The Commissioning report lists relevant instructions for commissioning the option board. The Commissioning report can be printed from the VACON Safe tool with prefilled data or downloaded from the Danfoss website. ® If it is possible, commission the AC drive first without the Advanced safety option board to make sure that your process is operation-...

4.1 Installation Safety 4.2 Installing the Option Board. Commission the new option board. Keep the replaced option board for further use, or contact Danfoss for possible analysis of the option board. Also see 10.8 Disposal. After replacing the option board, the next start-up is the first start-up of the new option board. Do the checks and procedures of the first start-up.
For detailed description of the Advanced safety option board and its features, see the Advanced safety options Operating Guide.

4 • VACON 3 Validation steps General testing instructions The commissioning tests in this document are focused on validating the functionality of the integrated safety functions and the related stopping and monitoring functions configured in the drive system. The test objective is to verify proper configuration of the defined safety functions and of test mechanisms, and to examine the response of specific monitoring functions to the explicit input of values outside tolerance limits.

VACON Figure 1: Preparing and commissioning a safety system that includes the Advanced safety option board Preparing for the commissioning before the first start-up of the system with the option board 1. Read carefully the warnings in chapter Safety of the Advanced safety options Operating Guide.
6 • VACON The fieldbus connection can be established. (If a fieldbus is used.) • 12. Have a computer available with a software to control and parameterise the AC drive and the option boards, and to store test logs and parameters. 13.
VACON the Advanced safety options Operating Guide for more information. Reset the faults. The drive is not ready. The warning F30 SafeTorqueOff is shown. NOTE! If the option board has been used in a previous configuration, it is possible that it has a valid parameter file already.
8 • VACON using a safe I/O of the option board using a safe fieldbus from the drive control board (triggered by the fault reset signal of the AC drive). Depending on the configuration, some of the methods may be disabled or not taken into use. If the Advanced safety option board is set to the manual start-up acknowledgement mode, an acknowledgement signal is required after the start-up to deactivate the STO safety function.
VACON If necessary, acknowledge the safety function or reset the violations if violations occurred. Repeat the steps 3 to 6 for each safety function intended to be used over the safe fieldbus. This can be done as a part of the safety function tests listed in following chapters.

10 • VACON SBC-2 The mechanical brake becomes active as expected. SBC Reached is indicated in the used status output: The physical output of the option board The safety fieldbus status message Caution: Depending on the parameterisation the brake may become active before the STO function is activated.
Page 201
VACON Give a RUN request to the AC drive. Activate the SS1 function from the desired source. The drive should ramp down towards standstill. The behaviour of the ramp down is dependent on the way the ramp down is realised (e.g. drive application, external speed reference).
12 • VACON The SS1 tests have been executed, possible deviations documented and □ testing approved. Notes: 3.7.3 SS2 + SOS Step Instructions Comments Make sure that the drive is in READY state. Make sure that no safety functions requested. Give a RUN request to the AC drive.
VACON NOTE! The faults that are shown and their type (Fault or Warning) depend on the settings of the AC drive. NOTE! F47 SafetyReached, subcode: SS2 (3), indicates that the SS2 safety function is Reached and that the SOS safety function is active.

14 • VACON SBC-1 Make sure that the mechanical brake is deactivated. Make sure that SBC Reached is deactivated in the used status output: The physical output of the option board The safe fieldbus status message STO-2 Activate the SQS function from the desired source. STO-3 Make sure that the drive is not in READY state.

VACON Notes: 3.7.4.2 SQS-SS1 The SQS function as a violation response is tested during the testing of a safety function that uses the SQS function as its violation response. The SQS-SS1 function from an external source: the test instructions are similar to that of SS1 test instructions in 3.7.2 SS1.

16 • VACON Warning: F46 SafetyRequest, subcode: SQS (4). Warning: F47 SafetyReached, subcode: SQS (4). NOTE! The faults that are shown and their type (Fault or Warning) depend on the settings of the AC drive. Deactivate the SQS function. If the manual acknowledgement mode is used: do a check that the STO function is not deactivated automatically.

VACON Time mode: The SOS function is activated after a delay. Make sure that the delay is correct for the process. Time + Zero speed mode: The SOS function is activated after the speed goes below a defined speed. Time + Zero speed + Ramp mode: The SOS function is activated after the speed goes below a defined speed.

18 • VACON The SQS-SS2 tests have been executed, possible deviations documented □ and testing approved. Notes: 3.7.5 When possible, test the SQS safety function before the SLS safety function. Do the test steps for all the used SLS limits. Step Instructions Comments...
VACON Applicable faults are shown: Warning: F47 SafetyReached, subcode: SQS (4). Warning: F48 SafetyViolat, Safety function: SLS, subcode: 5. NOTE! The faults that are shown and their type (Fault or Warning) depend on the settings of the AC drive. The drive is in NOT READY state or in RUN state. NOTE! In the SQS-SS2 mode the drive should stay in RUN state.

20 • VACON A warning should occur to indicate the SMS function activation: Warning: F46 SafetyRequest, subcode: SMS (12). Warning: F47 SafetyReached, subcode: SMS (12). NOTE! The display of the warning depends on the settings of the AC drive. NOTE! Depending on the SMS parameter values, the function may be reached after a delay.
VACON Notes: 3.7.7 When possible, test the SQS safety function before the SSR safety function. Do the test steps for all the used SSR limits. Step Instructions Comments Make sure that the drive is in READY state. Make sure that no safety functions requested. Give a RUN request to the AC drive.
22 • VACON NOTE! The faults that are shown and their type (Fault or Warning) depend on the settings of the AC drive. The drive is in NOT READY state or in RUN state. NOTE! In the SQS-SS2 mode the drive should stay in RUN state.
Page 213
VACON NOTE! The display of warnings depends on the settings of the AC drive. Increase the speed above the reached SSM limit. When you are testing the SSM minimum limit, decrease the speed below the limit instead. Speed is outside the safe range. The SQS function is not active.
24 • VACON After commissioning NOTE! The information in this chapter is also included in the Advanced safety options Operating Guide. After the commissioning of the system with the option board, the parameter file stored in the option board can be validated. Step Instructions Comments...
