Regulations and Standards
Conformance to EN ISO 13849-1 and IEC/EN 62061
EN ISO 13849-1 and IEC/EN 62061 require functional safety management to avoid systematic failure
during the software development. This is required in all phases of the life cycle of software program-
ming and software design (e.g., basic software design, safety circuit system design, and software up-
grades) in safety control systems to be developed using safety controllers.
Therefore, functional safety management is required for design and development of software for facili-
ties and equipment that use the function blocks provided in the Safety Controller.
The customer must implement measures to ensure compliance with these standards.
