IO-Link Safety Master Stack
Would you like to extend your IO-Link master with functional safety?
Functional Description IO-Link Safety Master Stack
The FSCP (Functional Safety Communication Profile) Gateway exchanges safety-relevant process data with the IO-Link Safety Communication Layer (SCL) and the associated Safety Layer Manager (SLM). For SIL3 support, it is strongly recommended to implement SLM and SCL redundantly in two channels.
A Fieldbus Gateway is added to exchange non-safe process data as well as configuration and status information.
SMI Handler and Splitter Composer are extensions of the IO-Link Black Channel and are responsible for routing SMI services and processing safe and non-safe process data.
The TEConcept solution of the Safety Master Stack supports multiple architectures. It allows the reuse of an existing IO-Link Master with SMI support, but also architectures where the IO-Link Master and Fieldbus Gateways use the same MCU.
Features IO-Link Safety Master Stack
- SMI communication between modules
- Module certification by a notified body in preparation
- Support for IO-Link / IO-Link FS V1.1.5
Advantages of the Safety Master Stacks
- Reuse of existing IO-Link Master architectures with SMI interface
- Clear separation between safe and non-safe components
- Hardware-independent implementation
- Simplified evaluation of the IO-Link FS Master by using a pre-certified software module
Limitations
OSSDe requires support for Legacy FS-DI or FS-DO
Scope of Delivery
- Pre-certified Safety Master Stack
- Quality Manual
- Master Tool Windows application (for development purposes) with Device Tool interface
- Development support (optional)
Additional offerings for the Safety Master Stack
In the safety domain as well, the IO-Link Community places great importance on products meeting the required specifications and on IO-Link Safety functioning reliably in the field. As an accredited IO-Link Competence and Test Center, TEConcept offers the IO-Link Safety Master Tester for this purpose — the approved tool for protocol conformance testing of IO-Link Safety Masters.
IO-Link Safety Master Tester
The IO-Link Safety Master Tester automatically executes the prescribed IFAK test vectors according to the Safety Test Specification and generates a PDF test report — a prerequisite for the safety assessment by a notified body such as TÜV.
