Overview

Features and benefits

  • Comprehensive safety solution

    Ixxat Functional Safety over EtherCAT (FSoE) software delivers efficient industrial safety communication, providing a multitude of communication options and robust protocol management.

  • Operating system independence

    The software functions with or without an operating system and enables implementation in a wide range of environments, for high flexibility in deployment.

  • Multi-instance support for parallel functionality

    The FSoE software allows parallel instantiation, both for SubDevice and MainDevice functionality, providing a multitude of communication options for the safe applications with a single device.

  • Flexible interface structure

    The clearly structured software interfaces and abstraction layers enable the use of different non-safe EtherCAT communication interfaces, such as the Anybus CompactCom Module.

  • High safety level assurance

    Developed according to IEC 61508 for applications up to SIL 3, in compliance with the latest FSoE Specification, the software ensures a high standard of safety and reliable performance.

  • Simplified integration and recertification

    Easy porting and (re-)certification of FSoE software on customer-specific platforms thanks to the included unit tests and the safety manual, along with clearly separated adaptation layers.

  • User-friendly setup

    The best way to assess the FSoE software is through a PC example application, along with the safety manual guiding through integration, testing procedures, and configuration steps for the software.

  • Tailored implementation

    Provided as C source code, allowing for customized integration into secure platforms and creating a solution for various requirements.

  • Supported standards and platforms

    Standard: FSoE Specification ETG.5100 (implemented according to latest standard implemented and tested) / Platforms: PC demo, conformance tested, pre-certified by TÜV Rheinland

  • 12-month maintenance separately available

    Optional 12-month updates and maintenance can be purchased separately, ensuring the software stays current and well-maintained for optimal performance and security.
