A contact-less safety device, i.e., a safety device operating without contact has an interface for the transmission of output signals to connectable appliances for signal processing. The output signals from the individual sensors of the safety device operating without contact can be transmitted separately via the interface.

Light barrier having separate output signals

A device for defining participants in a control system that controls a printing machine is provided. The control system includes a central computer and a number of participants which interact with the central computer in order to carry out processes. The participants are connected to one another via lines of a bus system. The lines of the bus system and the participants have respective plugs for connecting the lines of the bus system to the participants. The plugs of the lines of the bus system have reserved plug contacts which are provided with one or more galvanic links for defining the respective participants.

A device for synchronizing processes which run on a plurality of units including a central unit linked with other units via a field bus, includes a device provided in the central unit for producing a system clock, the field bus having a vacant line for distributing the system clock to the other units, and respective multiplication devices located at the other units for multiplying the system clock; and a method of operating the device for synchronizing processes.

Method and device for synchronizing processes which are performed on a plurality of units

A device for monitoring safety-relevant processes in actuating/drive elements in machines having at least one operation control for safety-relevant and other than safety-relevant processes, at least one safety monitoring control, at least one safety input/output device and a redundantly constructed input/output system for safety-relevant processes, includes at least one field bus system connecting the operation control, the at least one safety input/output device and the at least one safety monitoring control to one another, at least one of the safety input/output device and the safety monitoring control being disposed in a distributed manner on an actuating/drive element for, respectively, initiating and performing a safety-relevant process; and a method of operating the device.
