General <strong>Guide</strong>lines<br />

This section describes standard industry guidelines that apply to:<br />

All <strong>Safety</strong> <strong>Systems</strong><br />

• All safety systems<br />

• Emergency shutdown (ESD) systems<br />

• Burner management systems<br />

• Fire and gas systems<br />

General <strong>Guide</strong>lines 17<br />

These general guidelines apply to all user-written safety applications and procedures:<br />

• A design-change review, code-change review, and functional testing are recommended<br />

to verify the correct design and operation.<br />

• An integrator using a Triconex controller should have training and experience in<br />

development using the TriStation 1131 software, training in functional safety and<br />

Triconex maintenance, and knowledge of Triconex documentation:<br />

— Enhanced Diagnostic Monitor User’s <strong>Guide</strong><br />

— TriStation 1131 Developer’s <strong>Guide</strong><br />

— TriStation 1131 Libraries Reference<br />

• After a safety system is commissioned, no changes to the system software (operating<br />

system, I/O drivers, diagnostics, etc.) are allowed without type approval and recommissioning.<br />

Any changes to the application or the control application should be<br />

made under strict change-control procedures. For more in<strong>for</strong>mation on change-control<br />

procedures, see Project Change and Control on page 26. All changes should be<br />

thoroughly reviewed, audited, and approved by a safety change control committee or<br />

group. After an approved change is made, it should be archived.<br />

• In addition to printed documentation of the application, two copies of the application<br />

should be archived on an electronic medium that is write-protected to avoid accidental<br />

changes.<br />

• Under certain conditions, a PES may be run in a mode that allows an external computer<br />

or operator station to write to system attributes. This is normally done by means of a<br />

communication link. The following guidelines apply to writes of this type:<br />

— The communication link should use Modbus or other approved protocols with CRC<br />

checks.<br />

— The communication link should not be allowed to write directly to output points.<br />
