Notes on commissioning
The complete commissioning of the device by the machine manufacturer is described in
the documentation GDCE-EMCA-EC-... and in the Online Help for the EMCA plug-in of
the FCT software.
Recommendation for first commissioning without complete safety equipment:
– Set-up at least with emergency stop switching device and 2-channel shut-down via
the control ports STO 1 [X6.4] and STO 2 [X6.5]
– Implement the set-up in such a way that it must be forcibly removed when the final
protection wiring is carried out.
Note
Incorrect wiring or use of inappropriate components will result in failure of the STO
function or non-compliance with the requirements of EN ISO 138491 (category).
Prior to commissioning:
Make sure that components are used and wired in accordance with the required
category according to EN ISO 13849-1.
Check the electrical installation (connecting cable, pin allocation).
Validate the STO function to conclude the installation process and after every modi
fication to the installation.
Only use the STO function when all of the necessary safeguards have been set up
and are functional.
For a performance test of the STO function:
1. Switch off each channel individually and check the reaction of the motor and the acknowledgment
contact.
2. Switch off both channels and check the reactions.
