This chapter includes important overview information and precautions for using
Guard I/O modules that implement the DeviceNet safety protocol. Also
included is an overview of how these Guard I/O modules are used within a safety
system.
Before You Begin
Always observe the following guidelines when using a module, noting that in this
manual we use safety administrator to mean a person qualified, authorized, and
responsible to secure safety in the design, installation, operation, maintenance,
and disposal of the machine.
• Thoroughly read and understand this manual before installing and
operating the module.
• Keep this manual in a safe place where personnel can refer to it when
necessary.
• Use the module properly according to the installation environment,
performance, and functions of the machine.
• Verify that a safety administrator conducts a risk assessment on the
machine and determines module suitability before installation.
• Verify for CE LVD compliance, the external power supply that provides
power to the modules is safety extra-low voltage (SELV) rated. Some
Rockwell Automation Bulletin 1606 power supplies are SELV-compliant.
Verify this in the Bulletin 1606 Installation Instructions.
Verify that the Guard I/O firmware version is correct prior to commissioning the
safety system, noting that firmware information related to safety controllers is
available at http://www.rockwellautomation.com/products/certification/safety
.

Chapter 1About the Modules
Understand Suitability for
Use
Follow Precautions for Use
Rockwell Automation is not responsible for conformity with any standards,
codes, or regulations that apply to the combination of the products in your
application or use of the product.
Take all necessary steps to determine the suitability of the product for the
systems, machine, and equipment with which it is used.
Know and observe all prohibitions of use applicable to this product.
Never use the products for an application involving serious risk to life or property
without making sure that the system as a whole was designed to address the risks
and that the Rockwell Automation product is properly rated and installed for the
intended use within the overall equipment or system.
ATTENTION: Safety state of the inputs and outputs is defined as the
off state.
Safety state of the module and its data is defined as the off state.
Use the Guard I/O module only in applications where the off state is the
safety state.
Serious injury may occur due to breakdown of safety outputs. Do not
connect loads beyond the rated value to the safety outputs.
Serious injury may occur due to loss of required safety functions. Wire
the module properly so that supply voltages or voltages for loads do not
touch the safety outputs accidentally or inadvertently.
ATTENTION: Use DC supply satisfying the following requirements to
prevent electric shock:
• A DC power sup ply wi th dou ble or reinforced i nsulatio n, for examp le,
according to IEC/EN 60950 or EN 50178 or a transformer according to
IEC/EN 61558
• A DC supply satisfies requirement for class 2 circuits or limited
voltage/current circuit stated in UL 508
• Use an external power supply that is safety extra-low voltage (SELV)
rated
14Rockwell Automation Publication 1791DS-UM001J-EN-P - May 2013
About the ModulesChapter 1
ATTENTION: Follow these precautions for safe use.
• 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.
• Apply properly specified voltages to the module inputs. Applying
inappropriate voltages may cause the module to fail to perform it’s
specified function, which could lead to loss of safety functions or
damage to the module.
• Never use test outputs as safety outputs. Test outputs are not safety
outputs.
• Note that after installation of the module, a safety administrator
must confirm the installation and conduct trial operation and
maintenance.
• Do not disassemble, repair, or modify the module. This may result in
loss of safety functions.
• Use only appropriate components or devices complying with
relevant safety standards corresponding to the required safety
category and safety integrity level.
- Conformity to requirements of the safety category and safety
integrity level must be determined for the entire system.
- We recommend you consult a certification body regarding
assessment of conformity to the required safety integrity level or
safety category.
• Note that you must confirm compliance with the applicable
standards for the entire system.
• 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.
Rockwell Automation Publication 1791DS-UM001J-EN-P - May 201315
For 1791DS-IB4XOW4 modules, follow these instructions on isolating
transformer use. Refer to the isolating transformer figure.
• Use an isolating transformer to isolate between over-voltage category III
and II, such as TR1, to conform to IEC 60742.
• Be sure the insulation between first input and secondary output satisfies at
least basic insulation of over-voltage category III.
• Be sure one side of a secondary output of the isolating transformer is
grounded to prevent electric shock to personnel due to a short to ground
or short to the frame of the isolating transformer.
• Insert fuses, in case of a short to the frame, to protect the isolating
transformer and prevent electric shock to personnel, per transformer
specifications, at points such as F1, F2, and F3.

About the ModulesChapter 1
Precautions to Mount, Wire,
and Clean
Observe these precautions to prevent operation failure, malfunctions, or
undesirable effects on product performance.
Follow these precautions when mounting modules:
• Use DIN rail that is 35 mm (1.38 in.) wide to mount the module into the
control panel.
• Mount modules to DIN rail securely.
• Leave at least 50 mm (1.96 in.) above and below the module to allow
adequate ventilation and room for wiring for 1791DS-IB12, 1791DSIB8XOB8, and 1791DS-IB4XOW4 modules.
• Leave at least 15 mm (0.6 in.) around the module to allow adequate
ventilation and room for wiring for 1732DS-IB8, 1732DS-IB8XOBV4,
1791DS-IB8XOBV4, and 1791DS-IB16 modules.
Follow these precautions when wiring modules:
• Do not place communication lines and I/O lines in the same wiring duct
or track as high voltage lines.
• Wire correctly after confirming the signal names of all terminals.
• Do not remove the shield from a module before wiring, but always remove
the shield after completing wiring to be sure of proper heat dispersion for
1791DS-IB12, 1791DS-IB8XOB8, and 1791DS-IB4XOW4 modules.
• Follow torquing specifications as indicated in the installation instructions.
I/O Module Overview
When cleaning modules, do not use the following:
• Thinner
• Benzene
• Acetone
The Guard I/O modules implement the CIP-safety protocol extensions over
DeviceNet networks and provide various features for a safety system.
Use the modules to construct a safety-control network system that meets the
requirements up to Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL 3) as defined in IEC 61508,
Functional Safety of Electrical, Electronic, and Programmable Electronic Safetyrelated Systems, and the requirements for Safety Category 4 of the EN 954-1
standard, Safety of machinery - Safety related parts of control systems. All
1791DS modules can be mounted vertically or horizontally.
Remote I/O communication for safety I/O data are performed through safety
connections supporting CIP safety over a DeviceNet network. Data processing is
performed in the safety controller.
The status and fault diagnostics of Guard I/O modules are monitored by a safety
controller through a safety connection using a new or existing DeviceNet
network.
Rockwell Automation Publication 1791DS-UM001J-EN-P - May 201317

Safety I/O Modules
Read this chapter for information related to the safety functions of the modules.
Also included is a brief overview on international standards and directives that
you should be familiar with.
The following status is the safety state of the Guard I/O modules:
• Safety outputs: off
• Safety input data to network: off
Figure 10 - Safety Status
Rockwell Automation Publication 1791DS-UM001J-EN-P - May 201325
Chapter 2Understand the Operation of Safety Functions
The module is designed for use in applications where the safety state is the off
state.
Self-diagnostic Functions
Configuration Lock
I/O Status Data
Self-diagnostics are performed when the power is turned on and periodically
during operation. If a fatal internal module error occurs, the red module status
(MS) indicator is illuminated, and the safety outputs and input data and status to
the network turn off.
After configuration data has been downloaded and verified, the configuration
data within the module can be protected by using RSNetWorx for DeviceNet
software.
For GuardLogix systems, this status indicator is not used. Reference information
about safety signatures in the GuardLogix Controller Systems Safety Reference
Manual, publication 1756-RM093
Safety Reference Manual, publication 1756-RM099
In addition to I/O data, the module provides status data for monitoring the I/O
circuits. The status data includes the following data, which can be read by the
controllers. Note that 1 = ON/Normal and 0 = OFF/Fault/Alarm.
• Individual Point Input Status
• Combined Input Status
• Individual Point Output Status
• Combined Output Status
• Individual Test Output Status
• Individual Output Readback (actual ON/OFF state of the outputs)
or the GuardLogix 5570 Controller System
.
Status data indicates whether each safety input, safety output, or test output is
normal (normal status: ON, faulted status: OFF). For fatal errors,
communication connections may be broken, so the status data cannot be read.
Status bits are OFF in the GuardLogix 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 combinedsafety output status.
Safety Inputs
26Rockwell Automation Publication 1791DS-UM001J-EN-P - May 2013
Read this section for information about safety inputs and their associated test
outputs. A safety input may be used with test outputs. Safety inputs are used to

Dual-channel Mode and Discrepancy Time
To support redundant-channel safety devices, the consistency between signals on
two channels can be evaluated. Either equivalent or complementary can be
selected. This function monitors the time during which there is a discrepancy
between the two channels.
If the length of the discrepancy exceeds the configured discrepancy time
(0…65,530 ms in increments of 10 ms), the safety input data and the individualsafety input status turns off for both channels.
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.
Do not set the discrepancy time longer than necessary. The purpose of the
discrepancy time is to allow for normal differences between contact
switching when demands are placed on safety inputs. For this testing to
operate correctly, only a single demand on the safety input is expected
during the discrepancy time. If the discrepancy time is set too high, and
multiple demands occur during this time, then both safety input channels
will fault.
This table shows the relation between input terminal states and controller input
data and status.

Dual-channels, Equivalent
In Equivalent mode, both inputs of a pair should typically be in the same

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

In Complementary mode, the inputs of a pair should typically be in the opposite

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 evennumbered 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

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.
The safety input status turns on (fault cleared) after the input-error latch
time has elapsed and the I/O indicator (red) turns off. The input data can
now be controlled.
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.
Figure 17 - On-delay
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.

Chapter 2Understand the Operation of Safety Functions
Test Outputs Configured as
Muting Outputs
When test outputs are used as muting outputs, typically for a muting lamp, a
circuit test is used to diagnose whether the circuit and lamp are operational. The
muting circuit test is run every 3 seconds, regardless of whether the circuit is logic
HI or LO. This could cause your muting output to flicker during normal
operation when it is logic LO.
The muting circuit test must fail twice in succession when the muting circuit is
logically HI, before a fault is declared. The results of the muting circuit test do
not affect the muting status when the circuit is logically LO.
A muting circuit fault will cause the muting status bit to go LO.
A muting circuit fault is declared 3…6 seconds after the fault occurs if the muting
circuit is logically HI for at least 6 seconds, because of the 3-second test interval
and that the muting circuit test must fail twice in successession. If the muting
circuit is logically HI for less than 6 seconds during a machine cycle, then the
asynchronous test and program scans could cause the fault detection to be
delayed for several machine cycles.
There is a difference in the operation of the muting status between some of the
DeviceNet safety I/O modules. This table shows the operation of the muting
status of all modules.

EC Directives
These products conform to the EMC Directive and Low-voltage Directive. For
additional information, refer to the relevant installation instructions.
EMC Directive
Rockwell Automation devices that comply with EC directives also conform to
the related EMC standards so that they can more easily be built into other devices
or the overall machine. The actual products have been checked for conformity to
EMC standards. Whether they conform to the standards in the system used by
the customer, however, must be confirmed by the customer.
EMC-related performance of Rockwell Automation devices that comply with
EMC directive vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other
conditions of the equipment or control panel in which the Rockwell Automation
devices are installed. The customer must, therefore, perform the final check to
confirm that devices and the overall machine conform to EMC standards.
Compliance with EC Directives
DeviceNet products that comply with EC directives must be installed as follows:
• All Type IP20 DeviceNet units must be installed within control panels.
• Use reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power supplies
used for the communication power supply, internal- circuit power supply,
and the I/O power supplies.
• DeviceNet products that comply with EC directives also conform to the
Common Emission Standard (EN 50081-2). Radiated emission
characteristics (10-m regulations) may vary depending on the
configuration of the control panel used, other devices connected to the
control panel, wiring, and other conditions. You must confirm that the
overall machine or equipment complies with EC directives.

Considerations for Module
Installation
The communication baud rate of the entire network is determined by the
communication baud rate of the master unit. The communication baud rate does
not need to be set for each module.
ATTENTION: You can configure Test Outputs to be used as standard
outputs. You can connect actuators to Test Output points that are
expecting a Standard configuration.
ATTENTION: Test Output points configured as Pulse Test or Power
Supply become active whenever you apply input power to the module.
These configured functions are independent of the I/O connections to
the module.
ATT EN TI ON : If a module with Test Outputs configured as Pulse Test or Power
Supply is incorrectly installed in an application where actuators are connected
to these Test Output points, the actuators will be activated when network
power and input power are applied.
ATT EN TI ON : To prevent this possibility, use the following procedures:
• When installing a module, be sure that the module is correctly configured for
the application or in the out-of-box condition before applying input power.
• When replacing a module, be sure that the module is correctly configured for
the application or in the out-of-box condition before applying input power.
• Reset modules to their out-of-box condition when removing them from an
application.
• Be sure that all modules in replacement stock are in their out-of-box condition.

choose New Module.
The Select Module dialog box appears with a list that includes Safety.
2. Expand the Safety category, select the appropriate module, and click OK.

3. From the Module Properties dialog box, complete entries for the General
dialog box.
a. For Name, type a unique name.
b. For Node, choose the DeviceNet Node number, noting this number
and the switches on the actual modules must match.
c. For Description, if desired, type a description.
d. For Safety Network Number, use the default setting.
For a detailed explanation of the safety network number (SNN), see the
GuardLogix Controller Systems Safety Reference Manuals listed in the
Additional Resources on page 10
.
The purpose of the Safety Network Number (SNN) is to make sure
that every module in a system can be uniquely identified.
For example, assume there are two identical GuardLogix control
systems—System A and System B—that are connected to a common
Ethernet network. System A and System B have three DeviceNet
networks with assorted standard and safety I/O modules. In systems
like this, modules can have the same node number, but if each
DeviceNet network has a unique SNN, each node will not have the
same SNN and node number combination.
Another example of the usage of SNNs is when 1756-DNB modules
are in the same chassis and the DeviceNet cables are inadvertently
disconnected. If the cables are reattached incorrectly, the connection in
the safety modules are broken because each 1756-DNB module is now
connected to devices with different SNNs.
We suggest that all safety modules on a network have the same SNN, to
make documentation easier. During configuration, the Logix Designer
application defaults a safety device’s SNN to match the SNN of the
lowest safety node on the network.

IMPORTANT
TIP
3. In the Requested Packet Interval (RPI) box, enter the input connection
RPI to support your application (between 6 and 500 ms).
Selecting too small an RPI unnecessarily consumes network bandwidth;
selecting too large an RPI increases safety reaction time. Selecting the
appropriate RPI results in a system with optimized performance.
As an example, a safety input module with only ESTOP switches
connected to it generally may work well with settings of 50…100 ms.
An input module with a light curtain guarding a hazard may need the
fastest response that is possible.
Analyze each safety channel to determine what is appropriate. The
default Time-out Multiplier of 2 and Network Delay Multiplier of 200
will create an input-connection reaction time limit of four times the
RPI and an output-connection reaction time limit of three times the
RPI. Changes to these parameters should be approved by a safety
administrator.
We recommend keeping the Time-out Multiplier and Network
Delay Multiplier at their default values of 2 and 200.
A connection status tag exists for every connection.
When the connection reaction time limit and requested packet interval are set
appropriately, this status tag always remains LO. Monitor all connection status
bits to verify that they are not going HI intermittently due to timeouts.

Configuration Ownership - Reset Ownership
The connection between the owner and the Guard I/O module is based on the
following:
· Guard I/O DeviceNet node address
· Guard I/O safety network number
· GuardLogix slot number
· GuardLogix safety network number
· Path from GuardLogix controller to Guard I/O module
· Configuration signature
If any of these change, the connection between the GuardLogix controller and
the Guard I/O module is lost, and the yellow yield in the project tree appears.
Reset ownership to reestablish the connection by using this procedure.
1. From within the Logix Designer application, open the safety I/O module
properties.
2. Click the Safety tab.
3. Click Reset Ownership.
Configuration Signature
The configuration signature is created by the Logix Designer application and
verified by the safety module. The configuration signature provides SIL 3
integrity of the configuration of a Guard I/O module.
· When a GuardLogix controller first connects to an unconfigured
Guard I/O module, the complete configuration is downloaded to the I/O
module.
· Any time the GuardLogix controller attempts to connect to a Guard I/O
module, if the configuration signatures are the same, then the
configuration does not need to be downloaded, because they already
match.
· Any time the GuardLogix controller attempts to connect to a Guard I/O
module and the signatures do not match, the module checks the module
node address, electronic keying, and safety network number. If these are all
correct, the controller will attempt to configure the module.

Input are treated as a dual-channel pair. They must be in opposite
states within the discrepancy time or an error is generated.
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 go to the Safe State in the event of a ‘cycle inputs’ required condition,
but due to the 0 ms discrepancy time, a fault will not be 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 before the evaluated status of the
inputs can return to the Active state.

Before You Begin
This chapter provides information about how to configure Guard I/O modules
by using RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software and a SmartGuard controller. Refer
to the corresponding software help files for network-configurator operating
procedures.
This chapter covers how to configure a SmartGuard controller and Guard I/O
module by using Universal Serial Bus (USB) connectivity.
Be sure you have these required items:
• RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software, version 8.0 or later
• RSLinx software, version 2.51 or later
• SmartGuard USB driver
The SmartGuard USB driver should already be in your RSLinx software. If
it is not, load the driver onto your computer, noting the folder location as
you need to browse to it later.
• Personal computer with a Microsoft Windows 2000, MicrosoftWindows
2000 Terminal Server, or MicrosoftWindows XP operating system

Add Modules to the
I/O Configuration
Follow these steps to add modules to the I/O configuration.
1. In RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software, drag the appropriate hardware
onto the window to match your physical layout.
The devices have default names and node numbers when created.
2. Right-click a device and choose Properties.

3. From the General tab, change these values.
a. In the Name box, type a unique name.
b. In the Description box, type a description (optional).
c. In the Address box, enter the DeviceNet node number.
This DeviceNet node number and the switches on the actual module
must match.
4. Click the Safety tab.
On the Safety tab, you set the safety network number (SNN) and the
configuration signature.
Safety Network Number (SNN)
The purpose of the safety network number (SNN) is to make sure that every
module in a system can be uniquely identified.
For example, assume there are two identical GuardLogix control systems—
System A and System B—that are connected to a common Ethernet network.
System A and System B have three DeviceNet networks with assorted standard
and safety I/O modules. In systems like this, modules can have the same node
number, but if each DeviceNet network has a unique SNN, each node will not
have the same SNN and node number combination.
Another example of the usage of SNNs is when 1756-DNB modules are in the
same chassis and the DeviceNet cables are inadvertently disconnected. If the
cables are reattached incorrectly, the connection in the safety modules are broken
because each 1756-DNB module is now connected to devices with different
SNNs.
We suggest that all safety modules on a network have the same SNN, to make
documentation easier. During configuration, the Logix Designer application
Rockwell Automation Publication 1791DS-UM001J-EN-P - May 201383
Chapter 6Configure Modules in RSNetWorx for DeviceNet Software
software defaults a safety device’s SNN to match the SNN of the lowest safety
node on the network.
The safety connection between a controller and I/O module is based on many
items, one of which is the SNN of both devices. They do not have to match for a
safety connection to be established, but the connection will be broken if the SNN
of either device changes.
The safety network defaults to match the SNN of the lowest node on the
network. If your safety controller is the lowest node on the network, then all of
the safety I/O modules on the network will have the same SNN as the controller.
As this is the recommended method of configuring the SNN, you may not need
to do anything more with the SNN.
For a detailed explanation of the SNN, see the GuardLogix Controller Systems
Safety Reference Manuals listed in the Additional Resources on page 10

When configured as shown below, the I/O module configuration signature
must match the offline signature for a connection to be established.
Safety Module’s
Note that the configuration signature of the safety module
matches that of the SmartGuard controller, so the safety
The configuration signature is generated by the safety module each time the
configuration is changed. It consists of an ID of the module configuration and
the time and date the module configuration was created or changed. The
configuration signature provides SIL 3 integrity of the configuration of a Guard
I/O module.
The safety connection between a controller and I/O module is based on many
items, one of which can be the configuration signature of the safety I/O module.
If the configuration signature must match, the configuration signature must
remain the same once the safety connection is established or the connection will
be broken.

because it is handled on an individual basis.
Inputs are treated as a dual-channel pair. The channels must match within the
discrepancy time or an error is generated.
(1)
Inputs are treated as a dual-channel pair. They must be in opposite states within
the discrepancy time or an error is generated.
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 go to the safe state in the event of a ‘cycle inputs’ required condition.
But, due to the 0 ms discrepancy time, a fault will not be 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 cycles before the evaluated status of the inputs can return to
the active state.
