General safety instructions

Performing a function test when installing the device in machines or systems
Following the results of a risk analysis, additional protection equipment on the machine or
the system is necessary to avoid endangering persons. In particular, the programming,
parameter assignment and wiring of the inserted I/O must be executed in accordance with
the safety performance identified by the necessary risk analysis (SIL, PL or Cat.). The
intended use of the device has to be ensured.
The proper use of the device has to be verified with a function test on the system. These
tests help you to identify programming, parameter assignment and wiring errors. The test
results have to be recorded and, if necessary, entered into the safety verification
documents.
