Verifying the configuration in Safety Designer
Overview
By verifying the configuration, you can confirm that the configuration complies with the
planned safety function and fulfills the requirements in the risk assessment.
During verification, Safety Designer reads back the transmitted configuration from the
safe multibeam scanner. It compares the configuration with the configuration saved
in Safety Designer. If both configurations are identical, Safety Designer displays the
verification report. If the user confirms that this is correct, the system is considered to
be verified.
