You must observe all information in this manual as well as in the documents listed in
Section "Documentation" on page 1-5.
The safety of personnel and equipment can only be assured if the safety module is used
correctly (see Section "Correct usage" on page 1-5).
Depending on the wiring and the corresponding setting of the safe output module
parameters, the VersaSafe or PROFIsafe system can detect various errors within the
safety equipment.
Repair work may not be carried out on the safety module.
In the event that an error cannot be removed, please contact GE Intelligent Platforms
immediately, engage a service engineer or send the faulty module directly to GE Intelligent
Platforms.
It is strictly prohibited to open the safety module housing. In order to prevent the
manipulation of the safety module and to detect the unauthorized opening of the safety
module, a security seal is applied to the module. This security seal is damaged in the event
of unauthorized opening. In this case, the correct operation of the safety module can no
longer be ensured.
Take measures to prevent the incorrect connection, polarity reversal, and manipulation of
connections.
