SICK microScan3 Core I/O

To identify the different levels of the functionality, we use a 3-digit version number. The
v
ersion number is marked with the letter V on the device.
In order for a configuration to be transmitted from the Safety Designer to the device,
the functional scope of the configuration and the functional scope of the device must
match one another:
•
The 1st digit of both version numbers must be identical
•
The 2nd digit of the version numbers on the device must be at least as large as
that of the configuration in the Safety Designer
•
The 3rd digit is not relevant for compatibility
The functional scope of the device can be read at the following locations:
•
Label on the device
•
Display, entry in the menu Device information under Hardware
•
Safety Designer, Overview dialog box (only with connected devices)
•
Safety Designer, report

Functional scope of the device
If you configure a device offline, you must define the functional scope of the configura‐
t
ion when adding the device in the device selection wizard in the Safety Designer.
If you add a device to the project via the device search, the functionality of the device
will be carried over. If the device has already been configured, the functional scope of
the configuration is adopted in the device.

8.4 Reading configuration
At the left, you see the values configured in the project for the device. If the device is
c
onnected, you see the values saved in the device at the right.
If the values in the project and the values in the device differ, you can read the values
out from the device and adopt them in the project.
