6.6  Safety Integrated functions without configured support 
of the extended functions
When only Safety Integrated Basic functions are used, there is never support for the 
extended functions (see section Support of SINAMICS Safety Integrated
 functions by 
the T(F)-CPU (Page 186)). 
In principle, howev
er, it is possible to operate Safety Integrated extended functions without 
the support for Safety Integrated extended functions described in section Support of 
SINAMICS Safety Integrated function
s by the T(F)-CPU (Page 186). 
The following
 section provides information on the operation of the safety functions without 
configured support for extended functions. 
StatuswordSafety and SafeSpeedLimit variables in the TO DB of the axis 
Without configured support of the extended functions, you cannot use StatuswordSafety and 
SafeSpeedLimit. 
If you want the user program to respond to conditions of the Safety Integrated functions, you 
need to obtain information about the status of the Safety Integrated functions in the drive in a 
different way, for example, for TF-CPU by interpretation of the PROFIsafe message frame 
(control and status values). Example: If SLS is selected in the F program, then you can 
simultaneously reduce the speed in the motion program. 
Errors 8140, 8141 and 8142 
These errors are not generated without configured support of the extended functions. 
Error 8010 with SS1 and SS2 
Without the configured support of the extended functions, error 8010 occurs immediately 
after the selection of SS1 or SS2. The drive still brakes autonomously at the OFF3 ramp. 
The Release_Disable response triggered by error 8010 has no effect on the drive. 
Release_Disable while SS1 or SS2 is selected 
Without support of the extended functions, Release_Disable reactions during the braking to 
the OFF3 ramp will never have an effect on the drive. 
Follow-up mode with SS1 & SS2 
Without configured support of the extended functions,automatic follow-up mode will not be 
available. Neither is it possible for the user program to assume follow-up mode.
