Introduction This Safety Manual contains detailed information, which is required to integrate the radio remote control into a safety-related system. The safety manual is applicable for all Scanreco remote control systems based on the SISP technology. The Safety Manual only specifies the safety classified functions and interfaces of the radio remote control system.
There are four different safety classified functions handled by SISP 4.1. Stop Function The Scanreco remote control system shall reach a safe state when the stop button on the transmitter is pressed or an Automatic/Passive stop occurs. Safety parameters Value...
STOP button activation. Integrators Implementation The Scanreco remote control system have the following safety classified interfaces that must be used by the integrator to comply with above stated values for each safety function. NOTICE! The Scanreco responsibility for the safety classified functions ends by the receiver connector.
No element affecting safety classified behavior is configurable by the integrator. 6.1. Safety Related Parameters There are no safety related parameters in the Scanreco remotes based on SISP platform. However, the CAN safety SCT time is allowed to be changed. It is the SRDO consumers responsibility to validate correct SCT and SRVT time on SRDO messages.
