Ixxat Safe T100 Manual, Version 4.0
1.1.1 T100 safety precautions
The T100 contains measures against a set of reasonably
foreseeable misuse which is the use of a product, process or
service in a way not intended by the supplier, but which may result
from readily predictable human behavior. In addition the T100 is
also prepared to deal with some malevolent or accidental misuse.
As the end user is connecting sensors and actuators directly to the
T100 there is a direct interaction and therefore a source of errors to
be considered. The failures of IO modules are covered by
measures described below in chapters “Digital Input,
Semiconductor (DI-S)” (section 3.5.1.2), “Digital Input, Contact (DI-
C)” (section 3.5.1.1) and “Digital Output (DO)” (section 3.5.3).
Nevertheless, the Integrator and the end user has to think about all
reasonably foreseeable misuse and malevolent or unauthorized
actions that may result in his applications and check if the measures
of the T100 are strong enough to detect and safely treat these error
sources. [SC_344, SC_381]
