Setting the Safety Times
Explained in the following are the actions for setting the safety times in the
failsafe programmable controller.
Proceed as follows to determine the SINEC L1 safety time for receiving for
an S5-95F.
Step
Action
Meaning
1
Verify the condition for the SINEC L1 safety
time for receiving, using the formula on Page
5-14.
The calculated value must be less than the
SINEC L1 safety time for receiving.
2
Subtract the local cycle time for receiving of
the S5-95F from the specified SINEC L1
safety time for receiving.
The local cycle time for receiving must be
subtracted from the SINEC L1 safety time,
because the received messages will be inter-
mediately stored in the CP 541.
3
Round this time down to the next multiple of
100 ms.
You can only specify the receive safety time
in COM 95F in multiples of 100 ms.
4
Enter this value as SINEC L1 safety time for
receiving in COM 95F.
–
Proceed as follows to determine the SINEC L1 safety time for sending for an
S5-95F.
Step
Action
Meaning
1
Calculate the local cycle time for sending.
See Section 5.3.2.
2
Double this time.
This replaces condition 1 in the manual:
S5-95F Programmable Controller
3
Verify the conditions for S5-95F.
S5-95F Programmable Controller,
SINEC L1 safety time for sending.
4
Round up the resultant time to the next mul-
tiple of 100 ms.
See the manual: S5-95F Programmable Con-
troller, SINEC L1 safety time for sending
(conditions 2-4).
5
Enter this value in COM 95F.
