View Safety Status and Signature

When there is a Safety controller, the controller safety status, safety lock state, and safety signature information can be viewed using the
Safety Status
 button on the Online Bar and the
Safety
 tab on the
Controller Properties
 dialog.
The Safety signature consists of an ID, Date, and Time. The date and time values correspond to when the signature was generated. The ID is a unique value calculated by the controller over the memory contents at the time the signature is generated.
TIP:
Compact GuardLogix
 5380 and
GuardLogix
 5580 controllers
have a 32 byte ID. Only the first 4 bytes of the ID display
on the screen. Select Browse button to view and copy the entire 32 byte ID.
