Configuring
The fail-safe signal modules are configured as usual, similar to standard modules, using
HW Config.
Configuration in RUN (CiR)
The SM 326; DI 24 x DC 24 V (as of order no. 6ES7326-1BK01-0AB0) supports
configuration in run (CiR) when operated in standard mode (non-safety mode).
Additional information on CiR
For additional information on CiR, refer to:
●
In the
STEP 7 online help: "System changes in run using CiR"

In the
Safety Engineering in SIMATIC S7 system description
Enhanced availability in standard and safety mode
You can enhance availability by means of redundant operation of the F-SMs fail-safe signal
modules in standard mode (exception: SM 326; DO 8 x DC 24V/2A PM, SM 326; F-DO 10 x
DC 24V/2A PP and SM 336; F-AI 6 x 0/4 ... 20 mA HART).
Requirements:
●
STEP 7 V5.3 and higher, or
●
STEP 7 V5.2 or higher, plus optional software package S7 H Systems V5.2 or higher
In safety mode, you can operate the F-SMs redundantly in S7 F/FH Systems F-systems
(with the exception of SM 326; DO 8 x DC 24V/2A PM).
Requirements:
●
STEP 7 V5.3 and higher, or
●
STEP 7 V5.2 or higher, plus optional software package S7 H Systems V5.2 or higher
●
S7 F Systems optional software package

You enhance availability of the modules by assigning the corresponding parameters in the
"Redundancy" tab of the object properties dialog for the modules.
