5.1
Parameterization in a VersaSafe system
Parameterization includes the following:
–
Specifying the VersaSafe address for the corresponding configurable logic module
–
Parameterization of outputs
The VersaSafe address is a unique ID for the safety module in the VersaSafe structure. It
is assigned in the configuration software for the assigned configurable logic module.
The address of the connected satellites (here: IC220SDL840) is based on the island
number of the configurable logic module and the position in the hardware editor of the
VersaConf Safety software tool.
Set this address via the DIP switches prior to assembling the safety module (see Section
"Setting the DIP switches" on page 4-2).
For more detailed information about the VersaSafe address, please refer to the
documentation for the configurable logic module used.
The parameterization of the safe outputs determines the behavior of the module and thus
has a considerable effect on the safety integrity level that can be achieved.
To parameterize the module, the parameterization of the configurable logic module created
in the parameterization tool is automatically written to the module on every power up or
reset.
The module cannot be operated if it is not parameterized.
In this case, the FS LED flashes.
The module is ready to operate if the parameters for all outputs are valid and transmitted
without errors. Valid output data is only written in this state. In any other state, every output
is set to the safe state.
If errors are detected during parameterization, the parameterization data is not transmitted.
The invalidity of the parameterization is indicated on the module by the flashing FS LED.
In addition, errors are indicated at the configurable logic module. In this case, check and
correct the settings.
5.2
Parameterization in a PROFIsafe system
Parameterization includes the following:
–
Assigning the PROFIsafe address via the configuration software of the control system
manufacturer
–
Parameterization of outputs
–
Specifying the parameterizable F-Parameters and iParameters
The PROFIsafe address is a unique ID for the safety module in the PROFIsafe structure.
It is assigned in the configuration software. Set this address via the DIP switches prior to
assembling the safety module (see "Setting the DIP switches" on page 4-2).
