Allocating Functional and Machine Safety Signals

The Functional and Machine Safety signals must be manually configured to meet the user’s safety needs. Because all user’s integration needs vary, this is not setup automatically before shipping. To map a functional safety function output to the input of another functional safety function, such as the output of a robot range limit to the speed limit function, the signals must be defined and then mapped through the Safety Logic Circuit. This must be done in SAFETY MODE (password: 16 - 5’s).
