5.4 Teach safe configuration
After you have transferred your configuration to the connected AS-Interface safety monitor,
you must then teach in the safe configuration. For this purpose, the code sequences of the safe
AS-Interface slaves to be monitored by the AS-Interface are read in. The code sequence of
each safe AS-Interface slave which is to be monitored is stored in the configuration log.
Before teaching-in the safe configuration, you must commission the AS-Interface bus including
all safe AS-Interface slaves which are to be monitored and, where possible, set all safe AS-In-
terface slaves which are to be monitored to the switched-on state (ON).
If, due to the system design, not all of the safe AS-Interface slaves which are to be monitored
can simultaneously be set to the switched-on state (ON) (e.g. for a wicket gate in a material air
lock in which a switch with safe AS-Interface slave is located at each of the end positions), te-
aching in of the code sequences is repeated in steps until the code sequences of all of the sla-
ves which are to be monitored have been read in correctly. To do this, set all of the safe
AS-Interface slaves which are to be monitored to the switched-on state (ON) in sequence.
To teach-in the code tables, select from the Monitor menu the Teach safe configuration…
command or confirm when prompted "Would you like to teach the code sequences?" with
the Yes button.
The code tables are then taught in by the AS-Interface safety monitor. The teaching-in process
takes several seconds. The progress is displayed in a window.
Note
Additional information on code sequences and secure AS-Interface transmission can be found
in the operating manual for the AS-Interface safety monitor.
