Appendix
10.1
System software
10.1.1
Introduction
The aim of this appendix is to provide and clarify the information related to the system
software. It includes the information necessary for the integrator during the installation
and integration in accordance with IEC 61508-3 Annex D.
Considering that safeRS3 is an embedded system provided with a firmware already
deployed on board, no software integration is required by the system installer or by the
end user. The following paragraphs analyzes all the information required in IEC 61508-
3 Annex D.
10.1.2
Configuration
The system configuration can be performed by means of a PC-based configuration tool,
called the safeRS3 Designer application.
The system configuration is described in
Installation and use procedures on page 64
.
10.1.3
Competence
Although no competence is required for software integration, a skilled person is
required for system installation and configuration, as described in
10.1.4
Installation instructions
The firmware is already deployed on the hardware, the PC-based configuration tool
includes a self-explanatory setup installer.
10.1.5
Outstanding anomalies
At the moment of the issue of this document, no software/firmware anomalies or bugs
are known.
10.1.6
Backward compatibility
Backward compatibility is guaranteed.
10.1.7
Change control
Any change proposal suggested by the integrator or by the end user should be
forwarded to SICK and evaluated by the Product Owner.
