2. For Point Mode, choose one of these values for each point, referring to the
Safety Input Parameters table for additional information:
• Not Used - Safety input channel is disabled
• Safety Pulse Test - Safety input is configured for pulse test operation
• Safety - The safety input is used with a safety field device
• Standard - Safety input has a standard field device wired to it
3. Complete entries, noting the following:
• For each safety input on the module, you can define if the input will be
pulse tested. If the inputs is pulse tested, select which test source to use.
• Off -> On and On -> Off delay times can be configured per channel
with each channel specifically tuned to match the characteristics of the
field device for maximum performance.
• Input Error Latch Time is the time the module holds an error to make
sure the controller can detect it. This provides you more reliable
diagnostics and enhances the chances that a nuisance error is detected.
4. Click OK at the bottom of the dialog box or a tab at the top of the dialog
box.
