I/O Configuration General Information
I/O Configuration General Practices
Match Software and Hardware Configuration
The I/O that may be embedded in your controller is independent of the I/O that you may have
added in the form of I/O expansion. It is important that the logical I/O configuration within your
program matches the physical I/O configuration of your installation. If you add or remove any
physical I/O to or from the I/O expansion bus or, depending on the controller reference, to or from
the controller (in the form of cartridges), then you must update your application configuration. This
is also true for any field bus devices you may have in your installation. Otherwise, there is the
potential that the expansion bus or field bus no longer function while the embedded I/O that may
be present in your controller continues to operate.
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Update the configuration of your program each time you add or delete any type of I/O expansions
on your I/O bus, or you add or delete any devices on your field bus.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
Use the GetRightBusStatus function regularly to monitor the expansion bus status.
The Optional Feature for I/O Expansion Modules
I/O expansion modules can be marked as optional in the configuration. The Optional module
feature provides a more flexible configuration by the acceptance of the definition of modules that
are not physically attached to the controller. Therefore, a single application can support multiple
physical configurations of I/O expansion modules, allowing a greater degree of scalability without
the necessity of maintaining multiple application files for the same application.
You must be fully aware of the implications and impacts of marking I/O modules as optional in your
application, both when those modules are physically absent and present when running your
machine or process. Be sure to include this feature in your risk analysis.
WARNING
14
WARNING
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Include in your risk analysis each of the variations of I/O configurations that can be realized
marking I/O expansion modules as optional, and in particular the establishment of TM3 Safety
modules (TM3S…) as optional I/O modules, and make a determination whether it is acceptable
as it relates to your application.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
NOTE: For more details about this feature, refer to Optional I/O Expansion Modules

Configuring the Latch and Filter Parameters
The latch parameter allows incoming pulses with amplitude widths shorter than the controller scan
time to be captured and recorded. You can select the type of edge (rising, falling, both or none).
The filter parameter reduces the effect of bounce on a controller digital input.
NOTE: The more the filter value is low, the more the effects of electromagnetic interference are
maximized.
The following timing diagram illustrates the latching effects:
NOTE: You can configure these parameters on the following modules:

Optional I/O Expansion Modules
Presentation
I/O expansion modules can be marked as optional in the configuration. The Optional module
feature provides a more flexible configuration by the acceptance of the definition of modules that
are not physically attached to the controller. Therefore, a single application can support multiple
physical configurations of I/O expansion modules, allowing a greater degree of scalability without
the necessity of maintaining multiple application files for the same application.
Without the Optional module feature, when the controller starts up the I/O expansion bus (following
a power cycle, application download or initialization command), it compares the configuration
defined in the application with the physical I/O modules attached to the I/O bus. Among other
diagnostics made, if the controller determines that there are I/O modules defined in the
configuration that are not physically present on the I/O bus, an error is detected and the I/O bus
does not start.
With the Optional module feature, the controller ignores the absent I/O expansion modules that you
have marked as optional, which then allows the controller to start the I/O expansion bus.
The controller starts the I/O expansion bus at configuration time (following a power cycle,
application download, or initialization command) even if optional expansion modules are not
physically connected to the controller.
The following module types can be marked as optional:
NOTE: TM3 Transmitter/Receiver modules (the TM3XTRA1 and the TM3XREC1) and TMC4
cartridges cannot be marked as optional.
You must be fully aware of the implications and impacts of marking I/O modules as optional in your
application, both when those modules are physically absent and present when running your
machine or process. Be sure to include this feature in your risk analysis.
I/O Configuration General Information
WARNING
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Include in your risk analysis each of the variations of I/O configurations that can be realized
marking I/O expansion modules as optional, and in particular the establishment of TM3 Safety
modules (TM3S…) as optional I/O modules, and make a determination whether it is acceptable
as it relates to your application.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Shared Internal ID Codes
Controllers and bus couplers identify expansion modules by a simple internal ID code. This ID code
is not specific to each reference, but identifies the logical structure of the expansion module.
Therefore, different references can share the same ID code.
You cannot have two modules with the same internal ID code declared as optional without at least
one mandatory module placed between them.
This table groups the module references sharing the same internal ID code:

TM3 Safety Modules Configuration
Interlock
Description
In 2 channel operation, both inputs related to both channels must be seen open before a safety
cycle can be started and the output can be closed. This functionality ensures that the output circuit
cannot be activated if one of the input channels is not able to be open (for example in case of
contact malfunction or short circuit).
The interlock function checks if both K1 and K2 relays are open before the safety cycle. In case of
short power-supply interruption, one of the relays may be off while the other remains on. To allow
the operation of the module on power return, the power-supply interruption should be at least
100 ms in duration.
Power Cycle
The interlock condition is reset by a power cycle. Information about a possible malfunction
detected, provided by the interlock, is interrupted and not recovered before the next safety cycle.
Reset
The controller can request to reset the safety module by communicating with the safety module on
the TM3 Bus.
When the reset signal is active, both safety module internal relays are deactivated.
The reset signal can be used to reset the module after the activation of the interlock function.
NOTE: The reset signal overwrites an activated interlock function. Information about a possible
malfunction detected, provided by the interlock, is interrupted and not recovered before the next
safety cyle.
The interruption of the interlock function could lead to the degradation of the safety level of the
system. The reset of this function should only be done manually after verification of the intended
functionality.
94
WARNING
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Do not use the reset function to reset an interlock programmatically.
Always verify the interlock notification before using the reset function.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

This figure represents the events sequence for the two start modes available:
Events description:
1. Monitored start condition is triggered by a falling edge on the start input.
2. Non-monitored start condition is available as long as the start input is on.
3. The outputs get activated only if start + safety-related input conditions are valid.
NOTE: For a monitored start, the falling edge on the start input must appear within 20 seconds
(± 5 seconds) after activation of the start input at nominal supply voltage.
Both the safety conditions and the start conditions must be valid before allowing the activation of
outputs.

WARNING
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION

Manual Non-Monitored Start
The start condition is valid when the start input is closed (start switch is pressed).
This figure represents how to connect a switch on a TM3 safety module to configure a manual nonmonitored start:
Automatic Start
There is no start interlock when automatic start is used. After a power cycle, the output behavior
depends solely on the state of the inputs.
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Do not use automatic start if a start interlock is required in your application after a power cycle.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
WARNING

Monitored Start
In monitored start mode, the outputs are activated when:
All required inputs are closed
A falling edge is applied to the start input. A falling edge means that the start switch is pressed
and released again.
At nominal supply voltage, the start switch must be released within 20 seconds (± 5 seconds) after
it has been closed. The exact delay depends on supply voltage and ambient temperature.

External Device Monitoring (EDM)
Description
External device monitoring functionality is used to ensure that external contactors controlled by the
safety module outputs are able to interrupt the safety circuit. This functionality is implemented by
adding the external contactor feedback to the start condition of the safety module.
The external contactor must provide a feedback through a normally closed auxiliary contact forcibly
guided by its normally open safety contact. The start condition is valid only when the external
feedback (normally closed) is closed.
External device monitoring can be performed on:
1 channel.
External feedback is provided to the start condition.
2 channels for short circuit detection.
External feedback is provided to the start condition and to the S4 input.
NOTE: The state of the external device is only monitored when the safety module is analyzing the
start condition validity. When outputs are activated, the external device is not monitored.
EDM Configuration With One Channel
This figure shows an example of 1 channel EDM with the external feedback (K3 and K4) added to

Synchronization Time Monitoring for TM3SAK6R / TM3SAK6RG
Description
The synchronization time monitoring is relevant for 2-channel applications. It monitors both inputs
to determine that they are activated simultaneously (within a defined time). The synchronization
time monitoring allows to detect a contact error (short-circuit) before the activation of the other
input.
When the synchronization time monitoring is enabled, the outputs are allowed to be activated if
both input S21-S22 and input S31-S32 are activated within 2 or 4 seconds. The defined time
depends on which input is activated first as explained in the following figure. The outputs are not
activated if the synchronization time is expired.
This figure represents the synchronization time monitoring chronogram on a TM3SAK6R• module
in a 2-channel application:
Events description:
1. S21-S22 operated before S31-S32
2. S31-S32 operated before S21-S22
3. Outputs are not activated because the synchronization time is expired.
Synchronization Time Monitoring Control
The synchronization time monitoring is enabled or disabled by the system controller through a
communication with the safety module on the TM3 Bus.
The synchronization time monitoring is an additional feature that contributes to the safety system,
but cannot itself provide for functional safety.
INCORRECT USE OF THE INTERNAL SYNCHRONIZATION TIME CONDITION
Do not use the synchronization time monitoring to control safety-related operations.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
When enabled, the synchronization time is monitored by the module internal safety-related
microcontroller.
In a 2-channel application, S21-S22 and S31-S32 simultaneous activation is monitored if SyncOn
bit is set to 1.
