FAQ

1. Q: Can HIMatrix F35 be used for non-safety standard process control?
   A: It is SIL3 safety controller, mainly designed for safety interlock and ESD, not recommended for ordinary continuous process regulation.
2. Q: What are typical controller failure symptoms?
   A: Safety logic halt, Ethernet communication loss, I/O channel fault alarm, controller enters safe shutdown state.
3. Q: How to complete commissioning and diagnosis?
   A: Check 24VDC power and field wiring, download safety program via HIMA programming software, perform full I/O and safety function test.
