Operating instructions
Safety-monitoring module

8.2  Integral System Diagnostics (ISD)

The LED indication of the safety-monitoring modules shows the  
different switching conditions and errors.The switching conditions  
are explained in the following tables.

Tables switching condition indication

Diagnostic LED

System condition

The LED is green.

Enabling paths closed

LED lashes yellow (0.5 Hz)

Enabling paths open

LED lashes yellow (2 Hz)

Safety guard closed, however no  

release; possible causes: incorrect 

 

operation (only one contact actuated 

upon opening) or voltage drop 

→ perform start-up test

The safety-monitoring modules have two more LED indications. The 
yellow LED is intermittently on. The switching conditions are explained 
in the following tables.

Indication (yellow) LED

System condition

1 impulse

Safety guard 1 open

2 impulses

Safety guard 2 open

Indication  
(orange) LED

Error

Cause

1 impulse

Inputs S1

Defective supply 
voltage lead, defective 

switch, erroneous itting 

of the switch; switch 

only partially actuated 
for at least 5 s

2 impulses

Inputs S2

Refer to errors  
inputs S1

3 impulses

Inputs S1 and S2

Refer to errors  
inputs S1

4 impulses

Interference signals 
at the inputs  
(no safe evaluation 

assured)

Too high capacitive or 
inductive interference 
at the switch's cables 
or the supply voltage 
lead

5 impulses

One or both relays 
did not close within 
the monitoring time

Too low operating 

voltage U

e; 

Defective relay

6 impulses

Relay not disabled 
upon the actuation 
of the switch

Relay contact welding

7 impulses

Dynamic monitoring 
of both channels 

(cross-monitoring) 

failure

Fault in one channel; 

internal data trans-
mission interrupted

* Partial actuation: position of the switch, in which only one contact was actuated.

Deleting the error message

The error message is deleted, when the error cause is eliminated 
and the AES can check all functions. In case of an error of switch 1 
or switch 2, actuate the switch concerned (open the safety guard and 

close it again). For all other errors, both switches must be actuated.
