PLC FAT and SAT checklist: test behavior and handover evidence
Plan factory and site acceptance around requirements, observable results, failure states, approved changes and recoverable project files.
IEC 62061
Machinery functional-safety standard for control systems.
IEC 62061 specifies the functional-safety requirements and design methodology for safety-related control systems on machinery. It uses SILCL targets for safety functions and addresses architecture, reliability, validation, and software.

PLC analog input scaling: raw counts, 4–20 mA and diagnostics
Map raw counts into engineering units, check the configured channel range, and keep signal-quality diagnostics separate from the displayed value.
OT backup and restore testing: prove the recovery path
Inventory the files and dependencies needed to recover a control system, set recovery objectives, and test restoration on an isolated target.
