When relevant?
Description
Value [ms]
Input element is connected to a test
output (X).
•
For safety sensors with a test input or
Flexi Loop: test pulse frequency of the
test output
•
For safety pressure mats: the longer
test pulse frequency of the two test
outputs
•
For electro-mechanical switch/safety
switch (EMSS): test pulse duration of
the test output

Table 157: OUT3 … OUT5 - Response time for processing of outgoing process data
When relevant?
Description
Value [ms]
OUT3
When using a gateway.
2 × internal update interval (4 ms) – 3 ms
= 5 ms
5
OUT4
When using Modbus® TCP
or SLMP.
2 × internal update interval (20 ms) –
3 ms
= 37 ms
–
OUT5
When using Flexi Loop on
the expansion module (ser‐
vice data).
2 × internal update interval (56 ms) -
1 ms
= 111 ms

Table 158: Calculating the maximum response time – signal path 2
Components of
the calculation
Description
Value [ms]
1. Inputs
Response time of the
observed input in the
signal path
IN1, IN3, IN4 or IN5
•
3
2. Logic
a) Response time
of the main module
logic
2 × logic execution time
Take the value from the report in the
configuration software.
8
Delay due to logic application (e.g.
switch-on delay or switch-off delay
function block)
Take the value from the report in the
configuration software.
b) Response time of
the routing
For OUT3 output to the gateway only
No delay time
0
c) Response time of
the fast shut off logic
No delay time
0
3. Outputs
Response time of the
observed output in
the signal path
OUT1, OUT2, OUT3, OUT4 or OUT5
