Note
Please note that the Excel files for calculating the maximum response times (
s7fcotia.xls
and
s7ftimea.xls
) included with the
S7 Distributed Safety
and
S7 F/FH Systems
option packages
already support calculation of the extension of the "Maximum response time in the event of a
fault" by the programmed discrepancy time.
Maximum response time of the EM 4 F-DI/3 F-DO DC24V PROFIsafe
Formula for calculating the maximum response time if there is no fault:
maximum response time
without a fault = T
max
+ input delay + short-circuit test time*
*: Short-circuit test time = 2 x input delay
Parameters for the input delay and the short-circuit test are assigned in
STEP 7
.

Maximum response time if a fault occurs:
The table below contains the maximum response times of the F-DI/F-DO module when a
fault occurs, depending on the parameter settings in
STEP 7
and on the sensor evaluation.

1oo2 evaluation*
Input Delay 3 ms
Short-circuit test deactivated 14 ms
Short-circuit test activated 22 ms
*: The response times with 1oo2 evaluation also depend on the configured discrepancy behavior:
Provide 0 value: The times defined in the table above apply.
Provide last valid value: The times in the table above are extended by the programmed discrepancy
time.
