Designing a Sample Configuration
The configuration process used in this guide provides basic understanding of the software features that are
necessary to create a configuration for any application. The example configuration is based on a sample
application which makes use of the following devices: an XS/SC26-2 Safety Controller, an E-stop button, a
Safety Light Curtain, an Interlocked Gate Switch, and a Manual Reset. The illustration below depicts these
devices and additional safety equipment for a sample Robotic Cell application.
System Requirements
Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 3, Windows Vista, Windows 7,
Operating system:
Windows 8 (except Windows RT), or Windows 10
Hard drive space: 80 MB (plus up to 280 MB for Microsoft .NET 4.0, if not already installed)
Screen Resolution: 1024x768 full color minimum, 1650x1050 full color recommended
Microsoft .NET 4.0 (included with installer), PDF Viewer (such as Adobe
Third-party software:
Acrobat)
Important: Administrative rights are required to install the Safety Controller drivers (needed for
communication with the controller).
Open XS26-2 Expandable Safety Controller from the Desktop or the Start Menu.

It is the responsibility of the Qualified Person who configures, installs, or maintains the XS26-2
Safety Controller to:
• Carefully read, understand, and follow the information in the XS26-2 manual (which can be
accessed via the drop-down Help menu of the PC Interface)
• Perform a risk assessment of the specific machine guarding application
• Determine what safeguarding devices and methods are appropriate per the requirements
defined in ISO 13849-1 and those referenced in the XS26-2 manual
• Create and confirm each XS26-2 configuration and then verify that the entire safeguarding
system (including input devices and output devices) is operational and working as intended
• Periodically re-verify, as needed, that the entire safeguarding system is working as intended
Failure to follow any of these recommendations may potentially create a dangerous condition
that may lead to serious injury or death.
