AS-i Safety Monitor for 2 AS-i circuits
Function and startup of the Safety Monitor
Diagnostics data can be obtained in any of 4 ways:
•
Display
•
Diagnostics through AS-i (see section Diagnostics for AS-i Monitor and net-
working using AS-i Master).
•
ASIMON software over diagnostic port
•
AS-i Control Tools over diagnostic port
The following diagnostics can be displayed (see section DIAGNOSTICS):
•
Display of the switching state of the outputs
•
State (“color”) of the devices; distinction when turning off only one channel
(“Category 2“)
•
Error history for finding the cause of sporadic errors
8.5.1
Switch-off history
The switch-off history, accessible from the menu DIAGNOSTICS->INT MONI-
TOR->LAST DIAGNOSTIC, is intended to make reconstruction of the reason for
switch-off easier for the user. The states of all safety-relevant AS-i slaves and all
devices at the time the state change on the output device (change from green to
another color) are stored.
8.5.2
Profile and diagnostics using AS-i
Diagnostics is handled using an AS-i slave based on profile S-7.5.5. For additio-
nal information see section Diagnostics using Profile S-7.5.5.
8.6
Password protection
All safety-related commands are password protected. These include:
•
Loading configurations into the Monitor
•
Stopping
•
Learning code sequences
•
Releasing
•
Changing the password
8.6.1
Procedure for configuring and teaching code sequences
The configuration is created using
ASIMON 3 G2
software, loaded into the safety
unit and released. The name of the person releasing and the date are stored at
this moment. If code sequences controlled through the display are newly taught,
this is secured by a PIN to prevent unintended/unauthorized changing of the code
sequences.
Information!
No new release is necessary if when using safety-configured AS-i slaves code
sequences have been newly learned using the ESC/Service key.
