Hi all,

We're using the IgH EtherCAT Master to relay FSoE black-channel frames between 
an EK6910 (TwinSAFE Logic Coupler) and its safety slaves — safety logic 
configured/downloaded via TwinCAT, PDOs mapped manually in the IgH master, 
following the approach described in the 2019 "Usage of IgH EtherCAT Master for 
Safety" thread.

For our safety file, we'd love something citable confirming the master needs no 
certification under IEC 61784-3, since it performs no safety function on the 
FSoE container itself.

A couple of questions, if anyone can help:

Is there an official IgH/ETG statement or document addressed to master 
vendors/integrators we could reference, beyond the general FSoE intro PDF?
Has anyone here taken this IgH + EK6910 setup through a functional safety audit 
or CE/machine certification — and if so, what did the assessor accept as 
evidence for the master's role?

Thanks in advance for any pointers — really appreciate this community.

Best regards,
