IconTrust® GENERIC

In the illustrated IconTrust® GENERIC version, the panel pc receives the safe data from a safe computer. The data is processed and displayed by the panel pc. IconTrust® GENERIC monitors the displayed image areas on the TFT panel and transmits a protocol to the safe computer. The safe computer activates a defined reaction in case of error. In this way, IconTrust® GENERIC complements a safe data system with a safe display. If the system needs to go through an approval procedure, later system changes will require only that the modifications made to the safe computer be newly certified.

In an alternative IconTrust® GENERIC version, the monitor receives the display signals as well as the monitored areas through the standard interface of a safe computer. IconTrust® GENERIC checks the monitored areas and transmits the information simultaneously to the safe computer, and through a serial protocol to a pc.

The system structure, applications and defined monitored areas are bundled on the safe computer. Monitored areas for dynamic applications with many process signals are easily adapted and updated. In this area too, IconTrust® GENERIC enables a simplified approval process.
