Device-Specific Limits
Description Limit Comment
Maximum number of synchronous
changes of chart inputs per task level
165 When the limit is exceeded, an error message is output by
the device. Consequently, the device starts monitoring.
The red ERROR-LED lights up.
Maximum number of chart outputs per
task level
150
Additional Limits
Additional limits

SFS_BEARB — —
1)
When the limit is exceeded, an error message is iisued by the device. Consequently, the device starts moni-
toring. The red ERROR-LED lights up.
2)
The following condition applies for the maximum number of timers: (2 · number of TIMER + number of
TIMER_SHORT) < 30. TIMER and TIMER_SHORT hence share the available timer resources within the frame of
this inequation. The limit does not apply to the LONG_TIMER.
3)
The time values for the blocks TIMER and TIMER_SHORT must not be selected shorter than the time resolu-
tion of the device of 10 ms, as then, the blocks will not then start with the starting pulse.
Maximum Number of TICKS in the Task Levels

When the sum of TICKS of all blocks exceeds the limits before-mentioned, an error message is output by
CFC.
