Preface
This manual is a guide for using Compact GuardLogix controllers. It describes
the Compact GuardLogix-specific procedures you use to configure, operate, and
troubleshoot your controller.
Use this manual if you are responsible for designing, installing, programming, or
troubleshooting control systems that use Compact GuardLogix controllers.
You must have a basic understanding of electrical circuitry and familiarity with
relay logic. You must also be trained and experienced in the creation, operation,
and maintenance of safety systems.
For detailed information on related topics like programming your
Compact GuardLogix controller, SIL 3/PLe requirements, or information on
standard Logix components, see the list of Additional Resources
