Safety configuration

Introduction

The integrated safety functions of SINUMERIK Safety Integrated are used in the machine
tools sector. In the TIA Portal, you can select one of two Safety Integrated modes in
conjunction with the SINUMERIK Toolbox:
● Safety Integrated (SPL) (general) (Page 177)
● Safety Integrated plus (F-PLC) (general) (Page 192)
Because the Safety Integrated modes must be licensed (Page 174) and configured
differently, Safety Integrated is not active as default setting. You should activate the desired
Safety Integrated mode directly at the start of the configuring work so that the system can
assign the affected parameters automatically where possible.
The following sample configuring sequences serve as an aid for the configuring and provide
an overview of this chapter content.
● Configuring Safety Integrated (SPL) (handling overview) (Page 177)
● Configuring Safety Integrated plus (F-PLC) (handling overview) (Page 194)
You can, however, make most settings for Safety Integrated in TIA Portal in any order. If you
already have experience with configuring SINUMERIK Safety Integrated, you can orient
yourself on the overview of the Safety Integrated relevant parameters (Page 167).
