Screen Page "PROFIBUS instrument control" 

On this screen page the bit states are displayed for the control word (STW) and the status word (ZSW). The instrument state that is given by the status word is made visible in the state machine. The present state is shown in black, all other states are shown in gray. In addition, the previous state is indicated by accentuation of the number for the corresponding arrow symbol. 


The following table describes the instrument states and the transitions. 

States of the state machine 

Not ready for switch-on 

Amplifier is not ready for switch-on. No operation readiness (BTB) is signaled from the amplifier software. 

Switch-on inhibited 

Amplifier is ready for switch-on. Parameters can be transferred, DC-link (DC-bus) can be switched on, motion functions cannot be carried out yet. 

Ready for switch-on 

DC-link voltage must be applied. Parameters can be transferred, motion functions cannot be carried out yet. 

Ready for operation 

DC-link voltage must be switched on. Parameters can be transferred, motion functions cannot be carried out yet. Output stage is switched on (enabled). 

Operation enabled 

No error present. Output stage is switched on, motion functions are enabled. 

Fast stop activated 

Drive has been stopped, using the emergency stop ramp. Output stage is switched on (enabled), motion functions are enabled. 

Error response active/error 

If an instrument error occurs, the Amplifier changes to the instrument state "Error response active". In this state, the power stage is switched off immediately. After this error response has taken place, it changes to the state "Error". This state can only be terminated by the bit-command "Error-reset".
To do this, the cause of the error must have been removed (see ASCII command ERRCODE). 



Transitions of the state machine 

Transition 0 

Event 

Reset / 24V supply is switched on 

Action 

Initialization started 

Transition 1 

Event 

Initialization successfully completed, amplifier switch-on inhibit 

Action 

none 

Transition 2 

Event 

Bit 1 (inhibit voltage) and Bit 2 (fast stop) are set in the control word
(command: shutdown). DC-link voltage is present. 

Action 

none 

Transition 3 

Event 

Bit 0 (switch-on) is also set (command: switch-on) 

Action 

Output stage is switched on (enabled). Drive has torque. 

Transition 4 

Event 

Bit 3 (operation enabled) is also set (command: operation enable) 

Action 

Motion functions are enabled, depending on the operating mode that is set. 

Transition 5 

Event 

Bit 3 is canceled (command: inhibit) 

Action 

Motion functions are disabled.
Drive is braked, using the relevant ramp (depends on operating mode). 

Transition 6 

Event 

Bit 0 is canceled (ready for switch-on). 

Action 

Output stage is switched off (disabled). Drive has no torque. 

Transition 7 

Event 

Bit 1 or Bit 2 is canceled. 

Action 

(Command: "Fast stop" or "Inhibit voltage") 

Transition 8 

Event 

Bit 0 is canceled (operation enabled -> ready for switch-on) 

Action 

Output stage is switched off (disabled) - motor loses torque. 

Transition 9 

Event 

Bit 1 is canceled (operation enabled -> switch-on inhibited) 

Action 

Output stage is switched off (disabled) - motor loses torque. 

Transition 10 

Event 

Bit 1 or 2 are canceled (ready for operation -> switch-on inhibited) 

Action 

Output stage is switched off (disabled) - motor loses torque. 

Transition 11 

Event 

Bit 2 is canceled (operation enabled -> fast stop) 

Action 

Drive is stopped, using the emergency ramp. The output stage remains enabled. Setpoints are canceled (e.g motion block number, digital setpoint). 

Transition 12 

Event 

Bit 1 is canceled (fast stop -> switch-on inhibited) 

Action 

Output stage is switched off (disabled) - motor loses torque. 

Transition 13 

Event 

Error response active 

Action 

Output stage is switched off (disabled) - motor loses torque. 

Transition 14 

Event 

Error 

Action 

none 

Transition 15 

Event 

Bit 7 is set (error -> switch-on inhibited) 

Action 

Acknowledge error (depending on error – with/without reset) 

Transition 16 

Event 

Bit 2 is set (fast stop -> operation enabled) 

Action 

Motion function is enabled again. 


The state transitions are affected by internal events (e.g. switching off the DC-link voltage) and by the flags in the control word (Bits 0, 1, 2, 3, 7).
