Configuring Safety Connections between a GuardLogix Controller and POINT Guard I/O Modules on a DeviceNet Network

The Safety Device Verification Wizard, accessed from RSNetWorx for
DeviceNet software, guides you through the process of verifying the
configuration of your safety devices and provides the means for safety-locking
those devices. The verification process includes upload and comparison of the
configuration stored in the device and the configuration stored in the
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software configuration file. The configuration is
displayed in a report to facilitate visual verification and record keeping.

Follow these steps to run the Safety Device Verification Wizard.

1. Choose Network>Safety Device Verification Wizard.

2. On the Welcome dialog box, click Next.

Determine If Devices Can Be Verified

When the Safety Device Verification Wizard browses the network, it checks the
safety status of the devices on the network to determine if the devices can be
verified.

If any devices are in a state that prevents the wizard from continuing the
verification process, the Unable to verify the listed devices dialog box appears
listing those devices and their current status, including a device icon overlaid with
a status icon.

To return to RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software so that you can correct the
status of the indicated devices, close the Safety Device Verification Wizard by
clicking Cancel.

IMPORTANT

Some devices on your network may not support verification by the Safety
Device Verification Wizard. Consult the user documentation to determine the
method required for verifying these devices.
