").
Preconditions
● The function is only available with a suitable encoder.
● The drive has to be safely referenced (see Chapter "Safe referencing (Page 65)").
Details and parameterization
For further details and information on how to parameterize this function, see Section "Safely-
Limited Position (SLP) (Page 178)".

Possible solution
Selection of SLP in the converter; inhibiting
•
the range that is not permitted.
After the enabled range has been exited, a
•
parameterizable stop response is initiated.
