6 Maintenance 
Defective modules must be replaced with a faultless module of the same type or with an 
approved replacement model. 
Only the manufacturer is authorized to repair the module. 
When replacing modules, observe the instructions specified in the System Manual 
(HI 801 001 E) and Safety Manual (HI 801 003 E). 
6.1 Maintenance Measures 
The following measures are required for the processor module: 
  Loading the operating system, if a new version is required 
  Executing the proof test 
6.1.1  Loading the Operating System 
HIMA is continuously improving the operating system of the module. HIMA recommends to 
use system downtimes to load the current version of the operating system into the module. 
For detailed instructions on how to load the operating system, see the System Manual 
(HI 801 001 E) and the online help. For loading the operating system, the processor module 
must be in the OutOfRed state (displayed in SILworX). Otherwise, stop the system 
operation of the processor module.  
i 
The current version of the module in use is displayed in the SILworX Control Panel! The 
type label specifies the version when the module is delivered, see Chapter 
3.3. 
 
 
6.1.2 Proof Test 
HIMax modules must be subjected to a proof test in intervals of 10 years. For more 
information, refer to the Safety Manual HI 801 003 E.
