# Industrial systems and methods for updating a safety program

## Abstract

An industrial system comprises: a sensor and/or an actuator; a safety apparatus configured to execute a safety program for controlling the sensor and/or the actuator; and an update device configured: to obtain update information; to evaluate the update information; based on the evaluation, to determine whether the update information can be applied to the safety program; and, based on the determination, either to apply the update information to the safety program or to discard the update information.
