� System Design and Programming

� Configuration

� Testing

-

2.6.1 System Design and Programming

In this step, the optimum safety system is determined by the following procedures:

1) Based on the required safety system specifications, select and arrange the safetydevices and determine the safety functions to be allocated to each device.

2) Configure the network system as a virtual network in the SICK DeviceNet SafetyConfigurator.

� Register all of the devices. If the system is a mixed safety control and standardcontrol system, register both the safety devices and standard devices.

� Set the parameters of all the devices.

� Check the percentage of the network bandwidth being used and review theparameters.

� Create the program for the UE4470 Safety Network Controller.

� Verify the system reaction time of all the safety chains.

The network bandwidth usage and the system reaction time are affected by severalfactors, including the network configuration, UE4470 Safety Network Controller andRemote I/O bus node parameter settings, and the UE4470 Safety Network Controllerprogram. It may be necessary to repeat the steps outlined above to determine a systemconfiguration that satisfies your requirements.

Basic Operation

3.4.2 Safety Network Numbers

The safety network number (i.e., the network address) is the number set for each networkdomain. All devices on the same network must have the same safety network number.

The safety network number is set as a unique node identifier (UNID) in combination withthe node address from SICK DeviceNet Safety Configurator and saved in the device. TheUNID is used to identify one device from all the network domains.

SICK DeviceNet Safety Configurator automatically creates the safety network numberbased on the time and date when a new network configuration file is created. Undernormal conditions, you do not have to consider this operation.

When the parameters are downloaded to the devices, the safety network number istransferred with the parameters as the UNID and is saved in the devices. Therefore, whenusing a device whose parameters have already been downloaded from another domain,you may need to reset the device. Set the reset type to Return to the out-of-boxconfiguration, and then emulate cycling power to perform a reset and clear the UNID.

Use the following procedure to set the safety network number.

1. Select Network - Property from the menu bar.

2. In the Network Number Field, select the Manual Option and enter the value.

IMPORTANT: Always allocate a unique safety network number when a network orsubnetwork is established. If the safety network number is not set correctly, a connectionmay be opened to a different device. A different safety network number must be set foreach network domain, and the same safety network number must be set for all the deviceson the same domain. You must allocate a unique safety network number for each safetynetwork or safety subnetwork.

3.4.3 Adding Devices

There are two ways to add a device to the virtual network.

1. Adding from the Hardware List.

2. Uploading the network configuration from the actual network.

4.2 Verifying the Network BandwidthApproximately 100% of the network bandwidth in the DeviceNet can be used. If the settingexceeds the acceptable bandwidth, however, timeouts will occur. This section describeshow to check the network bandwidth used for safety I/O communications in the designednetwork and how to calculate EPI from the usage rate of the set bandwidth.

4.2.1 Checking the Network Bandwidth Used with Safety I/O Communications

In the lower portion of the network window, SICK DeviceNet Safety Configurator displaysthe percentage of the network bandwidth used for safety I/O communications from theconnections set in the virtual network. The percentage of network bandwidth used isdisplayed for each baud rate.

Performing Only Safety I/O Communications

When performing safety I/O communications only, nearly 90% of the network bandwidthcan be used for safety I/O communication. When bandwidth exceeds 90%, obtain theaverage EPI by referring to the next section and use it as the reference for settingconnection parameters.

Performing Safety I/O Communications and Standard I/O Communications

When both safety I/O communications and standard I/O communications are mixed onone network, it is necessary to determine the network bandwidth that will be used for eachtype of communication. In this case, make sure that the network bandwidth used for safetyI/O communications does not exceed the determined value.

SICK DeviceNet Safety Configurator can calculate the average EPI when you specify thenetwork bandwidths that should be used for each type of communication. Once theaverage EPI has been calculated, set the EPI for each safety connection and thecommunications cycle of the Standard Master using this value.

The average EPIs for safety I/O communications and standard I/O communications arecalculated by entering the network bandwidth usage rate for each communication typeinto SICK DeviceNet Safety Configurator. Calculate the EPIs using the followingprocedures:

Safety Network Construction

1. Set the virtual network on SICK DeviceNet Safety Configurator as needed.

2. Click the EPI Calculation button in the lower portion of the Network Configurationwindow.

3. Input the network bandwidth used in safety I/O communications and the bandwidthused in standard I/O communications, and then click the Calculate button.

4. The average EPI of all the connections in the safety I/O communications and thecommunications cycle time in the standard I/O communications will be displayed foreach baud rate. Review the EPIs for safety I/O communications and thecommunications cycle time of the Standard Master referring to the baud rate that is tobe used.

IMPORTANT: Keep 10% or more space in the network bandwidth for establishing aconnection and for communications of SICK DeviceNet Safety Configurator. If yourapplication uses explicit message communications, additional network bandwidth isnecessary. In this case, decide the amount of network bandwidth that will be allowed forexplicit messaging. You must consider the amount of the data that will be transmitted andthe frequency of communication.

IMPORTANT: The total network bandwidth used in the safety connections and thestandard connections must be around 90% at the maximum, i.e., 10% or more availablebandwidth must be left for explicit message communications.

IMPORTANT: The calculation result is the average value of all the safety connections. Usethis value as a guideline. Adjust the EPI for the whole network by shortening the EPI forconnections that require a high-speed reaction time and lengthening the EPI forconnections that do not require high speed.

Safety Network Construction

IMPORTANT: Check that the displayed usage rate in the lower portion of the NetworkConfiguration window is the allocated value or less when adjusting the EPI of the wholenetwork based on the calculation results. Communications timeout might occur if thecalculated bandwidth is not properly allocated to the standard connections because thepriority of safety I/O communications is higher than that of standard I/O communications.

IMPORTANT: The EPI is expressed in 1ms increments. Certain devices require a specificminimum EPI setting and may also have specific increments (e.g. 5ms increments) for theEPI value specified. Make sure that the EPI you specify for each connection is valid for thetype of device that is utilized for that connection. Consult the operating instructions for thedevices specified for your connections to ensure that valid values are used.

IMPORTANT: You must perform user testing to ensure that the EPI values set in yourapplication allow the system to perform in accordance with the application requirements.

If you do not want to mix with standard I/O communications set the network bandwidthused for standard connections to 0.

4.2.2 EPI Calculation Example

The following network configuration is used for an example of calculating the EPI. The baudrate specified for the network is 500 Kbit/s.

In this example, the UE4470 series Safety Network Controller has input and outputconnections established to seven DeviceNet Safety Target devices (e.g. safety slaves). Thedefault set point values for EPI are used for all connections (e.g. 10 ms).

4.3 Calculating and Verifying the Maximum Response Time(i.e. Reaction Time)

The last step in designing the network is calculating the response time (i.e. reaction time)of safety chains. You must check that the response time of all the safety chains to ensurethat it meets the requirement specifications and applicable regulations.

4.3.1 Concept of Response Time (i.e. Reaction Time)

Response Time (i.e. reaction time) is the worst case stopping time among the runningdevices. This time reference considers faults and failures that could occur in therespective safety chain (e.g. sensor to controller to actuator). The safety distance iscalculated using the values calculated for response time.

The response time is calculated for each safety chain. The typical combinations of safetychains are as follows:

Local input - local output

Safety sen-sor/switch UE 4400 Actuator

Remote input - local output

Safety sen-sor/switch

Remote I/Onode Network UE 4400 Actuator

Local input - remote output

Safety sen-sor/switch UE 4400 Network Remote I/O

node Actuator

Remote input - remote output

Safety sen-sor/switch

Remote I/Onode Network UE 4400 Network Remote I/O

node Actuator

When a fault or failure occurs in a safety chain, the output will shut off within themaximum response time when calculated correctly.

4.3.2 Calculating the Maximum Response Time

The elements of the response time are given below for each safety chain.

4.3.3 Remote Input to Local Output Response Time Example

The following example outlines the response time calculation associated with a remoteinput to controller element to local output safety chain.

Response time (ms) = Switch response time + UE4450-03DC9F0 response time +Network response time + UE 4400 remote input/local output response time +Actuator response time

= Switch response time + ON/OFF delay time (UE4450-03DC9F0) + 15 (= Input responsetime of UE4450-03DC9F0) + 40 ms + 6 ms + 2.5 ms + Actuator response time

= Switch response time + ON/OFF delay time (UE4450-03DC9F0) + 63.5 ms +Actuator response time

4.3.6 Verifying the response time

Always confirm the response time calculated for each safety chain satisfies the requiredspecifications. If the response time exceeds your application requirements, consider thefollowing items and modify the design of the safety chain so that response time require-ments are satisfied.

� Shortening the EPI can reduce the network response time. This, however, will alsoreduce the network bandwidth that can be used for other connections.

� The cycle time of the UE 4400 is automatically calculated based on factors that includethe size of the logic application and the number of I/O connections. The cycle time canbe reduced by using separate UE 4400 controllers for safety chains that require high-speed response times.

IP67 Remote I/O Settings

You must ensure that the UE442x or UE445x is configured properly!

Several unintentional brief signal changes occur when opening or closing a componentfitted with contacts as the result of contact bounce. To minimize the influence of contactbounce in the evaluation by the UE 4400 IP67 bus node, you must set the input delay timelonger than the bounce time of the components fitted with contacts. Input delay isindependently configurable for each safety capable input.

Set the input delay to Inactive for immediate processing of safety relevant signals, e.g. theswitching output (OSSD) of a light grid/light curtain, When debouncing time is required(e.g. for electromechanical switches), set the input delay accordingly.

Input Slope Detection

Single-channel safety capable input applications may utilize slope detection. Slope detec-tion ensures that ”stuck at high” 24 V DC failures will not be read and transmitted as anactive value (e.g. ”1”) at the input. Input slope detection is used to test the input signal toverify that a short circuit to 24 V DC has not occurred.

Dual Channel Input Evaluation

Evaluates two safety inputs for specific input behavior.

Discrepancy Time

The discrepancy time is used to allow both input channels to reach a static state. Validdiscrepancy time values are: 0 to 30,000 ms. Discrepancy time monitoring is inactivewhen set to 0.

WARNING

Note

Tab. 32:UE442x/UE445x DualChannel Evaluation

Evaluation type DescriptionNC/NC: Only applicable for dual channel applications. Both safetycapable input signals must be equivalent.

Dual ChannelEquivalent

For active (e.g. logical 1):� A channel = 1� B channel = 1

For inactive (e.g. logical 0):� A channel = 0� B channel = 0

Only applicable for dual channel applications. Both safety capable inputsignals must be complementary.

For active (e.g. logical 1):� A channel = 1� B channel = 0

For inactive (e.g. logical 0):� A channel = 0� B channel = 1

Dual ChannelComplementary

Note: Ensure, that the NO contact is connected to the In A and the NCcontact is connected to In B. This ensures, that the bus node transmitsthe safe values during the non-actuated state.

IP67 Remote I/O Settings

The following examples outline the specific behavior of safety capable input signals withregard to discrepancy time:

• Safety capable input channel A goes from inactive (0) to active (1) state.Then safety capable input channel B must achieve active (1) state before thediscrepancy time expires. When this condition is satisfied, the dual-channel value forthe input pair will be active (1). If the discrepancy time expires before both channelsreach an active state, the dual-channel value for the input pair will be inactive(0 = failsafe state) and will remain in a failsafe state until both channels return toinactive. The converse is also true for safety capable input channel B.

• Safety capable input channel A goes from active (1) to inactive (0) state.The UE 4400 immediately reports the inactive state for the dual-channel evaluation tothe process image. Subsequently, safety capable input channel B must achieve aninactive (0) state before the discrepancy time expires. If the discrepancy time expiresbefore both channels reach an inactive state, the dual-channel value for the input pairwill be inactive (0 = failsafe state) and will remain in a failsafe state until both channelsreturn to inactive. The converse is also true for safety capable input channel B.

B-Channel Reporting

For safety inputs that are specified as dual channel, the A channel always reflects thedual channel evaluation value, rather than the A channel itself. When B channel reportingis enabled, the value of the B channel will also be published as part of the input assembly.Otherwise, the value is always zero (0) and only the A channel value should be used forsafety logic.

6.1.2 Specifying Test / Signal Outputs

The configuration of test / signal outputs is specified on both sides of the configurationwindow in the I/O Configuration tab.

To associate a test / signal output with a specific safety input; use the pull down selectionnext to the safety capable input element. Select the Test / Signal Output you wish toassociate with the Safety Input. Often, Safety Input 2A will correspond to Test / SignalOutput 2A, Safety Input 2B will correspond with Test / Signal Output 2B, etc.

For those test / signal outputs that are not associated with a specific safety input element,the following configuration elements may be used:

Icon Description

Power supply output – When utilized, this element provides a source for24 V DC power. Make sure that the output is utilizes as a power source only andnot for safety relevant control.

Single channel remote output – Test/signal outputs that utilize this elementmay be controlled via a remote device. Since this is a standard output only, itmay be controlled by either a standard DeviceNet master or a DeviceNet SafetyOriginator (Safety Master).

Control is implemented using an assembly allocation in which the test signaloutput values may be set. When implemented, only one device may be used tocontrol all test / signal outputs.

Remote output with muting lamp monitoring – Available for use with TestOutput 1A only, the muting lamp output is used to designate a test/signaloutput in which the current is monitored. This allows you to detect when amuting lamp is not operating properly by monitoring for current presence whenthe muting lamp should be illuminated (ON).

To configure the UE442x or UE445x Test / Signal Outputs using one of the elementsoutlined in the table above, select the appropriate element by left-clicking on the elementand dragging it next to the Test / Signal Output on the left side of the ConfigurationWindow. Green boxes indicate valid Test / Signal outputs that may be configured.

� Safety capable input connectors, test signal and signal output connectors and safetycapable output connectors that do not have any element associated with them areconsidered Not used. Make sure that all connectors that do not have a designatedconnection are configured as Not used.

� When an icon has been ”grayed out”, this indicates that no additional elements of thatelement type can be used due to insufficient device resources.

� Only Test / Signal Outputs configured as remote signal outputs allow for remote controlvia communication. Any other configuration prevents access by remotecommunication, regardless of information communicated to the UE442x / UE445x.

6.1.3 Specifying Safety Capable Outputs

The configuration of safety capable outputs is specified on the left side of the configurationwindow in the I/O Configuration tab. To configure the safety capable outputs, select thecorresponding element from the top menu bar by left-clicking on it and then dragging theelement to the corresponding safety capable output.

Icon Description

Remote safety capable bipolar output – This element may be utilized onconnectors 7 or 8 and is used to designate a dual channel safety capableoutput consisting of a P-switch and an N-switch. This allows you to remotelycontrol both sides of a solenoid or other type of safety actuator.

Test signal generation may be configured by double clicking on the elementafter it has been placed next to the corresponding output channel of theUE 442x or UE 445x.

Note: Remote safety capable bipolar output must be used in pairs (e.g. theP­switch output may not be used alone without the N-switch). The installationmust follow this configuration, too.

� Safety capable output connectors that do not have any element associated with themare considered Not used. Make sure that all connectors that do not have a designatedconnection are configured as Not used.

� When an icon has been ”grayed out”, this indicates that no additional elements of thatelement type can be used due to insufficient device resources.

� Only Safety Capable Outputs configured as remote safety capable bipolar outputs allowfor remote control via communication. Any other configuration (e.g. Not Used) preventsaccess by remote communication, regardless of information communicated to theUE442x / UE445x.

6.3.1 Media Access Code Identifier (MAC ID)

The Media Access Code Identifier (MAC ID) represents the node address of a DeviceNet orDeviceNet Safety device. Valid MAC ID values range from 0 to 63.

Since lower numbered nodes generally have higher priority, it is advisable to allocatesafety-rated components with the lowest MAC ID available. By DeviceNet definition, alldevices have MAC ID = 63 as the out of the box default. MAC ID values can be changed viathe rotary switches located on the UE 44xx IP67 bus node. If the switches are set to avalue greater than 63, the MAC ID is software configured via SICK DeviceNet SafetyConfigurator.

The Currently used MAC ID indicates the network address currently detected by theUE 44xx IP67 Remote I/O bus node as its MAC ID address.

6.3.2 Baud Rate

The UE 44x IP67 Remote I/O bus node supports the following baud rates/communicationspeeds:

� 125 kBit/second (default setting)

� 250 kBit/second

� 500 kBit/second

� Autobaud detection

Autobaud detection monitors the network for communication and determines whatnetwork communication rate is being utilized by other devices operating on the network.Once the network communication rate is determined, the UE 44xx IP67 Remote I/O busnode sets the baud rate / communications rate to match the existing networkscommunication rate.

6.3.3 Safety Network Number

The safety network number (SNN) uniquely identifies a sub­net across all sub­nets in thesafety network. The safety network number in conjunction with the MAC ID defines thetarget’s unique identifier (TUNID). The TUNID identifies the target in the Safety Openmessage and in the configuration mode messages.

The SNN may be set using the following:

Any changes to the SNN will result in changes to the TUNID. This will adversely affectestablished safety connections / communication on the network. To clear this errorcondition, devices may require reset of the TUNID information. Consult the operatinginstructions for the device for additional information on resetting a device.

Once the device has a valid, established TUNID, the safety network number is displayed asthe Currently used safety network number in hexadecimal.

6.3.4 DeviceNet Standard Assembly Allocation

Defines the data assembly that will be transmitted for a defined connection method viastandard DeviceNet communication. The following definitions apply:

Connection method Description

Polled A DeviceNet slave configured for polled I/O will receive”output” data from the master device in a sequential order thatis defined by the master's scan list. The master's polling rate isdetermined by the number of nodes in the scan list, theDeviceNet baud rate, the size of messages produced by themaster and each node in its scan list and the internal timing ofthe master device. For a given system configuration, thismessaging method will provide deterministic behavior. PolledI/O ”output” data can be single-cast or multi-cast.

Change of state A DeviceNet slave configured to produce a change of state(COS) message will produce data whenever the data changes,or at a base heartbeat rate. This adjustable heartbeat rateprovides a way for the consuming device to know that theproducer is still alive and active.

Cyclic A device configured to produce a cyclic I/O message willproduce its data at a precisely defined interval. This type of I/Omessaging allows you to configure the system to produce dataat a rate appropriate for the application. Depending on theapplication this can reduce the amount of traffic over thenetwork and more efficiently use the available bandwidth.

Strobe When a scanner module issues a strobe command to all theDeviceNet Slaves in its scan list, those devices that areconfigured for strobed messaging will respond with data. Alsoknown as bitstrobe.

Enter an input or output (I/O) assembly number in the corresponding field. Refer toUE4420, UE4450 and UE4455 DeviceNet Safety Bus Node operating instructions foradditional information.

6.4 SDL Configuration TabThe SDL Configuration tab allows you to determine how an SDL device will be handledduring the operation of the UE 445x IP67 Remote I/O bus node. When the bus node ispowered up, it checks the serial number, configuration date/time stamp and modeldesignation of the device attached to the SDL connector(s) to assure that the correct unitis attached to the bus node. In the event that a different unit or different configuration isdetected, the check boxes in this configuration screen allow you to define what will beallowed (e.g. as when occurs with replacing a device).

The SDL connection contains safe SICK enhanced function interface (EFI) device commu-nication, two inputs for OSSDs and the voltage supply for the connected sensor. The con-nections are suitable for e.g. the senders and receivers of SICK C 4000 series safety lightcurtains or of S 3000 series safety laser scanners.

SDL device information is available on the network for UE 445x IP67 Remote I/O busnodes. However only variant UE 4455 allows network controllers to write information viathe network to the SDL devices.

IP67 Remote I/O Settings

When configuring the SDL devices, UE 445x devices monitor the configuration parametersassociated with the connected device. The following parameters are monitored:

• Device type key

• Device serial number

• Device configuration date and time

If any difference in one of these parameters is found, the SDL I/O information is set tofailsafe values. This applies even if the SDL device itself reports green state (UE 4450).

For applications in which a replacement device might be necessary, you may choose toignore defined mismatches.

� By default you may replace a device using a different device type. If you select the checkbox Ignore type key mismatch, you may replace a device using a similar device withinone product family (e.g. a S 3000 Advanced with an S 3000 Professional). If the checkbox is not selected and a different device type designation (e.g. model number) isdetected, an error will be generated and failsafe values will be published.

� When the Ignore serial number mismatch check box is selected, you may replace adevice using the same type key (i.e. model designation), but with a different serialnumber. If the check box is not selected and a different device serial number isdetected, an error will be generated and failsafe values will be published.

� When the Ignore configuration date mismatch check box is selected, you may have adifferent configuration in the attached SDL device (e.g. S 3000 scanner) than what wasdownloaded to the UE445x IP67 Remote I/O bus node. If the check box is not selectedand a different configuration date is detected, an error will be generated and failsafevalues will be published.

� For applications in which the exact device type key, serial number and configuration dateare required, make sure that the corresponding checkboxes remain unchecked.

6.4.1 Read HW OSSD Information

You may also select whether or not the UE 44xx IP67 Remote I/O bus node will use thehardware output signal switching devices (OSSDs) of the connected device (e.g. C 4000safety light curtain or S 3000 safety scanner) or digital communication for safety-relevantdata. Each method of determining device status has advantages/disadvantages. Checkthe Values Determined tab of the connected SDL device to see what effects might berealized.

You may select whether the UE 445x bus node will use the hardware output signalswitching devices (OSSDs) of the connected device (e.g. C 4000 safety light curtain orS 3000 safety scanner) or use the signal from safe SICK device communication.

Each method of determining device status has advantages and disadvantages. Theprimary difference from an operational point of view, relates to the response time requiredfor the UE 44xx IP67 Remote I/O bus node to detect the current state of the connecteddevice and its OSSDs.

Tab. 38: DeviceNetSafety Open Types

Open Type Description

Configure the targetdevice

The DeviceNet Safety Target Device is configured when theconnection is established. The parameters that can be set arelimited to the parameters relevant to the safety application. Do notuse this open type under normal conditions.

Check the safetysignature

The UE4470 Safety Network Controller sends the safety signature ofthe DeviceNet Safety Target Device when the connection isestablished.

The safety signature is checked in the DeviceNet Safety TargetDevice that receives the connection request from the DeviceNetSafety Originator (e.g. UE4470 Safety Network Controller).

Specify this open type when establishing a connection with UE4421series IP20 Remote I/O Bus Nodes. This connection may also beused to establish communication with an UE4400 IP67 Remote I/OBus Node.

Open only

The UE4470 Safety Network Controller does not send the safetysignature of the DeviceNet Safety Target Device when a connectionis established.

The DeviceNet Safety Target Device establishes the connectionwithout checking the safety signature.

To use the Safety Slave function of the UE4470 Safety NetworkController, it is necessary to configure the DeviceNet Safety TargetDevice correctly from SICK DeviceNet Safety Configurator.

If it is not correctly configured, a connection will not be established,so there is no need to send the safety signature from the DeviceNetSafety Originator (i.e. Safety Master) for checking.

Use this connection type e.g. when the UE4470 Safety NetworkController is communicating with another UE4470 Safety NetworkController. This type may also be used to define communicationbetween a UE4470 Safety Network Controller and a UE4400 IP67Remote I/O Bus Node.
