Complementary information
The Fast Shut Off function only has an effect on the inputs and outputs of the same
module. Response times of 4.5 ms can be achieved using fast shut off.
13.2.1
Calculating the response time
Overview
You need to consider each signal path separately when calculating the response time.
Important information
NOTE
The calculation applies exclusively to the safety controller. You need to separately
consider the response times of sensors and actuators.
Approach
b
Use the following table to calculate the response time of the connected signal
paths of the safety controller.
