Safe Torque Off (STO) Channel Mismatch

Hva betyr FA82 ?

This fault indicates a discrepancy in the status of the two Safe Torque Off (STO) channels. The drive's diagnostics have detected that the STO channels are not in the same state, or that STO was attempted to be activated in a non-redundant manner (e.g., only one channel activated). This prevents the STO safety function from operating correctly and will cause the drive to trip, leading to an uncontrolled stop or inability to start, posing a safety risk if machine motion is not reliably prevented.

• Mismatch detected between STO safety channels, indicating a potential wiring or logic fault.
• One of the STO safety inputs failed to reach the expected state during system startup.
• An internal comparison failure within the safety module detected inconsistent STO signal paths.

1. 1

   Verify that both STO channels are receiving the correct and synchronous control signals from the safety controller. Inspect wiring and connections for integrity and proper termination.

2. 2

   Review the logic and timing of the external safety system or controller that commands the STO function, ensuring both channels are activated and deactivated simultaneously.

3. 3

   Check parameter 31.22 (STO fault/warning indication delay) in the drive's control program to understand the timing of fault detection and confirm it aligns with system expectations.

4. 4

   If the issue persists after verifying external control and wiring, consult the drive's firmware manual for advanced diagnostics related to STO indications and internal status.

5. 5

   If troubleshooting does not resolve the fault, contact ABB support as this may indicate an internal STO circuit failure within the drive that requires specialized attention.
