S_OSSD_Out output

Output signal of the function block (enable signal).

Data type: SAFEBOOL

The enable signal is the safety-related acknowledge signal from the connected signal sensor for the process to be controlled. Its value depends on the status of the safety-related sensor and whether the sensor test was performed successfully within the applicable duration. The enable signal remains SAFETRUE during the ongoing sensor test, provided that no error occurs during the test.
The S_OSSD_Out output signal controls the request for the stop function.

Hinweis
As the enable signal is present at the S_OSSD_Out output, this output is also referred to as the enable output.

Connection: Connect the S_OSSD_Out output to an output terminal of your application, either directly or via other safety-related functions/function blocks.

The enable signal may only control the process directly if this does not adversely affect the safety-related function.

WARNUNG
Unintended machine operation
  • Verify that the enable signal only controls the process directly if this does not adversely affect the safety-related function.
  • Validate the overall safety-related function, including the start-up behavior of the process, and thoroughly test the application.

ValueDescription
SAFETRUENo stop function is requested (normal operation).
The following conditions must be met:
  • The function block has been activated (input Activate = TRUE)
  • and the light beam of the sensor has not been interrupted (S_OSSD_In = SAFETRUE)
  • and no start-up/restart inhibit is active (setting at S_StartReset/S_AutoReset)
  • and the function block has not detected an error.
SAFEFALSEThe process to be controlled is not enabled and the stop function is requested.

This may be due to one of the following reasons:

  • The function block is not activated (input Activate = FALSE)
  • or the light beam of the sensor has been interrupted (S_OSSD_In = SAFEFALSE)
  • or a start-up/restart inhibit is active (setting at S_StartReset/S_AutoReset)
  • or an error has been detected by the function block as a result of the time interval set at TestTime being exceeded during the test, for example.

The risk of unintended start-up/restart and/or manipulation can be reduced by combining a stop request from the safety-related application and an operation stop from the standard application.

WARNUNG
Unintended start-up
  • Make certain that appropriate procedures and measures (according to applicable sector standards) have been established to help avoid hazardous situations when starting up the Sicherheitssteuerung.
  • Make certain that no unintended start-up/restart or manipulation can occur.
  • Validate the overall safety-related function, including the start-up/restart behavior of the process, and thoroughly test the application.

Precise details of the behavior of the S_OSSD_Out output in relation to the start-up/restart inhibit are given in the following table:
