Maintenance

No periodic maintenance or calibration is required for the
digital input modules. There are no user replaceable parts
inside these modules.

Failed modules can be hot replaced. If the module being
replaced has been configured to support multidrop
connections be sure to check the jumper settings and properly
configure the new module’s jumpers before installing it.

Safety Considerations

Communications modules are TÜV certified for Risk Class 5
safety applications as non-interfering and can be used in a
safety system for normal data acquisition functions.

Communications modules are approved for peer-to-peer
communications of safety critical data between two or more
Regent systems in Risk Class 5 safety applications. This
requires the use of redundant Guarded Peer-Link
communications networks where the network connections are
made on redundant communications modules at each Regent.

For additional safety considerations involving
communications with the Regent, refer to the Safety
Considerations Section of the Regent User’s Manual.
