AS-Interface
Function and startup of the Safety Monitor
•
AS-i Control Tools via diagnostic interface or Ethernet
The following diagnostics can be displayed (see section <INT MON (internal mo-
nitor)>):
•
Display of the switching state of the outputs
•
State (“color”) of the devices and sub-devices
1
; distinction when turning off
only half (“Category 2“)
•
Error history for finding the cause of sporadic errors
8.4.1
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
Password protection
All safety-related commands are password protected. These include:
•
Loading configurations into the Monitor
•
Stopping
•
Learning code sequences
•
Releasing
•
Changing the password
8.5.1
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.
•
A PIN is a 4-digit number and can only be changed from the display, not via
the
ASIMON 3 G2
software.
1. For the sake of better diagnostics thet procedure is being expanded using a Device/Device Color for adding diagnostics based
on AS-i addresses (sub-devices) and their states.
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.
Information!
For additional information see section<Replacing a defective safety-configured AS-i
slave>.
