2.2.1 User agreement in Safety Integrated
If you are using Safety Integrated (SI) on your machine, you will need
to confirm that the current displayed position of an axis corresponds to
its actual position on the machine when you reference an axis. Your
confirmation is the precondition for the availability of other Safety
Integrated functions.
You can only give your user agreement for an axis after it has
approached the reference point.
The displayed axis position always refers to the machine coordinate
system (MCS = machine).
User agreement with Safety Integrated is only possible with a
software option.
For more information on user agreement, please refer to:
