2 Safety
2.1 Customer's responsibility
The control unit is used for commercial purposes. The operating
company is thus subject to the legal obligations concerning indus-
trial safety.
The safety, accident prevention and environmental protection regu-
lations applicable for the area of application of the machine must
be complied with, along with the safety notes specified in this
installation manual. The following applies in particular:
nThe customer must become familiar with the industrial safety
regulations and identify additional dangers which may arise
due to the specific working conditions at the place of use of the
control unit, by means of a risk analysis. These must be con-
verted into operating instructions for operation of the control
unit.
nThroughout the time of use of the control unit the customer
must check whether the operating instructions created by him
correspond to the current status of regulations and standards.
Whenever changes in regulations and standards occur, instruc-
tions must be adapted accordingly.
nThe customer must clearly specify the responsibilities for
installation, operation, maintenance, and cleaning.
nThe customer must make sure that all employees who have to
work with the control unit have read and understood these
operating instructions.
In addition, the customer must train and inform his personnel
about potential dangers at regular intervals.
Moreover, the customer is also responsible for keeping the control
unit in technically good condition, and therefore the following
applies:
nThe customer must make sure that the maintenance intervals
specified in these operating instructions are complied with.
nThe customer must regularly check all safety features for func-
tion and completeness.
nThe customer must supply his personnel with the necessary
protective equipment.

2.6 Specific dangers
The following section lists the residual risks.
nObserve the safety instructions listed here, and the warnings in
subsequent chapters of this installation manual, to reduce
health hazards and to avoid dangerous situations.
DANGER!
Danger to life caused by electric current!
Touching conductive parts causes a direct danger
to life. Damage to insulations or individual compo-
nents can cause danger to life.
nIn the event of damage to insulation, switch off the power
supply immediately and have the defective parts repaired.
nWork on the electric system must be carried out only by skilled
electricians.
nBefore maintenance, cleaning or repair work, switch off the
power supply and secure it against being switched on again.
nDo not bridge fuses or make them ineffective. When changing
fuses make sure you use the correct amperage.
nKeep moisture away from conductive parts. This can cause
short-circuits.
nDe-energize the machine for all work on the electrical system.
WARNING!
Risk of injury due to improper handling of bat-
teries!
Batteries must be handled with special care.
PA 8000 PAMIO
Safety
12.01.2017 | 15

nDo not throw batteries into fire or expose to high temperature.
Explosion hazard!
nDo not charge batteries. Explosion hazard!
nBattery fluid leaking due to wrong usage may cause skin irrita-
tion. Avoid contact with the battery fluid. In case of contact,
flush the battery fluid with large amounts of water. If the battery
fluid enters the eyes, flush immediately with water for 10 min.
and consult a physician without delay.
2.7 PAMIO safety devices
DANGER!
Malfunctioning safety devices may pose a fatal
risk!
Safety devices must be intact and properly inte-
grated into the control unit and the PAMIO compo-
nents configuration in order to guarantee safety.
nBefore initial commissioning of the machine, ensure that all
safety devices are fully functional and correctly installed.
nEnsure that safety related inputs/outputs of the PAMIO compo-
nents and the CNC control unit are fully functional and perform
as intended.
nNever disable safety devices.
nHeed regulations concerning hardwiring of safety circuits.

2.8 Machine Safety
The PAMIO module type 4ENC4A (and only this one) provides
specific safety connectors. The following instructions apply only
when these modules are part of the PAMIO components configura-
tion.
For information on the machine's safety devices
and emergency stop chain see the manual pro-
vided by the CNC machine's manufacturer. The
manufacturer of the CNC machine is responsible
for the proper installation of the emergency stop.
2.8.1 'CNC ready' signal - Emergency stop inter-
locking
DANGER!
Injuries due to uncontrolled operation!
An inactive 'CNC Ready' signal represents a safety
related situation. The "CNC Ready" relay is
switched off when the PA CNC control unit is in a
situation where the axes' movements are not con-
trolled.
As the axes may continue to move in an uncon-
trolled manner, the contacts of the "CNC Ready"
relay must be used to disconnect the machine's
emergency stop safety chain. All actions neces-
sary for safety must be executed in the same way
as when the Emergency Stop button is pushed.
nProperly integrate the 'CNC ready' relay into the machine's
emergency stop chain.
All safety related actions must ensure that at least all axes
movements and spindle rotation (or beam power) are stopped as
quickly as possible.
nRefer to the drive manufacturer manual, to determine the best
way of stopping movements and other dangerous power on the
machine.
nIf drive capability does not exist, the use of external braking
resistors might be necessary.
Unbalanced axes have to execute with the mechanical brake.
The contacts for 'CNC Ready' and 'Power OK' are available on
connector X19.

Personal Injury
PA 8000 PAMIO
Safety
12.01.2017 | 17

2.8.2 'Power ok' signal
The "Power ok" relay is triggered by the hardware monitoring of the
internal supply voltages and the temperature sensor.
The "Power ok" relay is switched off when the power supplies do
not match the allowed range or the internal temperature is too high.
nUse the contacts of the "Power ok" relay to switch off the main
power supply of the control unit to avoid any unexpected dam-
ages to the control unit.
The contacts for 'CNC Ready' and 'Power OK' are available on
connector X19.
–When an external 5V power supply (RMS) is
necessary to supply incremental measuring
systems, use the corresponding entry in the
control unit's drive configuration file
(DriveCfg.ini) to activate the monitoring of
the correct range of these 5 V.
When the monitoring is activated, an error on
this power supply will cause the "Power ok"
relay to drop.
2.8.3 Control Units and associated PAMIO 4ENC4A
DANGER!
Use all CNC Ready contacts!
When a Power Automation control unit is used in
association with PAMIO components of type
4ENC4A it is necessary to use both the CNC
Ready contacts of the control unit and those of
these PAMIO components in the Emergency Stop
Chain.
DANGER!
Use all Power OK contacts!
When a Power Automation control unit is used in
association with PAMIO components of type
4ENC4A it is necessary to use both the Power OK
contacts of the control unit and those of these
PAMIO components in the Emergency Stop Chain.

2.9 Conduct in a dangerous situation and in
case of accidents
nStay informed about locations of first aid equipment (first aid
kit, covers, etc.) and fire extinguishers at the site of installation.
nInstruct personnel about accident reporting, first aid and rescue
facilities at the site of installation.
nDisconnect power supply immediately.
nInitiate first aid measures.
nInform responsible persons at the site.
nCall for rescue service if applicable.
2.10 Environmental protection
CAUTION!
Environmental hazard caused by incorrect han-
dling!
Incorrect handling of environmentally hazardous
substances, especially incorrect waste disposal,
can cause considerable damage to the environ-
ment.
The following environmentally hazardous components or sub-
stances are contained in the control unit:
Electronic components are considered special waste. They must
be properly disposed of.
Power Automation will accept the control unit to properly dispose of
its components upon decommissioning.
nFollow the standard return procedure, as described in
