Mcep 2730 Machine Safety With Banner Xs26 Safety Controller

Machine Safety Controller Programming

What you'll learn

Define basic objectives of Functional Machine Safety

Understand how to use the Banner XS26 Configuration Software

Determine basic setup features to a Functional Safety Circuit

Understand common practices of Functional Machine Safety

Requirements

Basic knowledge of Windows Operating systems is required.

Having a basic understanding of PLC wiring and programming is helpful, but not necessary

Description

This course is aimed at teaching beginning PLC programmers on how to use the Banner Engineering XS-26 Safety Configuration software to meet their machine safety needs.  This course will cover everything from an introduction into machine safety principles, configuring the module and add-on modules, Input devices that are available, the functionality of these input devices, a walk through of how to program these devices to the outputs, configuring the outputs for proper functionality, configuring network communications, and lastly a brief overview of how to transfer information to the controller.  We will also cover the topic of wiring this controller to our safety devices whether it be through discrete wiring into the machines main controller (PLC) to reduce any additionally wires that would be needed in a traditional hard wired safety-monitored relay. This course is designed with the learner in mind, understanding that using real world applications is a must for better understanding within the learning environment.  This course will include two different real world examples for how to use this system that you can use within your own needed applications.  We will also cover the topic of why a controller like this is so valuable when configuring two-hand controls and how a system like this can help reduce large amounts of wiring.
