SICK FlexiSoft

Flexi Soft is a programmable and modularly expandable safety controller capable of being integrated into various networks. The main module FX3-CPU is the CPU of the entire system within which all input signals are monitored and processed via the safety logic stored in the memory plug. These signals are then used to switch outputs on the system through the FLEX BUS+ interface which connects all units to one another.

The main unit has an RS-232 interface with which the Flexi Soft Designer can upload and change system settings. The RS-232 port can be used for permanent diagnosis (i.e. PLC or HMI) as well.

The main module FX3-CPU1 additionally has 2 EFI-connections on it. An input/output extension module FX3-XTIO has 8 safety inputs and 4 safety outputs. The input expansion module FX3-XTDI has 8 safety inputs.
