WARNING
LOSS OF CONTROL
l The designer of any control scheme must consider the

potential failure modes of control paths and, for certain
critical control functions, provide a means to achieve a safe
state during and after a path failure. Examples of critical
control functions are emergency stop and over travel stop,
power outage and restart.
l Separate or redundant control paths must be provided for
critical control functions.
l System control paths may include communication links.
Consideration must be given to the implications of
unanticipated transmission delays or failures of the link.
l Observe all accident prevention regulations and local safety
guidelines1.
l Each implementation of this equipment must be
individually and thoroughly tested for a proper operation
before being placed into service.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious

injury, or equipment damage.
1 For additional information, refer to NEMA ICS 1. (latest edition),
"Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation, and
Maintenance of Solid State Control" and to NEMA ICS 7.1 (latest
edition), "Safety Standards for Construction and Guide for
Selection, Installation and Operation of Adjustable-Speed Drive
Systems" or their equivalent governing your particular location.

WARNING
(cont.)
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
l Only use software approved by Schneider Electric for

use with this equipment.
l Update your application program every time you
change the physical hardware configuration.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,


User The products specified in this document have been tested

Responsibilities under actual service conditions. Of course, your specific
application requirements may be different from those assumed
for this and any related examples described herein. In that
case, you will have to adapt the information provided in this
and other related documents to your particular needs. To do
so, you will need to consult the specific product
documentation of the hardware and/or software components
that you may add or substitute for any examples specified in
this training documentation. Pay particular attention and
conform to all safety information, different electrical
requirements and normative standards that would apply to
your adaptation.
WARNING
l Only use software approved by Schneider Electric for

use with this equipment.
l Update your application program every time you
change the physical hardware configuration.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,

The use and application of the information contained herein
require expertise in the design and programming of
automated control systems. Only the user or integrator can be
aware of all the conditions and factors present during
installation and setup, operation, and maintenance of the
machine or process, and can therefore determine the
automation and associated equipment and the related safeties
and interlocks which can be effectively and properly used.
When selecting automation and control equipment, and any
other related equipment or software, for a particular
application, the user or integrator need to also consider any
applicable local, regional or national standards and/or
regulations.

User Some of the major software functions and/or hardware

Responsibili components used in the examples described in this training
ties (cont.) document cannot be substituted without significantly
compromising the performance of your application. Further, any
such substitutions or alterations may completely invalidate any
proposed architectures, descriptions, examples, instructions,
wiring diagrams and/or compatibilities between the various
hardware components and software functions specified herein
and in related documentation. You need to be aware of the
consequences of any modifications, additions or substitutions. A
residual risk, as defined by EN/ISO 12100-1, Article 5, will remain
if:
n it is necessary to modify the recommended logic and if the

added or modified components are not properly integrated in
the control circuit.
n you do not follow the required standards applicable to the
operation of the machine, or if the adjustments to and the
maintenance of the machine are not properly made (it is
necessary to strictly follow the prescribed machine maintenance
schedule).
n the devices connected to any safety outputs do not have
mechanically-linked contacts.
CAUTION
EQUIPMENT INCOMPATIBILITY
Read and thoroughly understand all device and software

documentation before attempting any component substitutions or
other changes related to the application examples provided in this
document.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or

equipment damage.

Start-up When applying this training and before using electrical control and
and Test automation equipment after design and installation, the application
and associated functional safety system needs to be subjected to a
start-up test by qualified personnel to verify correct operation of
the equipment. It is necessary that arrangements for such testing
be made and that enough time is allowed to perform complete and
satisfactory testing.
CAUTION
EQUIPMENT OPERATION HAZARD
l Verify that all installation and set up procedures have been

completed.
l Before operational tests are performed, remove all blocks or
other temporary holding means used for shipment from all
component devices.
l Remove tools, meters and debris from equipment.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or

equipment damage.
Verify that the completed system, including the functional safety
system, is free from all short circuits and grounds, except those
grounds installed according to local regulations. If high-potential
voltage testing is necessary, follow the recommendations in
equipment documentation to help prevent injury or equipment
damage.

Operation Regardless of the care exercised in the design and manufacture of

and equipment or in the selection and ratings of components, there are
Adjustments hazards that can be encountered if such equipment is improperly
installed and operated.
In some applications, such as packaging machinery, additional

operator protection such as point-of-operation guarding need to be
provided. This is necessary if the hands and other parts of the
body are free to enter pinch points or other hazardous areas where
serious injury can occur. Software products alone cannot protect
an operator from injury. For this reason, the software cannot be
substituted for or take the place of point-of-operation protection.
WARNING
UNGUARDED MACHINERY CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY
l Do not use this software and related automation equipment

on equipment which does not have point-of-operation
protection.
l Do not reach into machinery during operation.

Ensure that appropriate safeties and mechanical/electrical
interlocks related to point-of-operation protection have been
installed and are operational before placing the equipment into
service. All interlocks and safeties related to point-of-operation
protection need to be coordinated with the related automation
equipment and software programming.
Note: Coordination of safeties and mechanical/electrical

interlocks for point-of-operation protection is outside the scope
of the examples and implementations suggested in this training
documentation.
It is sometimes possible to adjust the equipment incorrectly and

may produce unsatisfactory or unprotected operation. Always use
the manufacturer instructions as a guide to functional adjustments.
Personnel who have access to these adjustments needs to be
familiar with the equipment manufacturer instructions and the
machinery used with the electrical equipment.
