CIP Safety SCanner // Adapter Toolkit

Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) Safety is a protocol extension developed by the ODVA. The CIP Safety protocol offers a set of highly integrated safety services which leverage the underlying communications stacks of the standard CIP networks to transport data from a source to a destination. CIP Safety allows end-users to implement safety systems in a more integrated, cost-effective manner. The Molex CIP Safety Software Kits (also known as Stack) are offered as a tool kit, with the stack provided as modular “C” code that is pre-certified. The Stack allows the manufacturer of intelligent industrial products, both Scanner and Adapter, to implement the necessary safety-application layer that enables products to comply with the CIP Safety specification from ODVA. The CIP Safety Stack is approved by TUV for SIL3 applications, and it has been conformance tested using the ODVA Conformance Test. The CIP Safety Stack is completely hardware independent and can be integrated on Safety Real Time Operating system or on Bare-metal platform. Molex can support customers that request assistance with design implementation and/or guidance through Safety TUV approval.
