Good topics to “lead-in” with Safety Networks?
SIRIUS
Safety Controls
When meeting with your prospects ask the following
questions to start the conversation:

Do your operators ever jumper out safety systems?
 How often does you line stop do to safety faults?
 How long does it take to diagnose and solve the problem?
 What if you could wire this machine in a fraction of the time by
combining your safety and control systems?
Engage your support team

Call your BDM or Controls Specialist if you have a lead. They
will assist you in coordinating the resources to close it!

Customer Benefits of AS-Interface
SIRIUS
Safety Controls
 Easy installation and operation thanks to simple design
 Cost savings for connection technology and installation due
to single-line power and data transmission
 High degree of operational reliability thanks to continuous
monitoring of the connected devices
 Reduced control cabinet size due to fewer I/O modules and
terminals
 Fewer terminal boxes in the field thanks to the modules‘
degree of protection IP67
 Easy and fast commissioning
 Reduced maintenance in product fault cases due to hot-swap
slave replacement without having to re-teach the master
 Reduced downtime of the AS-i network thanks to easy
visualization of the complete network without extra wiring

System-based simplicity: The structure
SIRIUS
Safety Controls
An AS-Interface system comprised of a master,
an AS-I power supply unit and the nodes – the
so-called slaves.
 The AS-Interface Master
The master uses cyclic polling to
exchange data with the slaves. In
one cycle, four data bits are
exchanged in the incoming
direction and four data bits in the
outgoing direction.
 The AS-Interface power
supply
This 30volt unit ensures that data
and power can be transferred
along one and the same cable.

An AS-Interface network can be
simply and quickly configured – in
one of two ways:
1) The nodes are addressed using
the AS-I addressing device
2) The nodes are configured by just
pressing a button on the master
 The AS-i modules are automatically assigned to the I/O
area of the control.
 When a single module is replaced, the master
automatically reassigns the same address to it.

 25% reduction in installation cost was realized by replacing traditional control
wiring in conduit
 30% faster installation time allowing more flexibility in the schedule
 Pre-engineered cable paths along the system eliminated excess cabling cost
 Although the cable was installed in Panduit wiring duct mounted on the
conveyors, it could have been tie-wrapped along the conveyors and still
perform well in the warehouse environment.
 Using the common I/O blocks kept the system setup simple and straight
