5.1
Configuring the AS-Interface Safety Monitor
For details of necessary organizational measures affecting configuration of the safety monitor,
please refer to the documentation for the safety monitor.
Safety Classification
The module contains two independent, redundant input channels. If both input channels are
used, the module is suitable for use up to category 4/PL e in accordance with ISO 13849-1, or
SIL 3 in accordance with EN/IEC 61508 and EN/IEC 62061. In this case, the monitor must be
programmed so that dual-channel switching is monitored.
If a single-channel switch is used, the module is suitable for use up to category 2/PL c in accor-
dance with ISO 13849-1, or SIL 1 in accordance with EN/IEC 61508 and EN/IEC 62061. Only
tested and certified power supplies with safe isolation may be used to supply power. These
power supplies must have PELV voltage in accordance with EN 50295/IEC 62026-2, and a
minimum MTBF of 50 years. The power supplies are designed to exclude a short circuit
between the primary and secondary sides.
5.2
Assigning an Address to the Module
Assign an address to the module using a handheld or an AS-Interface master. You can assign
addresses from 1 to 31. The default safety module address is 0.
5.3
Operational Testing
Perform function tests as part of the installation by activating the safety function. The opera-
tional test uncovers all existing faults at the time of installation. Because the safe inputs are
monitored for crossed circuits, it is not necessary to test for short circuits in the cabling.
Performing a Function Test
1.
Activate the safety function by interrupting the input. This can be done by actuating a
connected mechanical switch or on the cable.
2.
Check whether the safety monitor detects the interruption without issuing a fault message.
3.
Stop the interruption on the input on the connected mechanical switch or on the cable.
4.
Enable the input on the safety monitor.
5.4
Operating Mode
No operating modes can be activated for the inputs.
Note
In the case of single-channel safety functions, test the function for each channel.
For applications of category 4/PL e in accordance with ISO 13849-1 or SIL 3 in accordance
with EN/IEC 61508 and EN/IEC 62061, the two inputs must be monitored using the safety
monitor to ensure that they are synchronous.
