Function Description Additional information
The F-CPU is certified for use in safety mode up to:
• Safety class (Safety Integrity Level) SIL 3 according to IEC
61508:2010
• Performance Level (PL) e and Category 4 according to ISO
13849-1:2006 or according to EN ISO 13849-1:2008
An additional password protection for the F-configuration and safety
program is set up for IT security.
Besides the F-CPU, SINAMICS Integrated also has integrated safety
functions.

CPU-integrated system
diagnostics
The system automatically creates alarms for the system diagnostics of
the CPU and outputs the alarms via a PG/PC, HMI device or Web serv
er. System diagnostics information is also available when the CPU is
in STOP mode.

Integrated web server The web server lets you access the CPU data over a network. Evalu
ations, diagnostics, and modifications are thus possible over long dis
tances. Monitoring and evaluation is possible without STEP7; all you
need is a Web browser. Make sure that you take appropriate meas
ures (e.g. limiting network access, using firewalls) to protect the CPU
from being compromised.

Integrated trace
functionality
Trace functionality supports you in troubleshooting and/or optimizing
the user program.
You record device tags and evaluate the recordings with the trace
and logic analyzer function. Tags are, for example, drive parameters
or system and user tags of a CPU.
The device saves the recordings. You can read out and permanently
save the recordings with the configuration system (ES), if required.
The trace and logic analyzer function is therefore suitable for monit
oring highly dynamic processes.

OPC UA With OPCUA, you can exchange data via an open and manufacturer-
neutral communication protocol. The CPU can act as an OPCUA DA
server. The CPU acting as the OPCUA server can communicate with
OPCUA clients.
The OPCUA Companion Specification allows methods to be specified
uniformly and independently of the manufacturer. Using these spe
cified methods, you can easily integrate devices from various manu
facturers into your plants and production processes.

Configuration control You can use configuration control to operate different real hardware
configurations with a configured maximum configuration of the
hardware. This means especially in series machine manufacturing
you have the option of operating/configuring different configuration
variants of a machine with a single project.
