F30600

SI P2: STOP A initiated

Siemens · SINAMICS G120C Variable Speed Drive

What does F30600 mean?

The drive-integrated "Safety Integrated" function on processor 2 has detected an error and initiated a STOP A. This is often caused by an unsuccessful forced checking procedure of the safety shutdown path or as a consequence of F30611. This fault indicates a critical issue within the safety system, preventing drive operation and requiring immediate resolution to maintain machine and personnel safety.

Common Causes

  • Forced checking procedure (FCP) of the safety shutdown path on processor 2 has failed, possibly due to a detected inconsistency in the safe output.
  • External safety device connected to the second safety channel has activated, triggering a safe stop due to a detected unsafe condition.
  • Internal synchronization or communication error between the safety processors P1 and P2, leading to a safety fault.
  • Hardware defect within the Safety Integrated module for processor 2, causing a failure in its monitoring functions.

Repair Steps & Checklist

Click steps to track your progress.

  1. 1

    Identify the specific external safety device (e.g., E-stop, safety door) connected to the P2 safety channel and verify its status (e.g., closed, open).

  2. 2

    Check the wiring integrity of the safety circuit, specifically the connections to the relevant STO inputs for processor 2.

  3. 3

    Review the drive's safety log (r9700) for specific fault codes related to the P2 processor or the FCP.

  4. 4

    Initiate a forced checking procedure (FCP) via parameter P9500 (if applicable to P2) to confirm the functionality of the safety output path.

  5. 5

    Perform a power cycle of the drive system (main power off/on) to reset the Safety Integrated module and internal processors.
