Safety Precautions
F3 DIO 88 01
Observe all local safety requirements and use the protective equipment required on site.
Emergency Information
A HIMatrix system is a part of the safety equipment of a site. If a device or a module fails, the
system enters the safe state.
In case of emergency, no action that may prevent the HIMatrix systems from operating safely is
permitted.
Product Description
The safety-related F3 DIO 8/8 01 remote I/O is a compact system in a metal housing with
8 digital inputs, 8 digital DO+ outputs (L- ground), 2 digital DO- outputs (S+ ground) and 2
pulsed outputs. The digital outputs DO4+, DO8+, DO4- and DO8- can also be connected as
2-pole connections.
The remote I/O is available in various model variants for SILworX and ELOP II Factory, see
Table 4.
Remote I/Os are connected to individual HIMax or HIMatrix controllers via safeethernet. They
are used to extend the I/O level, but are not able to run any user program by themselves.
The remote I/O is suitable for mounting in Ex-zone 2. see Chapter 4.1.5.
The device is TÜV-certified for safety-related applications up to SIL 3 (IEC 61508. IEC 61511
and IEC 62061), Cat. 4 and PL e (EN ISO 13849-1) and SIL 4 (EN 50126. EN 50128 and
EN 50129).
Further safety standards, application standards and test standards are specified in the
certificates available on the HIMA website.

3.1.1
Safety Function
The remote I/O is equipped with safety-related digital inputs and outputs. The input values on
the inputs are safely transmitted to the connected controller via safeethernet. The outputs are
safely assigned their values by the connected controller via safeethernet.
Safety-Related Digital Inputs
The remote I/O is equipped with 8 digital inputs. The state (HIGH, LOW) of each input is
signaled by an individual LED.
Mechanical contacts without own power supply or signal power source can be connected to the
inputs. Potential-free mechanical contacts without own power supply are fed via an internal
short-circuit-proof 24 V power source (LS+). Each of them supply a group of 4 mechanical
contacts. Figure 1 shows how the connection is performed.
With signal voltage sources, the corresponding ground must be connected to the input (L-), see
Figure 1.
Reaction in the Event of a Fault
If the device detects a fault on a digital input, the user program processes a low level in
accordance with the de-energized to trip principle.
The device activates the FAULT LED.
In addition to the channel signal value, the user program must also consider the corresponding
error code.
The error code allows the user to configure additional fault reactions in the user program.
Line Control
Line control is used to detect short-circuits or open-circuits and can be configured for the
remote I/O, e.g., on EMERGENCY STOP inputs complying with Cat. 4 and PL e in accordance
with EN ISO 13849-1.
To this end, connect the digital outputs TO 1 through TO 2 of the system to the digital inputs DI
of the same system as follows:
The remote I/O pulses the pulsed outputs to detect short-circuits and open-circuits on the lines
connected to the digital inputs. To do so, configure the Value [BOOL] -> system variable in
SILworX or the DO[01].Value system signal in ELOP II Factory. The variables for the pulsed
outputs must begin with channel 1 and reside in direct sequence, one after the other.
If the following faults occur, the FAULT LED located on the front plate of the device blinks, the
inputs are set to low level and an (evaluable) error code is created:
Cross-circuit between two parallel wires.
Invalid connections of two lines (e.g., TO 2 to DI 3),
Earth fault on one wire (with earthed ground only).
Open-circuit or open contacts, i.e., including when one of the two EMERGENCY STOP
switches mentioned above has been engaged, the FAULT LED blinks and the error code is
created.Safety-Related Digital Outputs
The remote I/O is equipped with 8 digital outputs DO+ (ground L-) and 2 digital outputs DO-
(ground S+). The state (HIGH, LOW) of each output is signaled by an individual LED (HIGH,
LOW).
F3 DIO 8/8 01
At the maximum ambient temperature, the DO+ outputs 1…3 and 5…7 can be loaded with 0.5 A
each, and DO+ outputs 4 and 8 can be loaded with 1 A or with 2 A at an ambient temperature of
up to 40 °C.
At the maximum ambient temperature, the DO- outputs 4- and 8- can be loaded with 1 A each
or with 2 A at an ambient temperature of up to 40 °C.
Within a temperature range of 60…70 °C, all outputs of the F3 DIO 8/8 014 can be loaded with
0.5 A, see Table 15.
The digital outputs DO4+, DO8+, DO4- and DO8- can be connected as one-pole or 2-pole
switching connections. The remaining outputs are only set up for one-pole switching
connections.
With 1-pole switching outputs, ensure that the system’s L- ground from the corresponding
channel group is used for the DO+ outputs and the system’s S+ ground is used for the DO-
outputs, see Table 18. The S+ ground is limited by the system to a maximum current of 8 A and
obtained from the 24 V voltage connection.
The external wire of an output is not monitored, however, a detected short-circuit is signaled.
With 2-pole switching outputs, the L+ switching output DO4+ must be connected to the L-
switching output DO4- and the L+ switching output DO8+ to the L- switching output DO8-. This
type of connection must be set via the DO2[xx].2-pole system parameter
Line Diagnosis
During 2-pole operation, a line diagnosis is performed to detect potential external short-circuits
to L+ and L-. Time on delay is required to detect external short-circuits with an inductive or
capacitive load or a lamp load. This delay can be configured using the Time on delay system
parameter. In the range of 0…30 ms, the value can be set in steps of 1 ms.
Reaction in the Event of a Fault
If the device detects a faulty signal on a digital output, the affected module output is set to the
safe (de-energized) state using the safety switches.
If a device fault occurs, all digital outputs are switched off.
In both cases, the devices activates the FAULT LED.
The error code allows the user to configure additional fault reactions in the user program.
Pulsed Outputs
The 2 digital pulsed outputs can be used to detect short-circuits and open-circuits on digital
inputs, e.g., on EMERGENCY STOP button complying with Cat. 4 and PL e in accordance with
EN ISO 13849-1.
