Configurable functions
4Configurable functions
Plan and carry out configuration carefully!
Incorrect configuration can lead to ineffectiveness of the safety function!
$The configuration of safety applications must be carried out with the greatest accuracy
and must match the status and the condition of the machine or system to be monitored.
Check whether the configured safety application monitors the machine or system as
planned and whether the safety of a configured application is ensured at all times. This
must be ensured in each operating mode and partial application. Document the result of
this check.
$Each safety application must be checked at a specific interval. The interval is to be
defined to suit the specific case dependant on the application.
$In each case, observe the instructions for commissioning and daily checking in the
operating instructions of the protective devices integrated into the safety application!
$Note the warnings and function descriptions of protective devices connected to the
safety controller! Contact the respective manufacturer of the protective device if in
doubt!
$Functions such as the restart interlock, PSDI etc. can be configured in both the
UE 440/470 and in a device connected via EFI. The UE 440/470 does not check
whether or not these functions were configured with the connected devices. You must
therefore check whether the configured safety application monitors the machine or
system as planned.
The configurable functions of the UE 440/470 are described in the following sections.
Examples for typical safety applications are found in Chapter 7 "Application and switching
examples" from Page 58 and on the Internet at www.sick.com.
4.1 Base settings with the configuration wizard
The functions which you can configure using the configuration wizard are described in this
section.
4.1.1 Configuration name
You can save a configuration name with max. 22 characters in the device. Use this
function as a reminder.

Configurable functions
4.1.2 Operating modes and operating mode selector switch
You can configure up to five operating modes for your safety application with the
UE 440/470. In each operating mode, you can configure different links between the
connected sensors and actuators and integrate the protective devices connected via EFI
into the application(s). This gives you the option of matching the application(s) to the
operating modes of the machine or system to be secured.
You can save a name for each operating mode during configuration in the CDS. Use this
function as a reminder, e.g. to describe the operating mode.
Check the protective device in every operating mode and after every change to an
operating mode!
If you configure several operating modes, you must especially check the operation of the
protective device in each of these operating modes. Please observe the test notes in the
operating instructions of the connected protective device.
Observe EN 963 when executing the BDC.
Up to two safety applications can be adapted and configured to the requirements of the
respective operating mode.
$Input and output elements are configured once for this and remain the same in each
operating mode.
$Logic module, release module and function module can be configured individually for
each operating mode.
$Connections between input and output elements and between logic module, release
module and function module can be configured individually for each operating mode.
A configured input element should generally be used in all operating modes and
connected to other elements for this reason. The CDS checks whether this is the case
when saving the application. If the CDS determines that an input element is not used in all
operating modes, you are notified of this and must confirm this explicitly.
If you do not wish to use a configured input element in one or more operating modes,
check whether this is permissible with the application!
Ensure that all connected elements are integrated in the safety application. This is
especially important when it is an element critical for safety (e.g. an emergency stop or
ESPE)!
$An electrical connection may only be made for operating modes that are in use.
$If the operating mode is switched with activated bypass (e.g. when switching from
operating mode 1 to operating mode 3) (see Section 4.2.9 "Bypass" on Page 30), bypass
is deactivated and the UE 440/470 switches to the new operating mode. If the bypass is
to be reactivated, the key-operated switch for bypass must be actuated again.
$If the operating mode is switched while teach-in via a Teach-in key-activated switch
connected to the UE 440/470 is active, the UE 440/470 first remains in the previous
operating mode (see Section 4.5 “Teach-in for C 4000" on Page 40). Only after the teach-
in is complete does the UE 440/470 switch to the selected operating mode and forward
the information on the new operating mode e.g. to the C 4000 Standard/Advanced, if
such forwarding is configured via EFI in the CDS.
This applies only if operating mode switching is configured simultaneously at the
UE 440/470 and at a protective device connected to EFI (for example S 3000 or
C 4000).

Configurable functions
Switching operating modes for devices connected via EFI
The status of the operating mode selector switch of the UE 440/470 can be transferred to
a protective device connected via EFI. The operating mode selector switch can be
configured so that operating mode switching of the EFI device …
$takes places simultaneously with operating mode switching of the UE 440/470.
$takes places independently of operating mode switching of the UE 440/470.
In the case of simultaneous operating mode switching the status of the operating mode
selector switch of the UE 440/470 is transferred to a EFI device. In this case, both the
UE 440/470 and the connected protective device switch to another operating mode when
switching occurs.
In the case of independent operating mode switching the status is transferred from local
inputs to an EFI device.
Operating mode switching of the UE 440/470 by means of the operating mode selector
switch corresponds to a switching of programs and always leads via a RED state of the
safety outputs at the UE 440/470.
$When transferring the status of an operating mode selector switch to a device connected
via EFI, the same number of operating modes must be configured there. Ensure that
when a C 4000 or S 3000 is connected, the same number of operating modes are
configured in both it and the UE 440/470.
$If the status of the operating mode selector switch is transferred via EFI to a safety laser
scanner S 3000, then there is a switching between the monitoring cases. The OSSD of
the S 3000 can remain switched on during this switch, depending on the protective field
status. The OSSDs of the safety controller are switched off, however.
$Only C4000 Receivers with the following type label entry are to be used: Software
Version 3.28 or higher.
Operating mode selector switch
The operator can switch between the operating modes by means of an operating mode
selector switch.
$When switching to another operating mode, the OSSDs of the safety controller are
switched off.
$After switching, the condition of the OSSDs depends on the configured application and
the input signals at their inputs.
Examples: With the internal restart interlock activated, the OSSDs remain switched off
and a reset is required. If an internal restart interlock was not configured, and if no
switch-off conditions (emergency stop, ESPE interrupted etc.) are active at the inputs, the
OSSDs switch on again after the switch to the new operating mode.
As soon as you configure several operating modes in the CDS, the operating mode selector
switch automatically appears in the pin assignment of the safety application. It has as
many inputs as configured operating modes.
The operating mode selector switch must be a (1-of-n) key-operated switch.
You configure whether the operating mode selector switch is actuated with or without
testing (see Section 4.6.2 "Testing of the connected input devices and sensors" on
Page 42).

Configurable functions
4.1.3 Automatic reconfiguration
The configuration of a protective device (e.g. C 4000) connected via EFI can be saved in
the safety controller. After exchanging a protective device (e.g. due to a defect), device
detection occurs, and the saved configuration is transferred to the protective device.
$For the safety controller to reconfigure a protective device, the type code of the new
device must match that of the original device.
$Commissioning (see Chapter 8 on Page 73) and full approval of the application (see
Chapter 8.2 on Page 76) must occur both after the replacement of a protective device
connected via EFI and after the replacement of the safety controller UE 440/470. After
replacement of a UE 440/470 with a new UE 440/470 with active automatic
reconfiguration, the configuration of a C 4000 connected via EFI may be overwritten by
the new UE 440/470 in certain circumstances. This is the case if the configuration
saved in the UE 440/470 contains the same type code as the connected C 4000.

4.2 Protective operation
To configure the functions described below, you must position a function module for
protective operation in the CDS. Two function modules are available for protective
operation:
$Standard function module
$Standard function module with machine cycle contact evaluation (UE 470)
The function module for protective operation can have the following inputs:
Input Effect
ESPE/Switch If an ESPE connected to this input or a switch connected to the
input switches off, the outputs Out1 and Out2 are switched off.
For information on evaluating the machine cycle contacts please
refer to Section 4.3.3 "Significance of the machine cycle contacts
for PSDI mode operation" on page 35 and Section 6.2.8
"Machine-cycle contacts" on page 52.
Logic If a logic module connected to this input supplies the link result
logical 0, the outputs Out1 and Out2 are switched off.
For information on evaluating the machine cycle contacts please
refer to Section 4.3.3 "Significance of the machine cycle contacts
for PSDI mode operation" on page 35 and Section 6.2.8
"Machine-cycle contacts" on page 52.
Bypass If a key-operated switch for bypass connected to this input is
actuated, the outputs Out1 and Out2 are forced high connected.
This is not the case if an emergency stop input device connected
to the Emergency stop input is actuated.
Emergency Stop If an emergency stop input device connected to this input is
actuated, the outputs Out1 and Out2 are switched off. The input
overrides all other input signals.
