Enabling Switch with an Integrated Safety Controller and a POINT Guard I/O Safety Module Safety Function Application Technique
Configuration
The safety controller is configured by using the Studio 5000 Logix Designer® application. You must create a project and add the POINT Guard
I/O modules. A detailed description of each step is beyond the scope of this document. Knowledge of the Logix Designer application is
assumed.
For a Studio 5000 Logix Designer project file that you can import into your own project, see the attached ACD file. The attached ACD file
includes a GuardLogix 5570 controller, but if you choose a Compact GuardLogix 5370 controller, you can change the controller in the Logix
Designer program. Make sure that the controller that is used in your safety function is the same controller used in your SISTEMA PL
calculation.

Create a Project with a GuardLogix Controller
If you are not using the attached ACD file, follow these steps to create a project.
1.
In the Logix Designer application, create a project with a GuardLogix controller that includes the following:
• A connection to an Ethernet network
GuardLogix 5570 controllers require the use of an Ethernet communication module, but
Compact GuardLogix 5370 controllers have Ethernet ports.
• Time Synchronization enabled on the controller and any Ethernet communication modules, if used
2.
Set the IP Address for the controller or any Ethernet communication modules, if used.
3. Add a POINT I/O™ Ethernet adapter module to your project.
4. Add POINT Guard I/O modules to your project.
5. Configure the modules properly for your application.
