Security levels
●
Fault tolerance parameters
Note
16 bit memory bytes and 8 counters are set by default in retentive memory, i.e., they are
not deleted at a CPU restart.
Parameter assignment tool
You can set the individual CPU parameters using "HW Config" in STEP 7.
Note
If you modify the parameters listed below, the operating system initializes the following:
Size of the process input image
Size of the process output image
Size of the local data
Number of diagnostic buffer entries
Communication resources
This involves the following initialization actions:
Data blocks are initialized with the load values
Bit memories, timers, counters, inputs and outputs are deleted, regardless of their
retentivity setting (0).
DBs generated by SFC will be deleted
Permanently configured, basic communication connections are shut down
All run levels are initialized.
Further settings
●
The rack number of a fault-tolerant CPU, 0 or 1
Use the selector switch on the rear panel of the CPU to change the rack number.
●
The operating mode of a fault-tolerant CPU: Stand-alone or redundant mode
For information on how to change the operating mode of a fault-tolerant CPU, refer to
Appendix Stand-alone operation (Page 447).
