4 Safety Function Blocks
4 - 62
NX-series Safety Control Unit Instructions Reference Manual (Z931)
Note “X” in “S_ModeX” and “S_ModeXSel” indicates a number between 0 and 7.
S_Mode4 SAFEBOOL TRUE or FALSE FALSE A constant or a variable. It is input 4 from the mode selection
switch.
FALSE: No request was made by the operator to select mode
4.
TRUE: A request was made by the operator to select mode 4.
S_Mode5 SAFEBOOL TRUE or FALSE FALSE A constant or a variable. It is input 5 from the mode selection
switch.
FALSE: No request was made by the operator to select mode
5.
TRUE: A request was made by the operator to select mode 5.
S_Mode6 SAFEBOOL TRUE or FALSE FALSE A constant or a variable. It is input 6 from the mode selection
switch.
FALSE: No request was made by the operator to select mode
6.
TRUE: A request was made by the operator to select mode 6.
S_Mode7 SAFEBOOL TRUE or FALSE FALSE A constant or a variable. It is input 7 from the mode selection
switch.
FALSE: No request was made by the operator to select mode
7.
TRUE: A request was made by the operator to select mode 7.
S_Unlock SAFEBOOL TRUE or FALSE FALSE A constant or a variable. It locks or unlocks the selected mode.
FALSE: The actual S_ModeXSel output is locked, so the
S_ModeXSel output will not change even if the S_ModeX input
has changed when S_SetMode changes to TRUE.
TRUE: The mode can be changed because the selected
S_ModeXSel output is not locked.
S_SetMode SAFEBOOL TRUE or FALSE FALSE A constant or a variable. If AutoSetMode is FALSE, this variable
executes the selected mode change.
TRUE: The selected mode is set when this variable changes to
TRUE.
FALSE: If AutoSetMode is TRUE, a constant FALSE is set.
When the operator changes the mode selection switch,
S_AnyModeSel and S_ModeXSel change to FALSE. The mode
change is executed when S_ModeXSel changes to TRUE as
the result of S_SetMode changing to TRUE.
AutoSet-
Mode
BOOL TRUE or FALSE FALSE A constant. It sets mode confirmation.
FALSE: To change the mode, the operator must confirm the
change with the S_SetMode input.
TRUE: Even if the operator does not confirm the change with
the S_SetMode, the S_ModeXSel output will change automati-
cally when the S_ModeX input changes. (However, the opera-
tion is the same as for FALSE if the mode is locked with
S_Unlock.)

IME Depends on data
type.
T#0ms A constant. It is the maximum allowable time to change the
selection input.
