Safety Application Requirements

POINT Guard I/O modules are certified for use in safety applications up to and including Performance Level e (PLe/Cat. 4) and Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL CL3) in which the de-energized state is the safe state. Safety application requirements include evaluating probability of failure rates (PFD and PFH), system reaction time settings, and functional verification tests that fulfill SIL 3 criteria.
Creating, recording, and verifying the safety signature is also a required part of the safety application development process. Safety signatures are created by the safety controller. The safety signature consists of an identification number, date, and time that uniquely identifies the safety portion of a project. This includes all safety logic, data, and safety I/O configuration.
For safety system requirements, including information on the safety network number (SNN), verifying the safety signature, functional verification test intervals, system reaction time, and PFD/PFH calculations, refer to the following publications.

Dual-channel Mode and Discrepancy Time

To support dual-channel safety devices, the consistency between signals on two channels can be evaluated. Either equivalent or complementary can be selected.
If the length of a discrepancy between the channels exceeds the configured discrepancy time (0…65,530 ms in increments of 10 ms), the safety input data and the individual-safety input status turn off for both channels. In Dual-channel Complimentary mode, the safety input data goes to off/on for input channels n/n+1 respectively as described in Ta b l e 3
The dual-channel function is used with two consecutive inputs that are paired together, starting at an even input number, such as inputs 0 and 1, 2 and 3, and so on.
If you are using the safety application instructions with a GuardLogix controller, set the module’s inputs to Single (default). Do not use the modules’ dual-channel mode as this functionality is provided by the safety application instructions.

Dual-channel, Equivalent

In Equivalent mode, both inputs of a pair should be in the same (equivalent) state. When a transition occurs in one channel of the pair prior to the transition of the second channel of the pair, a discrepancy occurs. If the second channel transitions to the appropriate state prior to the discrepancy time elapsing, the inputs are considered equivalent. If the second transition does not occur before the discrepancy time elapses, the channels will fault. In the fault state, the input and status for both channels are set low (OFF). When configured as an equivalent dual pair, the data bits for both channels will always be sent to the controller as equivalent, both high or both low.

Dual-channels, Complementary

In Complementary mode, the inputs of a pair should be in the opposite (complementary) state. When a transition occurs in one channel of the pair prior to the transition of the second channel of the pair, a discrepancy occurs. If the second channel transitions to the appropriate state prior to the discrepancy time elapsing, the inputs are considered complementary.
If the second transition does not occur before the discrepancy time elapses, the channels will fault. The fault state of complementary inputs is the even-numbered input turned off and the odd-numbered input turned ON. Note that if faulted, both channel status bits are set low. When configured as a complementary dual-channel pair, the data bits for both channels will always be sent to the controller in complementary, or opposite states.

Safety Input Fault Recovery

If an error is detected, the safety input data remains in the OFF state. Follow this procedure to activate the safety input data again.
1. Remove the cause of the error.
2. Place the safety input (or safety inputs) into the safe state.
3. Allow the input-error latch time to elapse.
After these steps are completed, the I/O indicator (red) turns off. The input data is now active.

Input Delays

On-delay—An input signal is treated as Logic 0 during the on-delay time (0…126 ms, in increments of 6 ms) after the input contact’s rising edge. The input turns on only if the input contact remains on after the on-delay time has elapsed. This helps prevent rapid changes of the input data due to contact bounce.

Off-delay—An input signal is treated as Logic 1 during the off-delay time (0…126 ms, in increments of 6 ms) after the input contact’s falling edge. The input turns off only if the input contact remains off after the off delay time has elapsed. This helps prevent rapid changes of the input data due to contact bounce.

EXAMPLE

Safety Analog Inputs (1734-IE4S)

Safety analog-input channels can be configured for current, voltage, or tachometer inputs, and for input type: single-channel or dual-channel equivalent.
If you are using the module with a GuardLogix controller, set the module’s inputs to Single (default). Do not use the modules’ dual-channel equivalent mode with the GuardLogix dual channel safety application instructions, as dual-channel functionality is provided by the GuardLogix instructions.

Input Range

You configure the module for the following voltage or current input ranges, or for tachometer inputs.
±10V
±5V
0…5V
0…10V
4…20 mA
0…20 mA
Tachometer (1…1000 Hz)
When ±10V and ±5V ranges are selected, you must make sure that a broken-wire condition is not a safety hazard. A broken wire causes the analog value to transition to 0, which is within the valid input range. Therefore, status bits will not indicate the broken-wire condition.

Scaling

The module converts input signals to the engineering units specified when you configure the module. You set the High Engineering value and the Low Engineering value to which the module scales the input signal before sending the data to the controller’s application program.
The module is configured as follows:
Input Range = 0…10V
Low Engineering value = 0
High Engineering value = 10,000
If the incoming signal is 1V, the data is 1000. If the incoming signal is 5.5V, the data is 5500.

The filter setting affects the module’s step response. See the technical specifications for the 1734-IE4S module, beginning on page 164
.
For the analog input modes, the input filter settings set the low-pass filter to filter out noise that may be present on the signal. In Tachometer mode, the input filter removes noise that may be present on the calculated frequency, effectively changing how rapidly the tachometer frequency changes to provide a value with less jitter.

Sensor Power Supply

You can configure the module to supply power to the connected sensors, or you can supply power to the sensors from an external power supply. To comply with UL restrictions, field power and connected devices must be powered by a single, Class 2-complaint power supply.
We recommend that you configure the module to supply power to the sensors because this lets the module detect if a sensor loses power, if the sensor is drawing too much power, or if there is a short in the power wiring to the sensor.
At powerup or after a reconfiguration, each sensor power supply is tested by being turned on for 500 ms.

Safety Inputs, Safety Outputs, and Safety Data Chapter 2
TIP
IMPORTANT
TIP
When a channel is configured for module sensor power, a sensor power diagnostic is executed on that channel at powerup to make sure that the sensors are not drawing over- or under-current and that channel-to-channel shorts are not present.
When a sensor power over-current condition occurs, it may take as much as 15 seconds longer than the configured latch time for channel status to recover after the over-current condition is cleared.
If you use an external power supply, you must monitor the system for the following:
The supply voltage must be within the sensors’ operating range.
The sensors’ current draw must not be over- or under-current, which could
indicate a problem with the components of the sensor.
Channel-to-channel shorts must be detected, if they occur.

Channel Offset

You can configure an offset when differences in the sensors nominal input signals would otherwise exceed the desired discrepancy deadband. Use the Channel Offset if you are using two sensors of different types to measure the same variable; that is, sensors from two different vendors that may not give exactly the same data value for a given temperature or pressure. Use the Channel Offset to bring the data values back together. You can also use the Channel Offset with two identical sensors that are physically offset from each other.
The channel offset is applied before the channel discrepancy is evaluated.
The Channel Offset is applied only during the evaluation of discrepancy between two channels configured for Dual Channel and is not applied to any of the Process Alarms. Therefore, if you are using two sensors to measure the same process variable, and these sensors read different values, you may need to set the Process Alarms to different values based on the sensor readings.

Process Alarms

Process alarms alert you when an analog input value has exceeded the configured high or low limits for each channel. Process alarms are set at four configurable trigger points.

You can configure a tolerance range, called a deadband, to work with process alarms. This deadband lets the process alarm status bit remain set, despite the alarm condition disappearing, as long as the data remains within the deadband of the process alarm.
If you are using the safety application instructions with a GuardLogix controller, do not use the module’s process alarms. Instead, perform analog range checking in your application logic.
Figure 13 - Alarms

Using a Single-channel Sensor

You must address the following requirements to meet SIL 3 with a single-channel sensor.
The module’s ±10V and ±5V analog input modes must not be used for SIL 3 with a single-channel sensor because 0V falls within the valid input range. Therefore, a stuck at ground fault cannot be detected.
In a single-channel sensor system, you must use other methods to make

Dual-channel Equivalent Mode

If you are using the module with a GuardLogix controller, set the module’s inputs to Single (default). Do not use the modules’ dual-channel mode as this functionality is provided by the GuardLogix safety application instructions.
The 1734-IE4S module supports Dual-channel Equivalent mode. In Dual-channel Equivalent mode, the values of both inputs of a pair must be within a configured tolerance range (discrepancy deadband). If the difference between the channel values exceeds the deadband for longer than the configured discrepancy time, a discrepancy fault is declared. When a dual-channel discrepancy fault occurs, the input status values for both channels are set low (off ) and the actual input values are reported. The fault is cleared when the difference between the channel’s values falls back within the discrepancy deadband tolerance range for the discrepancy time.
Figure 14
illustrates module operation in dual-channel equivalent mode. At A, the difference between the channel values exceeds the discrepancy deadband tolerance range and the discrepancy timer starts. When the timer expires at B, a dual-channel discrepancy fault occurs and the inputs status bits are set low. At C, the values fall back within the discrepancy deadband and the discrepancy timer starts again. When the timer expires at D, and the values are still within the discrepancy deadband, the fault is cleared. At E, the difference between the channels exceeds the discrepancy deadband and the discrepancy timer starts. A discrepancy fault occurs again at F, when the timer expires and the difference between the channel values remains greater than the discrepancy deadband.

Tachometer Mode

In Tachometer mode, the module measures digital pulses between 0 and 24V DC and converts them into a frequency or pulses per second. Therefore, you can use 24V DC proximity sensors or 5V DC encoders, for example. The Tachometer function does not sense direction, so using a differential encoder will not yield direction data. Tachometer mode could be used, for example, to measure rotational speed of an axis connected to a gear.
Tachometer mode can operate as SIL 2 single-channel. SIL 3 is achievable by using two sensors, the dual-low detection parameter, and user program logic. Safety reaction time is dependent on the signal frequency.
When using two sensors in a dual-channel configuration, position the sensors to make sure the low pulses occur at different times. If you have configured the module for dual low detection and both sensors are low at the same time, a fault will be declared.
Figure 15 - Sensor Pulses in Dual-channel Configuration
Signal Measurement
The edge-to-edge time of the pulse determines the frequency of the signal in pulses per second. The frequency range is 1 Hz…1 kHz.
In Tachometer mode, you define how the signal is measured, either on the falling (non-inverted) or rising (inverted) edge. For NPN-style sensors (sensor sinks), use falling edge. For PNP-style sensors (sensor sources), use rising edge.
36 Rockwell Automation Publication 1734-UM013J-EN-P - July 2014
Depending on your application, you may need to install an appropriately-sized pull-up resistor for falling-edge signal measurements or a pull-down resistor for rising-edge signal measurements.

Off and On Signal Levels
Safety Inputs, Safety Outputs, and Safety Data Chapter 2
You configure the Off and On levels, in 1V increments, for the signal. When selecting these levels, you should assume a tolerance of at least ±0.5V. For example, if you set the On Level to 10V, you can expect the module to recognize a signal between 9.5 and 10.5V as On. While the module’s accuracy when measuring the analog signal is very good, Tachometer mode emphasizes a wider voltage range and speed to be able to measure pulse widths accurately.
Also consider the variance of the voltage output from your sensor when making the On and Off Level settings. If possible, we recommend selecting On Levels that are 2V below and Off Levels that are 2V above the actual thresholds of your device’s expected output voltage level.
Determining Frequency in Pulses per Second
The edge-to-edge time of either the falling or rising edge of the pulse determines the frequency in pulses per second.
A single pulse, by itself, does not generate a non-zero frequency. To report a frequency of 1 Hz, two falling or rising edge pulses must be detected within 1 second. The module reports 0 Hz until 1 Hz is detected. For example, if a falling or rising edge is not detected for 1.02 seconds after the previous edge, the module reports 0 Hz.

Overfrequency Bit Operation
When the frequency exceeds 1 kHz, the module reports a data value of 1 kHz, sets the Overfrequency status bit to 0, and latches it. While the Overfrequency bit is set to 0, you must use an alternate method to monitor the frequency of the system because the value reported by the module is latched at 1 kHz. Once you have verified that the frequency is lower than 1 kHz, you may reset the Overfrequency condition by setting the Reset Tach bit, which lets the module begin measuring the frequency of field pulses again.
If you set the Reset Tach bit while the frequency is still above 1 kHz, the Tachometer Overfrequency bit transitions to 1 (within range) momentarily. However, as soon as the module begins measuring pulses, it will detect another overfrequency condition and immediately set the Tachometer Overfrequency bit to 0 again. The Reset Tach bit is edge-sensitive.
ATT EN TI ON : Before resetting the Overfrequency condition, you must use another method to verify that the actual frequency is lower than 1 kHz.
See Output Assemblies Overfrequency bit.
Figure 17 - Overfrequency Operation
In Figure 17, the module reports a frequency of 0 Hz until the frequency of the system reaches 1 Hz at A, when the module begins reporting the actual value. At B, the frequency exceeds 1 kHz, the Overfrequency bit is set to 0, and the module continues to report a data value of 1 kHz. Between B and C, you must monitor the frequency by an alternate method because the value reported by the module may not be accurate. After C, the Overfrequency condition can be cleared, provided you have used an alternate method to verify that the actual frequency is below 1 kHz.

Safety Outputs (1734-OB8S)

Read this section for information about safety outputs.

Safety Output with Test Pulse

When the safety output is on, the safety output can be configured to pulse test the safety output channel. By using this function, you can continuously test the safety output’s ability to remove power from the module’s output terminals. If an error is detected, the safety output data and individual safety output status turn off.
Figure 18 - Test Pulse in a Cycle
For the 1734-OB8S module, the pulse width (X) is typically 475 μs; the pulse period (Y) is typically 575 ms.
To prevent the test pulse from causing the connected device to malfunction, pay careful attention to the input response time of the output device.

Dual-channel Mode

When the data of both channels is in the on state, and neither channel has a fault, the outputs are turned on. The status is normal. If a fault is detected on one channel, the safety output data and individual safety output status turn off for both channels.
Figure 19 - Dual-channel Setting (not to scale)
Rockwell Automation Publication 1734-UM013J-EN-P - July 2014 39
Chapter 2 Safety Inputs, Safety Outputs, and Safety Data
IMPORTANT
TIP

Safety Output Fault Recovery

If a fault is detected, the safety outputs are switched off and remain in the off state. Follow this procedure to activate the safety output data again.
1. Remove the cause of the error.
2. Command the safety output (or safety outputs) into the safe state.
3. Allow the output-error latch time to elapse.
After these steps are completed, the I/O indicator (red) turns off. The output data can now be controlled.
Stuck high faults require a module power reset to clear the error.

Muting Lamp Operation (1734-IB8S)

Beginning with firmware revision 1.002, the operation of the muting status bits for the test outputs T1 and T3 has changed. Test outputs T1 and T3 are controlled by your PLC processor program to illuminate a muting lamp. Muting lamp status is monitored with a test that runs periodically during every test interval to detect a burned-out lamp. The test runs repeatedly when the test output is commanded on. The figure below explains how muting lamp operation, status, and fault detection are monitored.
The lamp test interval is 3 seconds. Two consecutive failed lamp tests are required to declare a burned-out lamp condition. The lamp test may not run immediately after the test output is energized. It starts at the next 3-second interval. To allow time for two consecutive test intervals, program a minimum Test Output On Time of 6 seconds.
40 Rockwell Automation Publication 1734-UM013J-EN-P - July 2014
Figure 20 - Muting Lamp Timing Diagram
IMPORTANT
Safety Inputs, Safety Outputs, and Safety Data Chapter 2
Ta b l e 4 shows the expected behavior of the muting status for test outputs T1 and
T3. Keep these points in mind as well:
When power is applied to the 1734-IB8S module, and T1 or T3 remains commanded off, the muting status defaults to on.
This bit operation is designed to help prevent erroneous muting instruction faults from the GuardLogix controller. This bit status may not be the true indication of a burned-out lamp.
Before checking the state of the corresponding muting status, be sure the test output is commanded on. Once the test output is commanded on, a maximum time of 6 seconds is required for the module to detect a burned-out lamp.
Rockwell Automation Publication 1734-UM013J-EN-P - July 2014 41
Chapter 2 Safety Inputs, Safety Outputs, and Safety Data
If a muting lamp circuit is open when power is applied to the module, the condition is detected when the test output is commanded on.
When a lamp burns out and is replaced, the fault (muting status bit) returns to the normal condition, independent of the state of the test output.

Status Bit
Description
In addition to I/O data, the module provides status data for monitoring the I/O circuits. The status includes diagnostic data that can be read by the controllers with 1 = ON/Normal and 0 = OFF/Fault/Alarm.

Digital I/O Status Data

The following data is monitored:
Individual Point Input Status
Combined Input Status
Individual Point Output Status
Combined Output Status
Individual Test Output Status
Individual Output Monitor (actual ON/OFF state of the outputs)
Individual Point status indicates whether each safety input, safety output, or test output is normal (normal: ON, faulted: OFF). For fatal errors, communication connections may be broken, so the status data cannot be read. Status bits are OFF in the controller data table when the connection is lost.
Combined status is provided by an AND of the status of all safety inputs or all safety outputs. When all inputs or outputs are normal, the respective combined status is ON. When one or more of them has an error, the respective combined status is OFF. This is known as the combined safety input status or combined safety output status.
42 Rockwell Automation Publication 1734-UM013J-EN-P - July 2014
Safety Inputs, Safety Outputs, and Safety Data Chapter 2

Analog I/O Status Data

Individual input status indicates whether each analog input point is normal (ON) or faulted (OFF). In addition, the following diagnostic data is monitored:
User 24V Supply Overrange or Underrange
Sensor Power Overcurrent or Undercurrent
Channel Signal Overrange or Underrange
Broken Wire Detected (4…20 mA current mode)
Single-channel Discrepancy Error (channel fault)
In SIL 2 or SIL 3 operation, a single-channel discrepancy error occurs when both measurements (internal to the module) of the same input signal are not within tolerance. If a single-channel discrepancy occurs, indicating a problem with the module, input status is set to zero and a zero input value is reported for that channel.

Choosing a Power Supply

The POINTBus™ backplane includes a 5V communication bus and field power bus that get their power from a communication adapter or expansion power supplies. All POINT I/O modules are powered from the POINTBus backplane by either the adapter or expansion power supply. POINT I/O adapters have built-in power supplies. Use the information and examples in this chapter to determine if you need an expansion power supply in your system.
ATTENTION: To comply with the CE Low Voltage Directive (LVD), this equipment and all connected I/O must be powered from a safety extra-low voltage (SELV) or protected extra-low voltage (PELV) compliant source.
To comply with UL restrictions, field power and connected devices must be powered from a single Class 2-compliant power supply.
The following Rockwell Automation 1606 power supplies are SELV- and PELV-compliant, and they meet the isolation and output hold-off time requirements of the SmartGuard 600 controller:
1606-XLP30E
1606-XLP50E
1606-XLP50EZ
Follow the safety precautions listed in Chapter 1 described in Chapter 4

IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT
Choose from these power supplies for the POINTBus backplane and field power:
Use the 1734-EP24DC expansion power supply to provide an additional 10 A of 24V DC field power and provide an additional 1.3 A of 5V current to the I/O modules to the right of the power supply.
Use the 1734-FPD field power distributor to provide an additional 10 A of 24V DC field power, and to pass through all POINT I/O backplane signals including the 5V bus supplied to the left, without providing additional POINTBus backplane power. This lets you isolate field power segments.
Use the 1734-EPAC expansion power supply (for standard I/O modules) to provide an additional 10 A of 120/240V AC field power and provide an additional 1.3 A of 5V current to the I/O modules to the right of the power supply.
If you use the 1734-EPAC expansion power supply to the left of the POINT Guard I/O modules, you must use a 1734-FPD field power distributor or 1734-EP24DC expansion power supply to isolate POINT Guard I/O field power from the AC field supply.
Establishing and maintaining communication (connection) between the module and the controller requires 5V POINTBus power.

Power Supply Examples

These examples are for illustrative purposes only, to help you understand various power sourcing concepts.
You must define the requirements for segmenting field and bus power in your application.
POINT Guard I/O does not require separate field-bus power usage, that is, separate power supplies for the 1734-IB8S, 1734-OB8S, or 1734-IE4S modules. This is optional.
POINT Guard I/O does not require separate POINTBus (communication) power-supply usage, separating it from any other POINT I/O modules, except when additional POINTBus power is required.
Do not apply AC voltage to POINT Guard I/O modules.

Wire Modules

Follow these guidelines when wiring the modules.
Do not route communication, input, or output wiring with conduit
containing high voltage. Refer to the Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, publication 1770-4.1
Wire correctly after confirming the signal names of all terminals.
Use shielded cable for analog and tachometer inputs.
When using the sensor power supply on the 1734-IE4S module, do not
connect an external power supply to the sensor.
If you use the 1734-IE4S module's sensor power supply to power your
input devices, you are responsible for verifying that your application operates properly with the diagnostic features of this output.
Tighten screws for communication and I/O connectors correctly.
When using analog inputs, wire only to voltage or only to current inputs,
not both. Mixing input types may induce noise on the input measurements.
ATT EN TI ON : Wire the POINT Guard I/O modules properly so that 24V DC line does not touch the safety outputs accidentally or unintentionally.
Do not connect loads beyond the rated value to safety outputs. Wire conductors correctly and verify operation of the module before placing the
system into operation. Incorrect wiring may lead to loss of safety function. Do not apply DC voltages exceeding the rated voltages to the module. Do not connect a power source to the sensor power supply in the 1734-IE4S
module or you could blow an internal fuse, rendering the module inoperative. Disconnect the module from the power supply before wiring. Devices connected to
the module may operate unexpectedly if wiring is performed while power is supplied.
.
WARNING: If you connect or disconnect wiring while the field-side power is on, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations. Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
This equipment shall be used within its specified ratings defined by Rockwell Automation.
ATTENTION: This product is grounded through the DIN rail to chassis ground. Use zinc plated yellow-chromate steel DIN rail to assure proper grounding.

Safety Analog Input Wiring

The following sections contain important guidelines for wiring safety analog inputs and wiring examples for the 1734-IE4S module.
Guidelines for Wiring Safety Analog Inputs
Follow these guidelines when wiring your safety analog inputs.
For 8 terminal connections, either the 1734-TOP or 1734-TB terminal base can be used. For all 12 terminal connections, only the 1734-TOP3 base can be used. When using a 1734-TOP3 base, both of the COM terminals and both of the Sensor Power terminals for each channel are internally connected. The FE terminal connection shown on the diagrams represents a grounding lug on the panel or terminal connection to the DIN rail.
If the sensor has a digital output for use with Tachometer mode, it must be either a push-pull type output or have appropriate pull-up or pull-down resistors for NPN or PNP sensors The analog input module does not provide the low impedance of these pull-up or pull-down resistors.
See Figure 43
and Figure 44 on page 72 for examples.
You must verify the behavior of your 3-wire sensor to make sure that if it loses its ground connection, the signal is 0 (safe state) at the module input when the fault occurs.
To obtain SIL 3, Cat. 3 or Cat.4, you must make sure that the analog input signals cannot short together or that the two sensors are installed to provide signals that are offset from one another. When the module is configured as the source for sensor power, a short-circuit is detected at powerup (Cat. 2). However, when an external power supply is used, this fault must be detected by another means.

the discrepancy time or an error is generated.
When you choose Equivalent or Complementary, you must also assign a Discrepancy Time.
A discrepancy time setting of 0 ms means that the channels in a dual configuration can be discrepant for an infinite amount of time without a fault being declared.
For a discrepancy time setting of 0 ms, the evaluated status of the inputs still goes to the safe state due to a ‘cycle inputs’ required condition. However, with a 0 ms discrepancy time setting, a fault is not declared.
A ‘cycle inputs’ required condition occurs when one input terminal goes from its normal Active->Inactive->Active state while the other input terminal remains in its normal Active state. Even though no fault is declared, the inputs must be cycled through the safe state before the evaluated status of the inputs can return to the Active state. When in a ‘cycle inputs’ required condition, the logical state does not necessarily match the voltage at the terminals.
Configuring discrepancy time on safety I/O modules masks input discrepancies detected by the controller safety instructions. Status can be read by the controller to obtain this fault information.

TIP

Configure the Safety Analog Input Channel Operation

Follow this procedure to configure the safety analog input channels.
1. From the Module Properties dialog box, click the Safety Input
2. Assign the Operation Type.
Configuration tab.
Choose Description
Single Inputs are treated as single channels. Dual-channel safety inputs can be configured as two
individual, single channels. IMPORTANT: Use single-channel mode when you intend to use the GuardLogix safety
application instructions.
Equivalent Inputs are treated as a dual-channel equivalent pair. The channels must match within the
discrepancy time or an error is generated.
If you are using a Dual-channel Analog (DCA) safety instruction in your application program, you must configure the 1734-IE4S module for single-channel operation. Analog input pairs are then evaluated as pairs and compared to each other in the application logic.
3. If you chose Equivalent, you must also assign a Discrepancy Time, from 0…65,530 ms in 10 ms increments.
This is the amount of time the two channels can be different from each other (larger than the Deadband value) before a discrepancy error is declared. A discrepancy time setting of 0 ms means that the channels in a dual configuration can be discrepant for an infinite amount of time without a fault being declared, effectively eliminating the usefulness of dual channel mode.
4. Configure a Deadband for the paired safety analog inputs.
The deadband can be any value from 0…32767 (engineering units) in increments of 1. When the paired input values exceed the deadband tolerance for longer than the Discrepancy Time, a discrepancy fault occurs.
Configure a deadband value for applications that use two sensors to measure the same variable; otherwise, spurious trips may occur.
5. If desired, configure a Channel Offset for the paired safety analog inputs.
94 Rockwell Automation Publication 1734-UM013J-EN-P - July 2014
Configure the Module in a GuardLogix Controller System Chapter 5
The channel offset can be any value from -32768…32767 (engineering units) in increments of 1. Configure an offset when differences in the sensors nominal input signals would otherwise exceed the desired deadband. The channel offset is applied from the second to the first member of the channel pair, that is, from channel 1 to channel 0 or from channel 3 to channel 2.
6. In the Input Error Latch Time field, enter the time the module holds an error to make sure the controller can detect it (0…65,530 ms, in increments of 10 ms - default 1000 ms).
This setting provides more reliable diagnostics. The purpose for latching input errors is to make sure that intermittent faults that may exist only for a few milliseconds are latched long enough to be read by the controller. The amount of time to latch the errors should be based on the RPI, the safety task watchdog, and other application-specific variables.
7. Click Apply.

Configure the Safety Analog Inputs

Follow these steps to configure the analog input points.
1. From the Module Properties dialog box, click the Input Configuration tab.
2. Assign the Point Mode.
Choose Description
Not Used The input is disabled.
Safety Safety-related analog input value
Standard Standard analog input value, not being used for a safety function
When you click Apply, channel 1 is set to the same value as channel 0 and channel 3 is set to the same value as channel 2 if the channel operation is configured as dual-channel equivalent.
3. Configure the module for current, voltage, or tachometer inputs.

4. Configure an input filter.
5. Assign High and Low Engineering scaling values for the inputs, if desired.
A single-pole, anti-aliasing filter of 10Hz is followed by a four-pole digital filter. Choose from the following available corner frequencies.
1 Hz (recommended for Tachometer mode)
5 Hz
10 Hz
50 Hz
For more information on the filter frequencies and step response, see the technical specifications for the 1734-IE4S module, beginning on page 164 or Digital Input Filter
on page 32.
The valid range for both the High and Low Engineering settings is
-30000…30000, in increments of 1. Scaling lets the module report in engineering units such as degrees, PSI, CFM, percent, and so on, rather than in raw counts.
When you click Apply, channel 1 is set to the same value as channel 0 and channel 3 is set to the same value as channel 2 if the channel operation is configured as dual channel equivalent.
6. Set the Sensor Power Supply value to External or Module to indicate how each sensor will be powered.
Set this value to Module to supply power to the sensors connected to the POINT Guard Analog Input module. This allows the module to detect a loss of sensor power.

Configure Safety Analog Input Alarms (optional)

If you are using a Dual-channel Analog (DCA) safety instruction in your application program, we recommend that you do not configure these values on the module. Instead, to facilitate troubleshooting, use the application program to check for high and low alarm values via the Dual Channel Analog Input instruction or other data comparison instructions.
96 Rockwell Automation Publication 1734-UM013J-EN-P - July 2014
Configure the Module in a GuardLogix Controller System Chapter 5
Follow these steps to configure alarms for each of the safety analog input channels.
1. From the Module Properties dialog box, click the Alarm tab.
2. To configure each channel, click 0, 1, 2, or 3, as appropriate.
3. To enable the alarm, check the boxes:
Enable High High - Low Low Alarms
Enable High - Low Alarms
4. Type the alarm values from -32768…32767 in the appropriate fields,
following these guidelines:
The High High alarm value must be greater than or equal to the High alarm value.
The High alarm value must be greater that the Low alarm value.
The Low Low alarm value must be less than or equal to the Low alarm
value.
These values are based on the Engineering units configured on page 96
5. Configure a deadband value for the High High - Low Low alarms and
High - Low alarms, if desired.
The valid range is 0…32767. The deadband lets the alarm status bit remain set, despite the alarm condition disappearing, as long as the input data remains within the deadband of the alarm. These values are based on the Engineering units configured on page 96

Chapter 5 Configure the Module in a GuardLogix Controller System

Configure Tachometer Operation

You can only configure the module for tachometer operation if your Module Definition includes Output Data for Safety-Tachometer.
Follow these steps to define how the module operates in Tachometer mode.
1. From the Module Properties dialog box, click the Tachometer Configuration tab.
2. Turn Dual Low Detection ON or OFF for each channel pair.
To increase the diagnostic coverage of your speed sensing loop, you need to determine whether the two tachometer sensors you are using to sense speed are shorted together. That is, you need to be able to detect a channel-to-channel fault. One method is to implement two tachometer sensors so that, during normal operation, their pulse trains are never low at the same time. When Dual Low Detection is ON, the module detects this condition as a fault, indicating that the two sensors are shorted together.
To use this feature, you must use Channels 0 and 1 together, and Channels 2 and 3 together. Channels 0 and 1 have the same setting and channels 2 and 3 have the same setting.
98 Rockwell Automation Publication 1734-UM013J-EN-P - July 2014
Configure the Module in a GuardLogix Controller System Chapter 5
3. Configure the Trigger to indicate if the module channels should count pulses on the rising edge or falling edge.
When the module is configured as Dual, channels 0 and 1 have the same setting and channels 2 and 3 have the same setting.
4. Specify a tachometer Off Level in volts for each channel.
This is the voltage at which the module considers the tachometer sensor to be OFF for tachometer speed calculation purposes.
The valid range is 0…23V in increments of 1V. The default setting of 5V should be satisfactory for a 0...24V DC signal. For a 0...5V DC signal a setting of 1V is recommended.
See Off and On Signal Levels
on page 37 for more information on the Off
and On Levels.
When the module is configured as Dual Channel Equivalent, channels 0 and 1 have the same setting and channels 2 and 3 have the same setting.
5. Specify a tachometer On Level in volts for each channel.
This is the voltage at which the module considers the tachometer sensor to be ON for tachometer speed calculation purposes
The valid range is 1…24V in increments of 1V. The default setting of 11V should be satisfactory for a 0...24V DC signal. For a 0...5V DC signal, a setting of 4V is recommended.
See Off and On Signal Levels
on page 37 for more information on the Off
and On Levels.
When the module is configured as dual-channel Equivalent, channels 0 and 1 have the same setting and channels 2 and 3 have the same setting. The tachometer On Level must be greater than the tachometer Off Level.
