6.3.5.2 Speed Monitoring

The monitoring starts when the SSM function is requested and becomes active. The monitoring of the maximum speed is specified
in EN IEC 61800-5-2. The monitoring of the minimum speed is an extra feature that is not specified by the standard.

It is possible to disable the monitoring of a speed limit by setting its monitor value to 0 rpm. However, if the monitoring of the
maximum speed is disabled, the SSM function cannot monitor excess speed.
The behavior of the function is the same for both the speed limits. See also

The SSM function does not report a violation if the speed goes outside the range that is defined by the speed limits. Only the safe
output signal indicates the situation.
Unlike other safe monitoring functions, the monitoring of the SSM function does not stop when a violation occurs in another safety
function, or when the STO function becomes active. The SSM output and the SSM signals are updated throughout the violation
situation and during the standstill caused by the STO function.

6.3.5.3 The SSM Safe Output

The state of the SSM safe output is determined by the speed of the motor and whether the SSM function is active. The table below
shows the state of the SSM safe output and the SSM Reached signal that corresponds to the output state.
