8.3 Perform a Commissioning Checkout
Perform the Commissioning Checkout procedure as part of the SX5 installation (after it has been interfaced to the guarded
machine as described) or after changes are made to the system (either a new configuration of the SX5 or changes to the
machine).
Perform the Commissioning Checkout procedure after:
• Configuring the SX5 with the configuration software
• Connecting to the 8-pin M12/Euro-style pigtail of the SX5 to the control system or safety switching device
• Verify the cover to the 4-pin M12/Euro-Style Ethernet connector is in place over the connector or a cable is securely
connected.
Record the checkout results and store on or near the guarded machine as required by applicable standards.
WARNING:
• There is a risk of unpredictable machine behavior at the initial start up of the machine.
• Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or death.
• The Qualified Person must take precautions to ensure that no one is in or near the hazardous
area during these safety system tests.
1. Examine the guarded machine to verify that it is of a type and design compatible with the SX5. For a list of
appropriate and inappropriate applications, see
2. Verify the SX5 is configured for the intended application and all mounting hardware is secured.
3. Verify that the minimum safety (separation) distance from the closest hazard of the guarded machine to the Safety
Zone(s) is not less than the calculated distance. See
Minimum Safety (Separation) Distance for Stationary
on page 33.
4. Verify that:
a) Access to any dangerous parts of the guarded machine is not possible from any direction not protected by the
SX5, hard guarding, or supplemental safeguarding; and
b) It is not possible for a person to stand between or climb over/under the protected Field(s) and the dangerous
parts of the machine, or stand on top of the SX5; or
c) Supplemental safeguarding and hard guarding, as described by the appropriate safety standards, are in place
and functioning properly in any space between the Safety Zone(s) and any hazard that is large enough to allow a
person to be undetected by the SX5.
5. Verify that all reset switches are mounted outside and in full view of the guarded area, out of reach of anyone inside
the guarded area, and that means of preventing inadvertent use is in place.
6. Examine the electrical wiring connections between the Scanner OSSD outputs and the guarded machine’s control
elements to verify that the wiring meets the requirements stated in
Connections to the Guarded Machine
7. Remove all obstructions from the Safety Zone(s). Apply power to the SX5 system. Verify that power to the guarded
machine is off.
• If the SX5 is configured for Start Interlock (Manual Power-Up), LED 1 will show green, LED 5 will be on and the
display shows RESTART (Interlock 1). Perform a manual reset (close the reset switch for 0.5 to 4.5 seconds, then
open the switch) to turn on the OSSD outputs.
• If the SX5 is configured for Automatic Start (Automatic Reset), LED 1 will show GREEN and the display will show
GO, and the OSSD outputs turn on (after the restart delay time).
8. Observe the Diagnostic Display.
• Lockout—Lockout information listed on the display.
• Safety Zone interrupted—Red STOP shown on display with direction of interruption also red.
• Safety Zone Clear and OSSDs on—Green GO shown on the display.
• Start/Restart Interlock (OSSDs off, waiting for reset)—Restart in a circle with Interlock below it shown on the
display.
9. An interrupted Safety Zone (SZ) condition indicates that one or more objects are being detected within the active
protected Zone. To correct this situation, identify the interruption using the software's Monitoring mode or by
observing the area covered by the Safety Zone, and then remove all objects or realign the SX5. If the system is in a
Start/Restart Interlock (waiting for Reset) condition, perform a manual reset.
