Chapter 2 Safety Inputs, Safety Outputs and Safety Data
POINT Guard I/O Analog Input Module
The following are the safe states of the POINT Guard I/O analog input module:
• Safety input data to network in single-channel configuration: 0 (OFF)
• Safety input data to network in dual-channel equivalent configuration:
– If a diagnostic fault occurs, the signal for the faulted channel is set to 0
(OFF).
– If a dual-channel discrepancy fault occurs, the dual-channel inputs
continue to report actual input signals.
Safety Inputs (1734-IB8S)
Safety inputs are used to monitor safety input devices.
Using a Test Output with a Safety Input
A test output can be used in combination with a safety input for short circuit,
cross-channel, and open-circuit fault detection. Configure the test output as a
pulse test source and associate it to a specific safety input.
Figure 4 - Example Use of a POINT Guard I/O Input Module
The test output can also be configured as a power supply to source 24V DC
to an external device, for example, a light curtain.
