Reactions to Faults in Standard Mode
Fault reactions
Fail-safe signal modules react to faults similar to standard modules in S7-300 or ET 200M
when operated in standard mode. You can react to a fault or interrupt event either by setting
a CPU STOP, or by calling an an error OB or interrupt OB in the user program (see
S7-300
Automation System: CPU 31xC and CPU 31x: installation Operating Instructions).
Fail-safe values
Fail-safe values can be assigned and are output by the fail-safe modules to the process, for
example, when:
●
the CPU goes into STOP, or when a CP operated as DP master goes into STOP
●
an IM 153-2/-2 FO (ET 200M) goes into STOP
●
PROFIBUS DP is interrupted
●
Interruption of PROFINET IO
Output of fail-safe values at the output modules
Fail-safe digital output modules operated in standard mode support the fail-safe values "0",
"1", or "hold last value". You assign the required fail-safe value in in the object properties
dialog for the F-SM in
HW Config (refer to the chapter Digital modules).
