Testing the safety functions

General inform ation

Checking the safety functions of Vital 1 is normally easy to perform at a machine where V ital 1 is in operation. Do
not disconnect the VITAL 1 for testing. This should only take a few minutes. The normal check is performed by
using the safety devices connected to Vital 1 to verify that the safety functions are working properly. Proper
functionality is indicated by the LEDs on the f ront panel of Vital 1. Specifi cally, LEDs #2 and #4 (marked with red
circles in the pictures below) indi cate the status of the safety outputs.

Instructions

1 ) When power is supplied and all safety devices

connected to Vit al 1 are un-interrupted (i.e. the
safety circuit is closed), all five LEDs on the front
panel should be turned ON, as shown in the picture
below.

2 ) Interrupt any of the safety devices connected to the

Vital 1 unit. Both safety outputs should then be
deactivated. LEDs #2 and 4 indicate the status of
the safety output s and should now be turned OFF.
The state of the LEDs should be the same as either
of the two pictures below.

In this state, the machine/process is allowed to start. In this state, the machine/process is stopped by Vital 1.

If either LED #2 or LED #4 is sti ll turned ON when the safety circuit is interrupted, the safety outputs are not
functioning properly and the unit may not be put back into operation.
