System Reaction Time
The system reaction time is the worst-case time from a safety-related event as
input to the system or as a fault within the system, until the time that the
system is in the safe state.
This worst-case definition includes the effects of asynchronous
communications, and multiple potential faults, occurring within the system.
Actual reaction times may be faster.
Each of the reaction times is dependent on factors such as the type of I/O
device and instructions that are used in the program.
Safety Task Reaction Time
The safety task reaction time is the worst-case delay from any input change that
is presented to the controller until the output producer sets the processed
output. Use this equation to determine the safety task reaction time:
Safety task reaction time = (safety task safety task watchdog) × 1.01
The multiplier is for potential clock drift.
