Configuring F-FBs in STEP 7
This section applies only to fail-safe Mobile Panels in a PROFIsafe-based F-system. This
section describes the configuration using an example of an S7-300F-type controller. Other
compatible fail-safe controllers are configured in the same way.
Requirement
●
Fail-safe mode has been configured as described in the section
"Configuring a fail-safe Mobile Panel (Page 170)".
●
The PROFIsafe address has been set as described in the section
"Setting the PROFIsafe address (Page 129)".
Procedure
1.
Under the fail-safe controller in the device view, select "Safety Administration > F-runtime
group 1 [RTG1]".
2.
Set the maximum cycle time at the point indicated. A higher cycle time can improve the
stability of the PROFIsafe communication. The F-FBs for the Mobile Panel are placed in
the "Main safety block" FB in the following steps. A data block for group communication
can be optionally selected under "I-DB for main safety block".
3.
Double-click on "Program blocks > Main_Safety_RTG_1 [FB1]" under the fail-safe
controller.
4.
Select "Communication > Failsafe HMI Mobile Panels > -- KTP_Mobile --" to the right in
the instruction window.
