Basic settings

Delay time of energy storage separation

With the fault response "Delayed energy storage separation (20)", the energy storage unit is disconnected with a delay. The "Delay time of energy storage separation" can be used to set the maximum delay time until disconnection. If axes are linked to the software module via the "Energy coupling" function, their standstill is waited for and only then is the energy storage disconnected. The "Delay time of energy storage separation" can also be used to set a maximum waiting time in which the energy storage is disconnected when the axes report their standstill OR the specified time has elapsed. This time should be set according to the application in such a way that an emergency stop of the application can be performed within this time.

Delay time output stage inhibit of power supply module

For the fault response "Immediate energy storage separation (30)", you can set the time after which the output stage of the MDP92A/MDE90A is inhibited using the "Output stage inhibit delay time of the power supply module". This function is useful, for example, for moving the system to a safe position after disconnecting the energy storage unit. MDP92A/MDE90A allows the DC link to be actively charged for the set time. After the set time, the output stage is also inhibited so that no active energy flow is possible. This time should be set specific to the application so that the system can still be moved to a safe position if a fault occurs with this fault response.
