Chapter 5 Add, Configure, Monitor, and Replace CIP Safety I/O
Figure 17 - Safety I/O Module Replacement
Replacement with ‘Configure Only When No Safety Signature Exists’
Enabled
When a module is replaced, the configuration will be downloaded from the
safety controller if the DeviceID of the new module matches the original. The
DeviceID is a combination of the node/IP address and the Safety Network
Number (SNN) and is updated whenever the SNN is set.
If the project is configured as ‘Configure Only When No Safety Signature Exists’,
follow the appropriate steps in Table 1 6
to replace a POINT Guard I/O module
based on your scenario. Once you have completed the steps correctly, the
DeviceID will match the original, enabling the safety controller to download the
proper module configuration, and re-establish the safety connection.
