7.3.5 Configuration release
Follow these instructions:
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage.
Can Cause Death, Serious Injury, or Property Damage.
Before the safety equipment is released for safety mode, you must ensure that all functions
work correctly in accordance with the safety regulations. This encompasses the I/O
connected to the MSS (sensors and actuators) as well as the entire configuration of the
MSS.
When the configuration is released, you can (as an "authorized person") confirm that the
system is correctly installed and that all the safety-relevant regulations and standards for
the application are observed.
Note
The release procedure described below refers only to the configuration of the MSS and not
to the system test. The system test must be documented separately and is not an integral
part of this documentation.
Once the function test has been successfully carried out, you can release the configuration.
To do so, proceed as follows:
Step Action Response
1 Select the menu command "Target system" > "Go
offline".
The offline configuration is opened.
2 Choose "Target system" > "Approve configuration". The "Approve configuration" dialog box is opened, thereby
confirming that the system has been configured properly.
3 Set the interface via which you have access to the
device (e.g. COM1) and confirm with "OK".
The "Approve configuration" dialog box opens.
3 Acknowledge the message text. The "Approve configuration" dialog box opens.
4 Enter the name and approving company and
confirm with "OK".
The "Approve configuration" dialog box opens. The
configuration has been successfully approved.
5 Acknowledge the message with "OK". The printout of the release information is created.
Note
If the report could not be printed when the project was released, e.g. no printer or software
(Adobe Reader), the printout must be created at the latest at the approval stage by selecting
"Options" > "Release information...".
