Transfer times for input and output signals:
• Central expansion
Time for inputs R1 to R12:
30 ms + 1 cycle time
• Time for outputs S1 to S6 (S8):
15 ms + 1 cycle
• Remote expansion
Time for inputs R1 to R12:
80 ms + 1 cycle time
• Time for outputs S1 to S6 (S8):
40 ms + 1 cycle
Function monitoring of expansion units
If the power supply of the expansion unit is not present, no 
connection can be established between it and basic unit. The 
expansion inputs R1 to R12, R15, R16 are incorrectly 
processed in the basic unit and show status 0. It cannot be 
assured that the outputs S1 to S8 are transferred to the 
expansion unit.
The status of the internal input I14 of the basic unit indicates 
the status of the expansion unit:
• I14 = “0”: expansion unit is functional
• I14 = “1”: expansion unit is not functional
j
Warning!
Ensure the continuous monitoring of CL expansion devices 
in order to prevent switching faults in machines or 
systems.
h
When the power supply is switched on, basic units and 
expansion devices may require different power up times to 
reach full functionality. If the basic unit is powered up 
faster, the internal monitoring input I14 will have status 1, 
indicating that an expansion device is not functional.
