Important Notes
Safety
The Pendant V3 displays an emergency stop button and can act as an input unit of safety functions.
A complete safety system normally includes sensors or input units, logic units and contactors or output units. The manufacturer of the installation or machine is responsible for ensuring proper functioning of the whole system and validating the control system into which the Pendant V3 is integrated. Vention cannot guarantee all specifications of an installation or a machine without being responsible for the risk assessment and the design of the safety system. Vention takes over no liability for recommendations which are given or implied in the following description.
The following items must be taken into consideration during the design, risk assessment & installation of the safety system :
- The emergency stop button of the Pendant V3 shall not be put into operation only after the safety functions have been tested during the commissioning.
- Fault masking shall be considered.
- The use of the Pendant V3 does not prevent the automatic start of the devices connected to the Safety OUT ports. According to EN IEC 60204-1:2018 and EN ISO 10218-1:2011 it is not allowed to restart automatically after emergency stop. Therefore the control systems of the connected devices have to disable the automatic start after emergency stop.
- If the Pendant V3 is the last device on the safety chain, a Safety Jumper (CE-SA-102-0001) must be installed on the Safety In port.
- Opening the Pendant V3 or implementing unauthorized changes voids any warranty.
Functional error! Danger to life, risk of serious injuries or property damage
- The Pendant V3 can only be connected to Vention safety devices.
- The Pendant V3 is designed to operate in indoor environments without dust or high humidity. Dust and dampness may lead to malfunction. Do not install or operate the Safety Module outdoors.

Physical Interface
Power Button Functionality
- Pressing once on the power button while the Pendant V3 is OFF will power it ON.
- Pressing more than 10 seconds on the power button while the Pendant is ON will power it OFF.
- The Pendant goes into low brightness mode after 30 minutes of no interaction. Pressing once on the power button while the Pendant is ON and in low brightness mode will change the display to full brightness.
- If the Pendant is not connected to a MachineMotion controller, it will power OFF after 10 minutes.
- The Pendant V3 includes 2 optional camera privacy covers (as shown in Figures 6 & 7) which can be installed by the user if required.
Safety Data
The pendant V3 displays an emergency stop button which is connected to the safety loop of a MachineMotion v2.
When evaluating the performance of a safety function utilizing the pendant V3 attention shall be made in regards to the number of daisy chained emergency stop buttons and interlock devices. Fault masking reduces the performance level of the safety function. Guidance on fault masking can be found in ISO/TR 24119.
Safety data can be found in the following table depending on if the Pendant V3 is daisy chained or not.

---|---|---|---|---|
Pendant V3 - Daisy Chained | d | 3 | 697 | 60.01% |
Pendant V3 Single unit | e | 3 | 698 | 97.72% |
