62061:2003 (CDV IEC 62061:2003) edition 1 (document 44/441/CDV) shall be taken into account for the application software development. These requirements for application software may be achieved by use of techniques such as defensive programming, structured programming, modularity (i.e. logic/function blocks, sequence diagrams, etc.), re-use of software modules that satisfy the above requirements, depending of the programming tool available with the SRECS. It is recommended to apply pre-certified software modules (e.g. two-hand controls, emergency stop) if available. Verification: Verification has to be carried out against the specification(s) by checking relevant drawings and/or circuit diagrams, calculation, inspection. c) Validation A SRECS shall be validated to ensure that the specified machine safety function performance is achieved. This validation shall show that all parts interact correct to perform the safety function and that unintended functions do not occur. Validation of the SRECS shall be in accordance with the requirements of EN ISO 13849-2:2003, e.g. by checking the relevant drawings and/or diagrams, flow charts, simulation of faults, inspection, measurement and relevant functional testing on the machine. Validation includes the use of testing and analysis techniques (e.g. static, dynamic or failure analysis). These analysis techniques may be used to reduce the number of test cases. 5.2.2 Position of controls 5.2.2.1 Manual machines The main electrical control devices of the machine for starting the saw spindles, normal stopping and emergency stop (if provided) shall be located at the front side of the machine within 600 mm from the centre line of the V-cut and between a minimum height of 600 mm and a maximum height of 1 800 mm from the floor level on a fixed part of the machine e.g. frames or panels.

Where a foot pedal is used to control powered workpiece clamping it shall be shrouded against unintentional activation. The force required to actuate the foot pedal shall not exceed 350 N. The switching device of the foot pedal shall be hardwired and the safety related parts of the control system shall conform to category 1 in accordance with the requirements of EN 954-1:1996.
