Chapter 3 CIP Safety I/O for the GuardLogix Control System
Two options for I/O module replacement are available on the Safety tab of the
Controller Properties dialog box in RSLogix 5000 software:
• Configure Only When No Safety Signature Exists
• Configure Always
Figure 7 - Safety I/O Replacement Options
Configure Only When No Safety Signature Exists
This setting instructs the GuardLogix controller to automatically configure a
safety module only when the safety task does not have a safety task signature, and
the replacement module is in an out-of-box condition, meaning that a safety
network number does not exist in the safety module.
If the safety task has a safety task signature, the GuardLogix controller only
automatically configures the replacement CIP Safety I/O module if the following
is true:
• The module already has the correct safety network number.
• The module electronic keying is correct.
• The node or IP address is correct.
