As diagnostic information, the solution provides data such as partial actuation, voltage surges and dips, temperature effects, switching cycles, bouncing, RFID identification/recognition. All additional diagnostic data provided by each sensor is intended to facilitate preventive maintenance. In addition to simple remote maintenance, for example via a web server, the integrated display on the fieldbus module ensures that information is not only available on the machine's operating monitors, but also directly in the control cabinet. According to the manufacturer, the fieldbus module serves as the only interface for the system bus of all connected safety devices, which should minimize the installation effort. It is also possible to connect third-party devices directly via the integrated I/Os.
