7.14.5 Cut-off paths
Overview
Y
ou can create cut-off paths and define the outputs switched by the cut-off paths.
You need a cut-off path for every field in a field set. If the field sets have different sizes,
use the field set with the most fields as a guide.
Cut-off path
Y
ou can enter a meaningful name for each shutdown path.
Outputs
Y
ou select the outputs that the cut-off path should switch:
•
Cut-off path in field bus: Number of the safety output via network
•
Reset: Restart behavior of the network output
7.14.6 Field sets
Field sets
T
he field sets that have been created are listed in the right Field sets area.
You use drag-and-drop to assign a field set to a monitoring case. The fields in a field set
are arranged in the monitoring case as they were drawn in the field editor.
You can cancel the assignment by dragging a field set from a monitoring case onto the
trash can symbol.
Defined cut-off behavior
In a
monitoring case, you can assign a defined cut-off behavior to a cut-off path
instead of a field:
•
Always OFF: If the monitoring case becomes active, the cut-off path is always in the
OFF state.
•
Always ON (NON-safe): If the monitoring case becomes active, a safety output in the
cut-off path is always in the OFF state. A non-safety output is always in the ON
state.
•
Always ON (safe): If the monitoring case becomes active, the cut-off path is in the ON
state.
If you have not assigned fields to certain cells in a monitoring case table, Safety
Designer automatically assigns the Always OFFfunction to these cells.
