E-stop source safety PLC connected FlexController
In this mode an external safety PLC controls the e-stop. The safety PLC is connected to a PROFINET fieldbus module on the FlexController. Use an ASM plug on the FlexCarrier.

Error-Bits reported by the FlexController via PROFIsafe shall not be used to trigger the safety function of a device or system.
GSD-file
Atlas Copco delivers a GSD-file that includes a description of the FlexSystem as an IO device in PROFINET. Use this GSD-file when configuring the PROFINET system.

Input process image
The input process image contains the data and status collected from the local digital inputs of the PROFISafe module as well as the PROFIsafe frame elements which are to be transported via PROFINET from the PROFISafe module to the PROFIsafe PLC.

The qualifier bits QDI_X indicate whether a fail-safe error was detected at the corresponding input or output channel of the ProfiSafe module. If set to 0, the input or output state is “fail-safe”, that is, the input data contains the fail-safe values or the output is locally set to the fail-safe value by the ProfiSafe module. A qualifier with the value 1 indicates that the input or output is operated without any fail-safe errors.
The input- and output channel qualifiers are operated individually, that is, the qualifiers show the error state only for the corresponding channel or channel group. Other channels may still operate correctly.
Bit | Value | Description |
DI_x | 0 | Input channel inactive (safe state) |
1 | Input channel active | |
QDI_x | 0 | Input channel status “error”, DI_x set to inactive / safe state |
1 | Input channel normal operation. DI_x reflects physical input value | |
QDO_x | 0 | Output channel status “error”. DO_x is set to safe state / inactive |
1 | Output channel normal operation. DO_x can be set/reset via safety fieldbus protocol |
Output process image
The output process image of the PROFISafe module contains all the safety-relevant data sent from the F-Host to the PROFISafe module. The data of the output process image is used on the one hand to control the safe digital output states of the PROFISafe module and on the other hand to send the fail-safe error acknowledge data for the digital inputs and outputs of the PROFISafe module.
