5.8.7
Acceptance Test and Acceptance Log
Description
In order to verify the parameters for the fail-safe functions, an acceptance test must be
carried-out after commissioning, reset and also when changing a completely backed-up data
set of the parameters for the fail-safe functions (e.g. by MMC). This acceptance test must be
appropriately logged and documented. An example for an appropriate acceptance log is
included in the Appendix. The acceptance logs should be adequately archived.
Acceptance test
The machinery construction company (OEM) must carry-out an acceptance test for the fail-
safe functions that have been activated at the machine.
Authorized person, acceptance log
Appropriately authorized personnel must test each of the fail-safe functions. These must be
documented/logged in an acceptance log and must be signed. The acceptance log must be
inserted/attached in/to the logbook of the machine
Authorized in this case means a person from the machinery construction company (OEM)
that as a result of their training and knowledge regarding the fail-safe functions, can
appropriately carry-out an acceptance test.
Note
The information/instructions and descriptive information regarding commissioning in Section
"Commissioning the fail-safe applications" of this Manual must be carefully observed.
If parameters for the fail-safe functions are changed, then a new acceptance test must be
carried-out and included as acceptance log.
The template for the acceptance log is provided in printed form as example or
recommendation in this Operating Instructions.
