• The fieldbus connection can be established. (If a fieldbus is used.)
12. Have a computer available with a software to control and parameterise the AC drive and
the option boards, and to store test logs and parameters.
13. Have the Commissioning report available.
Document the deviations compared to expected results during the commissioning and testing procedures.
Do not release the system for use if any unacceptable deviations exist.
3.3 Digital output tests
Depending on the use of the configurable outputs of the option board, specific tests may be required for
the systems that monitor these outputs.
In general, the required test steps for the outputs used as SBC output or SSM output are included in the
STO + SBC and SSM parts of the test steps.
For other uses of the outputs, follow these guidelines:
1. The correct response of the system monitoring an output should be tested for each output.
2. Do a test of the response to a cable breakdown. In practice, this covers the situation where the
power to the option board is unexpectedly cut.
3. It may be possible to verify the correct configuration and operation of the outputs during the
safety function tests. If not, special test(s) should be planned to verify the correct configuration and
operation of the outputs and the systems that monitor them.
3.4 First start-up after the installation of the option board
NOTE! The information in this chapter is also included in the Advanced safety options Operating Guide.
After the option board is installed in the AC drive, do these steps.
Table 4: First start-up with the Advanced safety option board
The drive shows the fault F38 DeviceAdded (example: slot D,
subcode 1 if Advanced safety option is installed in slot D).
NOTE! The actual faults shown depend on the configuration
used during the previous start-up if other changes have also
been made.
If the option board was already installed and tested at the
factory, the fault is not shown.
NOTE! Other faults are also shown: the warning for Safe
Torque Off (F30, subcode: 1) and the fault for Safety System
(F20 SafetySystem, source: 82 - Plaus. check, fault number:
3). Fault F20 indicates that the option board has no valid
parameter file.
NOTE! At start-up, the option board also does diagnostic
self-tests. If other F20 SafetySystem faults are shown, see
