All,
I'm working on a project using an L62S. I've noticed that non-Safety tasks can view (read-only) controller scoped Safety tags. However it does not seem that you can read standard controller tags in a Safety task.
The problem is that we are running a gantry system to pick from a pallet. To enter the Gantry area, there is a safety input Pushbutton. However we also need to know that the gantry is in a safe position prior to allowing access.
Unfortunately there does not seem to be a way to view the status of the gantry as all of that information is non-safety controller scoped tags.
Is there any way to get this information into the Safety task?
I'd like to avoid adding a output to a safety input just for this one bit of information.
Thanks
