To add a new F-I/O to your System follow these steps:
• Configure the new F-I/O within HWCONFIG according to the manual, “How to
Modify the System during Operation wth CiR (handle it like a standard module)
• Calculate the Monitoring Time for this F-Module (see “Calculate the Monitoring
Time for Communication between the F-CPU and the F-I/O“) and use it to
update the Monitoring Time for this F-Module in HWCONFIG.
• Modify your safety program (add safety logic, channel driver and module driver
for this module)
• Deactivate safety mode (see “Deactivating Safety Mode“)
• Download your safety program
• Download your configuration via CiR
• Activate safety mode (see “Activating Safety Mode“)
Deleting F-I/O‘s via CiR
To delete an already existing F-I/O from your System follow these steps:
• Delete the F-I/O within HWCONFIG according to the manual, “How to Modify
the System during Operation with CiR“ (handle it like a standard module)
• Modify your safety program (delete safety logic, channel driver and module
driver for this module)
• Deactivate safety mode (see “Deactivating Safety Mode“)
• Download your safety program
• Download your configuration via CiR
• Activate safety mode (see “Activating Safety Mode“)
Note
You can only delete an existing F-I/O via CiR if the module was added to the
