PIT m4SEU Fig.: Overview of the systems for safety-related operating mode selection The chapters that follow describe the system PITmode flex visu. There are separate docu- ments for the other systems. PITmode fusion, PITmode flex and PITmode flex visu are systems for the safety-related se- lection of modes of safe operation (MSO).
Page 8
To select and display the operating mode, the visualisation software PASvisu from Pilz is used on an appropriate display unit from Pilz or from any manufacturer. The "MSO flex visu" tile is used in a PASvisu project. – Safety controller to evaluate and activate the selected operating mode, e.g.
