Recorded Webinars: Expediting SIL Verification using exSILentia
When performing Safety Integrity Level (SIL) Verification in exSILentia, each Safety Instrumented Function (SIF) should be clearly defined by its name, description, and tag. Also, each sensor group, logic solver group and final element group will need to be defined. This can become an inconvenience when a large number of SIFs are to be verified. It is my desire in this webinar to show a faster and more efficient way to load this type of data into exSILentia using its import feature.
