Function test
To assure the safety of the module, perform a function test of safety functions once a
year. This involves testing the function and/or disengagement capability of the modules
used during configuration work (inputs, outputs, monitoring functions and logic
modules). See also CTSafePro help.
6.4
Validation
To ensure that safety functions have been implemented, the user needs to check and
document parameters and links on completion of the start-up and configuration process.
This is supported by the validation assistant in the programming user interface as
detailed in Section 6.5.
The validation report details are described in Chapter 11 Validation report on page 81.
6.5
Technical safety test
On completion of start-up / commissioning, installers must ensure that the relevant
safety functions have been implemented, and that parameters and links have been
documented.
This process is supported by the 'CTSafePro' configuration software validation report
(see Chapter 2 Device type on page 14). The first two header pages give general
details about the system and require manual data entry. The last header page contains
individual verification of the technical safety test.
It is essential that the label details as shown in Figure 2-1 on page 16 are
recorded.
The person responsible for testing the safety module should also confirm that the CRC
displayed on the programming user interface is identical to the CRC stored in the SM-
Safety module.
The report also includes the PLC listing and details of the sensor, input/output and
function block configuration.
After transmitting the configuration and program data to the SI-Safety module, the
status LED flashes yellow. This indicates that the configuration data have not yet been
validated. By confirming with the 'BLOCK CONFIGURATION' button at the end of the
validation dialogue, the data are marked as 'validated' and the LED flashes green.
