6.3 Top end cap with extended I/O M12× 5 female
connection
In addition to the end cap with the system connection, the C4000 Select may also utilize a
t
op end cap that has an extended I/O connection that is used for cascading additional
protective devices (e.g. another C4000 Select or SICK S300/S3000 safety laser scanner).
Connection of the safety-rated outputs associated with these additional cascaded devices
occurs at the C4000 Select receiver extended I/O connection. When an extended I/O end
cap is used on the top of the C4000 Select receiver unit, the integrated LED cannot be
used. If an integrated LED is required, specify a combined system and extended I/O
bottom end cap when ordering. Refer to section 6.2 “Bottom end cap with system
connection M12× 5 male and extended I/O connection M12× 5 female” on page 44 for
additional information.
Only PNP-type semiconductor-based safety outputs may be connected via the extended
I/O connection. Electro-mechanical devices (i.e. contact-based devices) are strictly prohibi-
ted from being connected to the extended I/O connection.
When cascading C4000 Select devices via the extended I/O connection, the sender unit
may also utilize an extended I/O connection for ease of wiring.
Electro-mechical devices are not to be connected to the safety inputs on the extended
I/O connection!
Extended I/O connections allow you to cascade additional devices to the C4000 Select.
When implementing such a system, you are only allowed to connect PNP-type semiconduc-
tor safety-rated devices to the safety inputs on the extended I/O connection. Electro-
mechanical devices (e.g. emergency stops, safety interlock switches, etc.) shall not be
connected to the safety inputs on the extended I/O connection!
