Acceptance test mode active

Siemens · SINAMICS G120

What does C01799 mean?

The acceptance test mode is currently active, indicating that safety functions are being validated. This is a normal state during commissioning or re-validation of safety parameters and functions.

Common Causes

  • Commissioning engineer explicitly activated acceptance test mode via control panel or engineering software (e.g., Safety Integrated Commander).
  • Safety parameters (e.g., P30600, P30601) were modified, requiring re-validation of safety functions.
  • Initial power-up or system reset after a major configuration change or firmware update.
  • Completion of a mandatory safety documentation procedure for machine validation.
