2-2 Safety Precautions and Elements
ATTENTION
!
• Make sure interrupted processes can be properly
restarted after power failures or power dips. No
dangerous operating conditions must be allowed
to occur, even temporarily.
• In situations where faults occurring within the
automation system could cause personal injury or
significant damage to machinery and equipment,
take additional external safety measures to ensure
the system remains in a safe operating condition.
• Make sure unauthorized persons are not allowed
to adjust settings or make memory modifications
that could lead to dangerous situations.
• Test the functionality of safety-related parts
(E-stop and enabling switches) on a regular basis.
• If the MobileView terminal and controller do not
communicate using a point-to-point connection,
keypad data, for example, may transmit with a
delay. Use of an Ethernet switch between the
MobileView terminal and controller is
recommended for a higher speed connection.
• Test safety-relevant parts after strong shocks to
the terminal (for example, if terminal is dropped
on ground).
• When the MobileView terminal is used to operate
the machine/plant, ensure that the MobileView is
the single point of operation (C.F. ANSI/RAI
15.06).
• If you use a PC card with the MobileView, always
make sure the PC card is properly loaded. After a
strong impact, the PC card cover remains closed.
Verify the card is properly loaded to maintain a
good electrical contact.
• When the MobileView is used in manual mode
(for example, teaching of robot), ensure the robot
moves at a slower speed (C.F. ANSI/RAI 15.06).
