Software tool PNOZmulti Configurator

Your safety circuit is easy to create on the PC using the PNOZmulti Configurator. The configuration tool supports you with the project design, configuration, documentation and commissioning of the Pilz small controllers.

On the graphics-based, Windows®-compliant user interface all elements are available for your safety circuit as icons or in selection menus. Online help with documentation is available during configuration of the safety circuit. Once it is complete, the tool checks the circuit for any errors.

From software version 10.9 of the PNOZmulti Configurator you can test your configured user program with the "Simulation" function, even before commissioning.

The fully configured safety circuit can be certified to protect it from unwanted changes. You can edit, amend or expand uncertified configurations of your safety circuit at any time. Simply call them up in the PNOZmulti Configurator! The configuration can be printed out and used as documentation.

Already familiar with the 2nd generation of small controllers PNOZmulti? The success story continues!

From Software Version 10.13, the software tool PNOZmulti Configurator offers some new elements to enable simple configuration of safe user programs, which are run by the configurable small controller PNOZmulti 2. As a result you can implement wide-ranging requirements efficiently when monitoring safety functions.

• L-muting: the muting element has been expanded for light curtain applications
• Configuration of the signal sequence for interlocking and releasing the safety gate system PSENmlock.
• Monitoring of analogue functions: mathematical function expanded to include multiplication and division of analogue values
• Two new logic elements digital encoder and digital decoder: for encoding and decoding input signals or output signals

On the hardware side, two new expansion modules are supported from Version 10.13:

• Input-output module PNOZ m EF 4DI4DORD with diverse relay outputs, for safe applications in industrial burner management. Benefit from the combination with the base unit PNOZ m B1 Burner!
• Motion monitoring module PNOZ m EF 1MM2DO with two semiconductor outputs for monitoring one axis (available from the 1st quarter /2021)

Benefit from these new or expanded functions when using the small controllers PNOZmulti 2. You can see all these innovations in the video!

Two new operating mode selection elements (function blocks) are available for functionally safe operating mode selection up to PL d / SIL CL 2. In conjunction with the operating mode selection and access permission system PITmode, specifically the PITreader, you have two user-friendly, safe solutions for selecting operating modes on plant and machinery.

• Operating mode selected via pushbutton: The operating mode can be selected via the Pilz PIT oe4S Buttonbox or also by using standard commercial pushbuttons. Permission to make the selection is configured in conjunction with PITreader and the corresponding RFIDKeys. The selected operating mode can be read in the PNOZmulti.
• Operating mode selected via touchscreen panel: Alternatively, the operating mode can be selected safely via a keypad on an HMI. That way the operating mode can be selected safely using the operator and visualisation terminals PMIvisu. Here too, permission to make the selection is granted via PITreader and RFIDKeys with the relevant configuration.

To control access permissions, the new Software Version 10.12 enables up to 4 PITreader devices to be connected to the base unit PNOZ m B1.

That's one-stop safety. The video shows you how to set up the configuration in the software tool!

From Version 10.12 there is also support for the PNOZ m B1 Burner, a new base unit for the small controllers PNOZmulti 2, which is specifically for applications in industrial burner management. Safe control and monitoring of furnaces in accordance with EN 50156 and EN 298 are implemented using the integrated burner function block. PNOZmulti 2 takes care of all the other plant-related safety functions at the same time.

• Software with read-made, certified blocks
• Simple, retrospective changes and adaptations to the configuration
• Short machine downtimes and high plant availability due to simple, universal diagnostics
• Worldwide safety standard for various automation environments and different communication systems
• Rapid commissioning and minimal work involved in wiring - why not see for yourself!
