It also lists contents of this manual and recommended reading and explains used
definitions, terms and abbreviations. The safety certificate is included at the end of
the chapter.
Chapter Safety information and considerations (page 31) contains general safety
considerations and information to be taken into account when applying the FSO
safety functions.
Chapter Overview (page 35) briefly describes the FSO module with safety system
components as well as the FSO layout, connections, type designation label and
operational characteristics.
Chapter Safety functions (page 53) describes how the safety functions of the FSO
module operate.
Chapter PROFIsafe (page 195) describes the safety system when the FSO module is
connected to a safety PLC through a fieldbus (FB) module using the PROFIsafe
profile of PROFINET. It describes the FSO module states and transitions and the
contents of the PROFIsafe messages. The chapter also includes installation
instructions, configuration instructions for the ABB AC500-S Safety PLC and
Siemens SIMATIC Fail-safe S7 PLC as well as fault tracing tips.
Chapter Planning for installation (page 287) gives instructions and references to
instructions in other manuals for planning the safety system installation, as well as the
requirements for installation in the applicable safety standards.
Chapter Installation (page 295) gives examples of how to connect the FSO module to
the ACS880/DCS880.
Chapter Installation checklists (page 305) contains a checklist for checking the
mechanical and electrical installation of the FSO module and refers to common cause
failure checklists in standards.
Chapter Configuration (page 307) describes the password usage, outlines the
configuration process and gives examples of how to configure the FSO module to
implement the safety functions described in chapter Safety functions.
Chapter Parameters (page 401) lists the FSO parameters.
Chapter Start-up (page 455) describes the general precautions to be taken before
starting up the safety system for the first time.
Chapter Verification and validation (page 457) describes verification and validation
procedures of the implemented safety functions.
Chapter Fault tracing (page 489) describes the status LEDs and provides generic
diagnostics, troubleshooting and fault recovery tips for FSO-related faults.
