SI P1 (CU): STOP A initiated
Siemens · SINAMICS S120/S150 Reference List
What does F01600 mean?
The drive-integrated "Safety Integrated" function on the Control Unit (CU) has detected a fault, initiating a STOP A (Safe Torque Off via the safety shutdown path). This can be caused by an unsuccessful forced checking procedure of the safety shutdown path or as a subsequent response to a defect in a monitoring channel (F01611). The drive will react with an OFF2 state, requiring an immediate POWER ON cycle for acknowledgment.
Common Causes
- Discrepancy or failure detected within the safety circuit connected to the Control Unit (CU) (e.g., emergency stop button stuck, safety gate switch open).
- Internal fault within the Safety Integrated function module on the CU, indicating a hardware or software malfunction.
- Incorrect parameterization of safety functions (e.g., P9500, P9601) on the CU, leading to an invalid safety state.
- External safety monitoring device (e.g., safety PLC, safety relay) issuing a STOP A command due to its own detected safety violation.
- Wiring fault in the safety chain (e.g., open circuit, short circuit) causing the safety function to trip.
Repair Steps & Checklist
Click steps to track your progress.
- 1
1. Check the status of all external safety devices (e.g., E-Stop buttons, light curtains, safety door interlocks) connected to the safety inputs of the CU.
- 2
2. Access the safety diagnostics (e.g., r9770, r9771) in the drive parameters to identify the specific cause reported by the Safety Integrated function.
- 3
3. Verify the wiring integrity of the safety circuit, ensuring correct connections to terminals X124, X125, X126 (example for PROFIsafe) on the CU.
- 4
4. Perform a safety function test (e.g., activate E-Stop, open gate) as per machine safety standards to confirm proper operation of the safety chain.
- 5
5. Review safety-related parameters (e.g., P9500, P9601, P9800) in the drive configuration for consistency with the machine's safety concept.
- 6
6. Cycle power to the Control Unit (CU) to reset any transient internal safety logic states, then re-check the fault.
