SC22-3 Safety Controller
Instruction Manual
Overview
1.4 Configuring the Safety Controller
Building a configuration for the Safety Controller is a simple
process, using one of two interfaces: the push buttons and
display on the Controller itself (the Onboard Interface, or OBI) or
the PCI software program included on the enclosed CD
(p/n 134534) . The process comprises three main steps:
1. Define the safeguarding application (risk assessment).
• Determine the required devices
• Determine the required level of safety
2. Build the configuration.
• Select safety input device types and circuit connections
• Map each input to one or more safety outputs, or to other
input devices
• Set optional safety output ON- or OFF-time delays
• Select non-safety input device types and circuit connections,
if needed
• Assign status output signals, if needed
• Create configuration name, file name, date, author name,
and notes
3. Confirm the configuration.
• Controller verifies that the desired configuration is valid .
• User confirms that the configuration is what is expected .
1.4.1 Onboard Interface (OBI)
The Safety Controller can be configured using its built-in push
buttons and LCD screen, the Onboard Interface (OBI) . The LCD
display provides I/O device and system status information for any
event that causes one or more of the safety outputs to turn OFF .
The display is used in conjunction with the six push buttons to:
• Create or modify password-protected configurations,
• Retrieve fault log information,
• Review device wiring detail and I/O logic relationships, and
• Display I/O device fault details and likely remedial steps .
NOTE: Onboard Interface functions are covered in more detail
in Section 5 and the OBI tutorial, Appendix C .
Accessing Fault Codes
The Fault codes are displayed in the last line of the OBI fault
diagnostics menu (see example below) . Refer to Sections 5 and
8 for more information .
