Abstract: An evaluation system includes a process execution module that executes an operation in accordance with a safety program, a setting module that receives an evaluation condition, a first determination module that changes the value of the input signal to be evaluated, from a first input value which is an initial value to a second input value, and determines whether a first output value of the output signal to be evaluated which is determined by the process execution module is identical to the expected output value, a second determination module that restores the value of the input signal to be evaluated, from the second input value to the first input value, and determines whether a second output value of the output signal to be evaluated which is determined by the process execution module is identical to the first output value, and an output module that outputs a determination result.

Abstract: An information processing device collects information on an operating state of a communication system formed of a master device that manages communication over a network and at least one slave device connected to the network and capable of performing communication as instructed by the master device. The master device and the slave device record communication log entries regarding time information and a communication state in accordance with communication processing. The information processing device includes an acquiring section that acquires communication log entries from at least one of the master device and the slave device, a log entry rearranging section that rearranges the acquired communication log entries based on the time information, and a log entry extracting section that extracts, out of the rearranged communication log entries, any communication log entry recorded within a predetermined period of time from occurrence of a communication log entry including communication abnormality information.

Abstract: A safety device of the invention includes at least one of an input unit having one or more input terminals and an output unit having one or more output terminals, a testing unit having one or more test terminals, a rewritable nonvolatile memory configured to store setting information of a terminal specification which can be set from outside via the tool, and wherein the terminal specification of the one or more test terminals included in the testing unit is determined in accordance with the setting information of the terminal specification.

Abstract: This invention provides an input device of safety unit which enables an error diagnosis result referred to in a process of input processing for generating a control data from raw input signal to be referred by a side using the control data also in a safety unit such as a safety master and safety slave. An input device contains a function of outputting status data indicating the error diagnosis result referred to when input signal is converted to control data and the control data obtained by the conversion in pair, so that when the logical value of the control data is “LOW”, whether it originates from that the raw logical value is “LOW” or that “LOW” is compulsorily set due to an error in the terminal can be determined from the logical value of the status data.
