8.1 Overview
8.1.1 Fail-Safe
Blocks
All the fail-safe blocks are contained in the Failsafe Blocks library in the catalog of
libraries
.
If possible, the F-Blocks are assigned to the existing families of standard blocks in
the catalog of the blocks used
. Since the names of the F-Blocks always
begin with "F_", they appear together as a group.
Fail-safe blocks are available in the following block families:
DRIVER
Driver Blocks for F-I/Os
COM_FUNC
Blocks for F Communication Between CPUs
F_SYSTEM
F system blocks
CONVERT
Blocks for converting data between standard and
safety sections
F_CTRL
F Control Blocks
BIT_LGC
Logic blocks with the BOOL data type
COMPARE
Comparison blocks for two input values of the same
type
FLIPFLOP
Flipflop blocks
IEC_TC
IEC pulse and counter blocks
IMPULS
Pulse blocks
MATH_INT
Arithmetic blocks with the INT data type
MATH_FP
Arithmetic blocks with the REAL data type
MULTIPLX
Multiplex blocks
