What is the method to replace a safety IO module?
The steps to replace a safety IO module are not the same as standard IO. See the list of steps that will guide you through the process.
For IO module replacement:
- Ensure the module is the same series, and major revision, will never work if they don’t match exactly.
- Go to controller properties and unlock if lock applied (doesn't have to have a lock since its just user access)
- Put the controller in program mode and then delete the safety signature
- Inhibit the IO module being replaced
- Power down and change IO module
- Power up rack with IO
- Reset ownership of IO module replaced
- Un-inhibit the IO module
- Generate a new safety signature
- Return processor to Run mode
