Contents of this chapter
This chapter describes the safety system when the FSO module is connected to a
safety PLC through a fieldbus adapter module using the PROFIsafe profile of
PROFINET. It describes the FSO module states and transitions and the contents of
the PROFIsafe messages. The chapter also includes installation instructions,
configuration instructions for the ABB AC500-S Safety PLC and Siemens SIMATIC
Fail-safe S7 PLC and fault tracing tips.
Introduction
When the drive is controlled from a safety PLC, the reliability of the fieldbus
communication must be secured. This can be done with the PROFIsafe technology.
The PROFIsafe technology includes several safety measures to minimize the effect
of various transmission errors that can occur when messages are transferred in a
complex network.
PROFIsafe is an application layer (protocol) that describes the safety communication
between fail-safe devices. It is an additional layer on top of the standard PROFIBUS
and PROFINET protocols.
There are two versions of the PROFIsafe protocol:
• V1 can only be used with PROFIBUS
• V2 can be used with PROFIBUS and PROFINET.
The FSO module supports version V2.4 with PROFINET.
The PROFIsafe protocol can be used for safety applications up to SIL 3 according to
IEC 61508 / IEC 62061, or up to PL e, cat. 4 according to EN ISO 13849-1.
