Carrying out tests
You must ensure safety in your plant.
Before finally commissioning a system, carry out complete functional testing as well as all the
necessary safety testing.
Also, test for any predictable faults that can occur. This means that you will avoid any danger
to the plant or to people during operation.
Risks
In all cases where the occurrence of failures can result in material damage or injury to persons,
take special measures to enhance the safety of the installation - and the application. System-
specific and special regulations exist for such applications. Follow these regulations exactly
when installing the control system (for example, VDE 0116 for burner control systems).
For electronic control equipment with a safety function, the measures that you must take to
prevent or rectify faults are based on the risks involved in the installation. Beyond a certain
degree of hazard the basic measures mentioned above are not sufficient and you must take
additional safety measures for the controller.
Important information
Follow the instructions in the operating manual exactly. Incorrect handling can render measures
intended to prevent dangerous faults ineffective, or generate additional sources of danger.

Maximum IDEC SmartRelay network setup

Maximum IDEC SmartRelay network setup
IDEC SmartRelay supports FL1F Communication over a 10/100 Mbit/s TCP/IP Ethernet
network.
An IDEC SmartRelay can support the following network connections:
•
A maximum of 16 TCP/IP-based FL1F Communication connections with the following
devices:
– Additional IDEC SmartRelay
There are two types of connections available for FL1F Communication, static connection
and dynamic connection. For the static connection, the server reserves the required
resources for the connected client to ensure stable data transfer. For the dynamic
connection, the server responds to a communication request only when free resources are
available. You can configure the static/dynamic connections as required, for example, n
static connections and 16-n dynamic connections. IDEC SmartRelay supports a maximum
of eight static connections.
•
A maximum of one TCP/IP Ethernet connection with the Text Display. A Text Display
module can connect with different Base Modules through IP address selection, but can not
communicate with more than one Base Module at the same time.
