Functional check

After installation and any fault, the safety function must be fully checked. Proceed
as follows:

Warning!

Danger of fatal injury as a result of faults in installation and functional check.

Ì

Before carrying out the functional check, make sure that there are no per-
sons in the danger area.

Ì

Observe the valid accident prevention regulations.

1. Switch on operating voltage.

Ì

The safety switch carries out a self-test.
The green STATE LED flashes up to three times.
The STATE LED then lights up continuously.
The OUT and ERROR LEDs do not light up.

2. Close all safety guards.

Ì

The machine must not start automatically.

Ì

The green STATE LED and the yellow OUT LED light up continuously.

3. Enable operation in the control system.

4. Open the safety guard.

Ì

The machine must switch off and it must not be possible to start it as long as
the safety guard is open.

Ì

The green STATE LED lights up continuously; the OUT and ERROR LEDs do not
light up.

Repeat steps 2-4 for each safety guard.

Self-test with test input TST

On electromechanical safety switches or magnetic switches, the function test can
be performed by cyclically opening the safety guard. From Category 2 according
to EN ISO13849-1 and in accordance with EN 60204-1 : 1997 (sec. 9.4.2.4), a
function test must be performed on the entire safety system on start-up or after
defined intervals.

Testing of the internal function of the device is not necessary because the device
monitors itself in real time. Welding of an output contact (relay output) is detected
by the device at the latest the next time the safety guard is opened. A short circuit
in the output cable is not detected by the device.

In addition, the entire safety circuit can be tested without opening the safety guard.

For this purpose, opening of the safety guard can be simulated by applying DC
24 V to the test input TST.

The safety outputs are switched off, enabling testing of the complete safety circuit.
The diagnostic output ERR on the evaluation unit is also set HIGH as a monitoring
function.

When the test input TST is reset, the evaluation unit resets the diagnostic output
ERR to LOW, the red LED switches off and the safety outputs are switched on again.
This permits self-testing of the safety system without opening the safety guard.
