SmartPlug
T
he SmartPlug is the system memory plug of the safety controller.
When installed, the SmartPlug is located behind the front connector of the main mod‐
ule. The SmartPlug has a USB connection for connecting the safety controller to a
computer.
The safety controller can only be operated when a SmartPlug is plugged in. The front
connector with the SmartPlug must only be removed when there is no power to the sys‐
tem. The safety controller stops program execution immediately if the front connector
with the SmartPlug is removed.
