Chapter 1

Safety Application Requirements

The Compact GuardLogix controller system is certified for use in safety applications up to and including Safety Integrity Level (SIL) 3 and Performance Level (e) in which the de-energized state is the safe state. Safety application requirements include evaluating probability of failure rates (PFD and PFH), system reaction-time settings, and functional-verification tests that fulfill SIL 3/PLe criteria.
For SIL 3 and PLe safety system requirements, including functional validation test intervals, system reaction time, and PFD/PFH calculations, refer to the GuardLogix Controller Systems Safety Reference Manual, publication
1756-RM093
operating a Compact GuardLogix SIL 3, PLe safety system.
Compact GuardLogix-based SIL 3/PLe safety applications require the use of at least one safety network number (SNN) and a safety task signature. Both affect controller and I/O configuration and network communication.
Refer to the GuardLogix Controller Systems Safety Reference Manual, publication 1756-RM093
. You must read, understand, and fulfill these requirements prior to
, for details.

Safety Network Number

The safety network number (SNN) must be a unique number that identifies safety subnets. Each safety subnet that the controller uses for safety communication must have a unique SNN. Each CIP Safety device must also be configured with the safety subnet’s SNN. The SNN can be assigned automatically or manually.
Rockwell Automation Publication 1768-UM002C-EN-P - April 2012 11
Chapter 1 System Overview
For information on assigning the SNN, see Managing the Safety Network
Number (SNN) on page 39.

Safety Task Signature

The safety task signature consists of an ID number, date, and time that uniquely identifies the safety portion of a project. This includes safety logic, data, and configuration. The Compact GuardLogix system uses the safety task signature to determine the project’s integrity and to let you verify that the correct project is downloaded to the target controller. Creating, recording, and verifying the safety task signature is a mandatory part of the safety-application development process.

Distinguishing Between Standard and Safety Components

See Generate a Safety Task Signature
Slots in the Compact GuardLogix backplane may be populated with other CompactLogix I/O modules that are certified to the Low Voltage and EMC Directives. Refer to http://www.ab.com/certification/ce certificate for the Programmable Control – CompactLogix Product Family and determine which modules are certified.
You must create and document a clear, logical, and visible distinction between the safety and standard portions of the application. To aid in creating this distinction, RSLogix 5000 programming software features safety identification icons to identify the safety task, safety programs, safety routines, and safety components. In addition, the RSLogix 5000 software uses a safety class attribute that is visible whenever safety task, safety programs, safety routine, safety tag, or safety Add-On Instruction properties are displayed.
The controller does not allow writes to safety tag data from external HMI devices or via message instructions from peer controllers. RSLogix 5000 software can write safety tags when the Compact GuardLogix controller is safety-unlocked, does not have a safety task signature, and is operating without safety faults.
on page 90 for more information.
to find the CE
The 1768 CompactLogix Controllers User Manual, publication 1768-UM001 provides information on using 1768 CompactLogix controllers in standard (non-safety) applications.

HMI Devices

HMI devices can be used with Compact GuardLogix controllers. HMI devices can access standard tags just as with a standard controller. However, HMI devices cannot write to safety tags; safety tags are read-only for HMI devices.

CompactLogix System Distance Ratings
Because the 1768 CompactLogix power supply works with the controller to power a 1768 system, the distance rating in a 1768 CompactLogix system differs from that in a 1769 CompactLogix system.
In the 1768 system, the distance rating is the distance between 1769 I/O modules and the controller. In the 1769 system, the distance rating is the distance between 1769 I/O modules and the power supply.
Follow these requirements to determine proper placement of your 1768 controller, power supply, 1768 I/O modules, and 1769 I/O modules:
Place the 1768-L4xx controller so that it is the last module (furthest away
from the power supply) in the 1768 backplane.
The 1768 CompactLogix power supply distributes power from the right
side of the supply and must be the leftmost module in the system.
The local bank is powered by a 1768 power supply.
Up to eight 1769 I/O modules can reside in the local bank.
1768 slots are numbered right to left, starting with the controller as slot 0.
Up to two remote banks of 1769 I/O modules may be connected by using
1769-CRLx extension cables.
Remote banks are powered by a standard 1769 power supply.
Each I/O bank must have its own 1769 power supply.
1769 slots are numbered from left to right, starting with the controller as
slot 0.

IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT
Up to eight 1769 Compact I/O modules can reside on each side of a 1769
power supply in a remote bank. Consult the module’s specifications for its distance rating.
1769 power supplies must be separated from the 1768 series processor by a bus extension cable. Never put a 1769 power supply in the 1768 backplane or the controller will generate a major fault that cannot be cleared until you remove the 1769 power supply.
The type of controller determines the maximum number of 1768 modules
that can reside in the local bank and the maximum number of 1769 I/O modules that can reside in one local and up to two remote banks.

TIP

Update the Controller

The controllers ship without firmware. Controller firmware is packaged with RSLogix 5000 programming software. In addition, controller firmware is also available for download from the Rockwell Automation Technical Support website at: http://www.rockwellautomation.com/support/
.
When installing or updating controller firmware, do not interrupt the update process in any way. Interrupting the firmware update may result in an inoperable controller. Inoperable controllers must be returned to Rockwell Automation.
To install firmware, you can use any of the following.
Method Page
ControlFlash, version 8 or later, software that ships with RSLogix 5000 software 28 AutoFlash software that runs within RSLogix 5000 software 29 A 1784-CF64 or 1784-CF128 CompactFlash card with valid firmware already loaded 29
Updating your controller firmware via ControlFlash or AutoFlash software requires either a serial or other network connection to the controller.
Updating via an Ethernet connection is faster, but you must first install a 1768­ENBT Ethernet module to connect to the controller via the Ethernet network.
For information on installing, configuring, and operating a 1768-ENBT module, refer to the EtherNet/IP Modules in Logix5000 Control Systems User Manual, publication ENET-UM001
.

Install Firmware via ControlFlash Software

1. Make sure the network is connected.
2. Start ControlFlash software.

1. Create a project in RSLogix 5000 software by clicking the New button on
the main toolbar.
2. From the Type pull-down menu, choose a Compact GuardLogix
controller:
1768-L43S CompactLogix5343S Safety Controller
1768-L45S CompactLogix5345S Safety Controller
3. Enter the major revision of firmware for the controller.
4. Type a name for the controller.
When you create a project, the project name is the same as the name of the controller. However, you can rename either the project or the controller.
Rockwell Automation Publication 1768-UM002C-EN-P - April 2012 33
Chapter 3 Configure the Controller
5. Specify the folder in which to store the safety controller project.
6. For RSLogix 5000, version 20 or later, choose a Security Authority option.
For detailed information on security, refer to the Logix5000 Controllers Security Programming Manual, publication 1756-PM016
.
7. Click OK.
RSLogix 5000 software automatically creates a safety task and a safety program.
A main ladder logic safety routine called MainRoutine is also created within the safety program.
Figure 2 - Safety Task in the Controller Organizer
A red bar under the icon distinguishes safety programs and routines from standard project components in the RSLogix 5000 Controller Organizer.
When a new safety project is created, RSLogix 5000 software also automatically creates a time-based safety network number (SNN).
This SNN defines the Compact GuardLogix controller as a safety subnet. It can be viewed and modified via the General tab on the Controller Properties dialog box.
For most applications, this automatic, time-based SNN is sufficient. However, there are cases in which you might want to enter a specific SNN.

Handling I/O Module Replacement

The Safety tab of the Controller Properties dialog box lets you define how the controller handles the replacement of an I/O module in the system. This option determines whether the controller sets the safety network number (SNN) of an I/O module to which it has a connection and for which it has configuration data

Enable Time Synchronization

ATTENTION: Enable the Configure Always feature only if the entire
routable CIP Safety Control System is not being relied on to maintain SIL 3 during the replacement and functional testing of a module.
See Chapter
5, Add, Configure, Monitor, and Replace CIP Safety I/O for more
information.
In a Compact GuardLogix controller system, Time Synchronization must be enabled for the controller. To allow the controller to become the CST master, enable Time Synchronization on the Date/Time tab of the Controller Properties dialog box. Time Synchronization provides a standard mechanism to synchronize clocks across a network of distributed devices.
(1) The safety task signature is a number used to uniquely identify each project’s logic, data, and configuration, thereby protecting the
system’s safety integrity level (SIL). See Safety Task Signature information.

Chapter 4

The Safety Network

The CIP Safety protocol is an end-node to end-node safety protocol that allows routing of CIP Safety messages to and from CIP Safety devices through bridges, switches, and routers.
To maintain high integrity when routing through standard bridges, switches, or routers, each end node within a routable CIP Safety Control System must have a unique reference. This unique reference is a combination of a safety network number (SNN) and the node address of the network device.

Managing the Safety Network Number (SNN)

The SNN assigned to safety devices on a network segment must be unique. You must be sure that a unique SNN is assigned to each CIP Safety network that contains safety devices.
Multiple safety network numbers can be assigned to a CIP Safety subnet or a ControlBus chassis that contains more than one safety device. However,
for simplicity, we recommend that each CIP Safety subnet have one, and only one, unique SNN.
The SNN can be software-assigned (time-based) or user-assigned (manual). These two formats of the SNN are described in the following sections.
Rockwell Automation Publication 1768-UM002C-EN-P - April 2012 39
Chapter 4 Communicate over Networks
Time-based Safety Network Number
If the time-based format is selected, the SNN value that is generated represents the date and time at which the number was generated, according to the personal computer running the configuration software.
Figure 6 - Time-based Format
Manual Safety Network Number
If the manual format is selected, the SNN represents entered values from 1…9999 decimal.
Figure 7 - Manual Entry

Communicate over Networks Chapter 4
IMPORTANT

Assigning the Safety Network Number (SNN)

You can allow RSLogix 5000 software to automatically assign an SNN, or you can assign the SNN manually.
Automatic Assignment
When a new controller or module is created, a time-based SNN is automatically assigned via the configuration software. Subsequent new safety-module additions to the same CIP Safety network are assigned the same SNN defined within the lowest address on that CIP Safety network.
Manual Assignment
The manual option is intended for routable CIP Safety systems where the number of network subnets and interconnecting networks is small, and where users might like to manage and assign the SNN in a logical manner pertaining to their specific application.
See Changing the Safety Network Number (SNN)
If you assign an SNN manually, make sure that system expansion does not result in duplication of SNN and node address combinations.
on page 41.
Automatic Versus Manual
For typical users, the automatic assignment of an SNN is sufficient. However, manual manipulation of the SNN is required if the following is true:
Safety consumed tags are used.
The project consumes safety input data from a module whose
configuration is owned by some other device.
A safety project is copied to another hardware installation within the same
routable CIP Safety system.

Changing the Safety Network Number (SNN)

Before changing the SNN you must do the following:
Unlock the project, if it is safety-locked.
See Safety-lock the Controller
on page 88.
Delete the safety task signature, if one exists.

The master/slave network includes one controller configured as the master node and up to 254
slave nodes. Link slave nodes using modems or line drivers.
A master/slave network can have node numbers from 0...254. Each node must have a unique
node address. Also, for your link to be a network, it must consist of one master and one slave station.
When there are multiple slave stations on the network, link slave stations by using modems or
line drivers to the master. When you have a single slave station on the network, you do not need a modem to connect the slave station to the master. You can configure the control parameters for no handshaking. You can connect 2...255 nodes to a single link. In DF1 Slave mode, a controller uses DF1 half-duplex protocol.
One node is designated as the master and controls who has access to the link. All of the other
nodes are slave stations and must wait for permission from the master before transmitting.
Compatible with SLC 500 and MicroLogix 1500 controllers.
This mode supports Master and Slave, and Store and Forward modes.
This requires your program to use ASCII instructions to read and write data from and to an ASCII
device.
This multi-master, token-passing network permits programming and peer-to-peer messaging.

See page 57
The assignment of a time-based SNN is automatic when adding new Safety I/O modules. Subsequent safety-module additions to the same network are assigned the same SNN defined within the lowest address on that CIP Safety network.
For most applications, the automatic, time-based SNN is sufficient. However, there are cases in which manipulation of an SNN is required.
See Assigning the Safety Network Number (SNN)
In RSLogix 5000 software, version 20 or later, you can configure EtherNet/IP I/O modules to use unicast connections.

Setting the Connection Reaction Time Limit

The Connection Reaction Time Limit is the maximum age of safety packets on the associated connection. If the age of the data used by the consuming device exceeds the Connection Reaction Time Limit, a connection fault occurs. The Connection Reaction Time Limit is determined by the following equations:
Input Connection Reaction Time Limit = Input RPI x [Timeout Multiplier + Network Delay Multiplier]
Output Connection Reaction Time Limit = Safety Task Period x [Timeout Multiplier + Network Delay Multiplier - 1]
The Connection Reaction Time Limit is shown on the Safety tab of the Module Properties dialog box.
Figure 12 - Connection Reaction Time Limit
Rockwell Automation Publication 1768-UM002C-EN-P - April 2012 57
Chapter 5 Add, Configure, Monitor, and Replace CIP Safety I/O

Specify the Requested Packet Interval (RPI)

The RPI specifies the period at which data updates over a connection. For example, an input module produces data at the RPI that you assign.
For safety input connections, you can set the RPI on the Safety tab of the Module Properties dialog box. The RPI is entered in 1 ms increments, with a range of 1…100 ms. The default is 10 ms.
The Connection Reaction Time Limit is adjusted immediately when the RPI is changed via RSLogix 5000 software.
Figure 13 - Requested Packet Interval
For safety output connections, the RPI is fixed at the safety task period. If the corresponding Connection Time Reaction Limit is not satisfactory, you can adjust the safety task period via the Safety Task Properties dialog box.

View the Maximum Observed Network Delay

When the Compact GuardLogix controller receives a safety packet, the software records the maximum observed network delay. For safety inputs, the Maximum Observed Network Delay displays the round-trip delay from the input module to the controller and the acknowledge back to the input module. For safety outputs, it displays the round-trip delay from the controller to the output module and the acknowledge back to the controller. The Maximum Observed Network Delay is shown on the Safety tab of the Module Properties dialog box. When online, you can reset the Maximum Observed Network Delay by clicking Reset.

Figure 14 - Resetting the Max Observed Network Delay
The actual Maximum Network Delay time from the producer to the consumer is less than the value displayed in the Maximum Network Delay field on the Safety tab. In general, the actual maximum message delay is approximately one-half the Maximum Network Delay value that is displayed.

Setting the Advanced Connection Reaction Time Limit Parameters

Timeout Multiplier
The Timeout Multiplier determines the number of RPIs to wait for a packet before declaring a connection timeout. This translates into the number of messages that may be lost before a connection error is declared.
For example, a Timeout Multiplier of 1 indicates that messages must be received during every RPI interval. A Timeout Multiplier of 2 indicates that 1 message may be lost as long as at least 1 message is received in 2 times the RPI (2 x RPI).
Rockwell Automation Publication 1768-UM002C-EN-P - April 2012 59
Chapter 5 Add, Configure, Monitor, and Replace CIP Safety I/O
EXAMPLE
Network Delay Multiplier
The Network Delay Multiplier defines the message transport time that is enforced by the CIP Safety protocol. The Network Delay Multiplier specifies the round-trip delay from the producer to the consumer and the acknowledge back to the producer. You can use the Network Delay Multiplier to reduce or increase the Connection Reaction Time Limit in cases where the enforced message transport time is significantly less or more than the RPI. For example, adjusting the Network Delay Multiplier may be helpful when the RPI of an output connection is the same as a lengthy safety task period.
For cases where the input RPI or output RPI are relatively slow or fast as compared to the enforced message delay time, the Network Delay Multiplier can be approximated by using one of the two methods.
Method 1: Use the ratio between the input RPI and the safety task period. Use this method only under all of the following conditions:
If the path or delay is approximately equal to the output path or delay.
The input RPI has been configured so that the actual input message
transport time is less than the input RPI.
The safety task period is slow relative to the Input RPI.
Under these conditions, the Output Network Delay Multiplier can be approximated as follows:
Input Network Delay Multiplier x [Input RPI ÷ Safety Task Period]
Calculate the Approximate Output Network Delay Multiplier
If: Input RPI = 10 ms
Input Network Delay Multiplier = 200% Safety Task Period = 20 ms
Then, the Output Network Delay Multiplier equals: 200% x [10 ÷ 20] = 100%
Method 2: Use the Maximum Observed Network Delay. If the system is run for an extended period of time through its worst-case loading conditions, the Network Delay Multiplier can be set from the Maximum Observed Network Delay. This method can be used on an input or output connection. After the system has been run for an extended period of time through its worst-case loading conditions, record the Maximum Observed Network Delay.

Add, Configure, Monitor, and Replace CIP Safety I/O Chapter 5
EXAMPLE
The Network Delay Multiplier can be approximated by the following equation:
[Maximum Observed Network Delay + Margin_Factor] ÷ RPI
Calculate the Network Delay Multiplier from Maximum Observed Network Delay
If: RPI = 50 ms
Maximum Observed Network Delay = 20 ms Margin_Factor = 10
Then, the Network Delay Multiplier equals: [20 + 10] ÷ 50 = 60%

Understanding the Configuration Signature

Each safety device has a unique configuration signature, which defines the module configuration. The configuration signature is composed of an ID number, date, and time, and is used to verify a module’s configuration.

Configuration via RSLogix 5000 Software

When the I/O module is configured by using RSLogix 5000 software, the configuration signature is generated automatically. You can view and copy the configuration signature via the Safety tab on the Module Properties dialog box.

Different Configuration Owner (listen only connection)

When the I/O module configuration is owned by another controller, you need to copy the module configuration signature from its owner’s project and paste it into the Safety tab of the Module Properties dialog box.
If the module is configured for inputs only, you can copy and paste the configuration signature. If the module has safety outputs, they are owned by the controller that owns the configuration, and the configuration signature text box is unavailable.

Reset Safety I/O Module Ownership

Addressing Safety I/O Data

When RSLogix 5000 software is online, the Safety tab of the Module Properties dialog box displays the current configuration ownership. When the opened project owns the configuration, Local is displayed. When a second device owns the configuration, Remote is displayed, along with the safety network number (SNN), and node address or slot number of the configuration owner. Communication error is displayed if the module read fails.
When online, you can reset the module to its out-of­box configuration by clicking Reset Ownership.
You cannot reset ownership when there are pending edits to the module properties, when a safety task signature exists, or when safety-locked.
When you add a module to the I/O configuration folder, RSLogix 5000 software automatically creates controller-scoped tags for the module.
I/O information is presented as a set of tags. Each tag uses a structure of data, depending on the type and features of the I/O module. The name of a tag is based on the module’s name in the system.

The Safety Task

When you create a safety controller project, RSLogix 5000 software automatically creates a safety task with a safety program and a main (safety) routine.
Figure 18 - Safety Task in the Controller Organizer
Within the safety task, you can use multiple safety programs, composed of multiple safety routines. The Compact GuardLogix controller supports one safety task. The safety task cannot be deleted.
You cannot schedule standard programs or execute standard routines within the safety task.

Safety Task Period Specification

The safety task is a periodic timed task. You select the task priority and watchdog time via the Task Properties - Safety Task dialog box. Open the dialog box by right-clicking the Safety Task and choosing Properties.
Figure 19 - Configuring the Safety Task Period
74 Rockwell Automation Publication 1768-UM002C-EN-P - April 2012
Develop Safety Applications Chapter 6
The safety task should be a high priority. You specify the safety task period (in ms) and the safety task watchdog (in ms). The safety task period is the period at which the safety task executes. The safety task watchdog is the maximum time allowed from the start of safety task execution to its completion.
The safety task period is limited to a maximum of 500 ms and cannot be modified online. Be sure that the safety task has enough time to finish logic execution before it is triggered again. If a safety task watchdog timeout occurs, a nonrecoverable safety fault is generated in the safety controller.
The safety task period directly affects system reaction time.
The GuardLogix Controller Systems Safety Reference Manual, publication
1756-RM093
, provides detailed information on calculating system reaction time.

Safety Task Execution

The safety task executes in the same manner as a standard periodic task, with the following exceptions:
The safety task does not begin executing until the primary controller and
internal safety partner establish their control partnership. (Standard tasks begin executing as soon as the controller transitions to Run mode.)
All safety input tags (inputs, consumed, and mapped) are updated and
frozen at the beginning of safety task execution.
See page 86
for information on safety tag mapping.
Safety output tag (output and produced) values are updated at the
conclusion of safety task execution.

Safety Programs

Safety Routines

Safety programs have all the attributes of standard programs, except that they can only be scheduled in the safety task and can only contain safety components. Safety programs can only contain safety routines, one of which must be designated as the main routine, and one of which may be designated as the fault routine.
Safety programs cannot contain standard routines or standard tags.
Safety routines have all the attributes of standard routines, except that they exist only in a safety program. At this time, only ladder diagram is supported for safety routines.
RSLogix 5000 software uses a watermark feature to visually distinguish a safety routine from a standard routine.

Safety Tags

76 Rockwell Automation Publication 1768-UM002C-EN-P - April 2012
A tag is an area of a controller’s memory where data is stored. Tags are the basic mechanism for allocating memory, referencing data from logic, and monitoring data. Safety tags have all the attributes of standard tags with the addition of mechanisms certified to provide SIL 3 data integrity.
When you create a tag, you assign the following properties:
Name
Description (optional)
Tag t yp e
Data type
Scope
Class
Style
External Access
You can also specify if the tag value should be a constant.

Data types can be combined to form structures. A structure provides a unique data type that matches a specific need. Within a structure, each individual data type is called a member. Like tags, members have a name and data type. You can create your own structures, as user-defined data types.
Logix controllers contain predefined data types for use with specific instructions.
Only these data types are permitted for safety tags.

Scope

A tag’s scope determines where you can access the tag data. When you create a tag, you define it as a controller tag (global data) or a program tag for a specific safety or standard program (local data). Safety tags can be controller-scoped or safety program-scoped.
Controller-scoped Tags
When safety tags are controller-scoped, all programs have access to the safety data. Tags must be controller-scoped if they are used in the following:
More than one program in the project
To produce or consume data
To communicate with a PanelView/HMI terminal
In safety tag mapping
See Safety Tag Mapping
Controller-scoped safety tags can be read, but not written to, by standard routines.
on page 86 for more information.
Controller-scoped safety tags are readable by any standard routine. The safety tag’s update rate is based on the safety task period.
Tags associated with Safety I/O and produced or consumed safety data must be controller-scoped safety tags. For produced/consumed safety tags, you must create a user-defined data type with the first member of the tag structure reserved for the status of the connection. This member is a predefined data type called CONNECTION_STATUS.

CONNECTION_STATUS member Provides instructions for creating user-defined
data types
Program-scoped Tags
When tags are program-scoped, the data is isolated from the other programs. Reuse of program-scoped tag names is permitted between programs.
Safety-program-scoped safety tags can only be read by or written to via a safety routine scoped in the same safety program.
Rockwell Automation Publication 1768-UM002C-EN-P - April 2012 79
Chapter 6 Develop Safety Applications

Class

Tags can be classified as standard or safety. Tags classified as safety tags must have a data type that is permitted for safety tags.
When you create program-scoped tags, the class is automatically specified, depending upon whether the tag was created in a standard or safety program.
When you create controller-scoped tags, you must manually select the tag class.

Constant Value

When you designate a tag as a constant value, it cannot be modified by logic in the controller, or by an external application such as an HMI. Constant value tags cannot be forced.
RSLogix 5000 software can modify constant standard tags, and safety tags provided a safety task signature is not present. Safety tags cannot be modified if a safety task signature is present.

External Access

External Access defines the level of access that is allowed for external devices, such as an HMI, to see or modify tag values. Access via RSLogix 5000 software is not affected by this setting. The default value is read/write.
Table 20 - External Access Levels
External Access Setting Description

Produced/Consumed Safety Tags

To transfer safety data between GuardLogix controllers, you use produced and consumed safety tags. Produced and consumed tags require connections. The default connection type for produced and consumed tags is unicast in version 19 and later of RSLogix 5000 software.
Table 21 - Produced and Consumed Connections
Tag Connection Description
Produced A Compact GuardLogix controller can produce (send) safety tags to other 1756 or 1768
GuardLogix controllers. The producing controller uses a single connection for each consumer.
Consumed Compact GuardLogix controllers can consume (receive) safety tags from other 1756 or 1768
GuardLogix controllers. Each consumed tag consumes one connection.
Produced and consumed safety tags are subject to the following restrictions:
Only controller-scoped safety tags can be shared.
Produced and consumed safety tags are limited to 128 bytes.
Produced/consumed tag pairs must be of the same user-defined data type.
The first member of that user-defined data type must be the predefined
CONNECTION_STATUS data type.
The requested packet interval (RPI) of the consumed safety tag must
match the safety task period of the producing GuardLogix controller.
To properly configure produced and consumed safety tags to share data between peer safety controllers, you must properly configure the peer safety controllers, produce a safety tag, and consume a safety tag, as described below.

Configure the Peer Safety Controllers’ Safety Network Numbers

The peer safety controller is subject to the same configuration requirements as the local safety controller. The peer safety controller must also have a safety network number (SNN).

8. Enter the requested packet interval (RPI) for the connection in 1 ms
increments. The default is 20 ms.
The RPI specifies the period at which data updates over a connection. The RPI of the consumed safety tag must match the safety task period of the producing safety project.
The Connection Reaction Time Limit is the maximum age of safety packets on the associated connection. For simple timing constraints, an acceptable Connection Reaction Time Limit can be achieved by adjusting the RPI.
The Max Network Delay is the maximum observed transport delay from the time the data was produced until the time the data was received. When online, you can reset the Max Network Delay by clicking Reset Max.
9. If the Connection Reaction time limit is acceptable, click OK; or for more
complex requirements, click Advanced to set the Advanced Connection Reaction Time Limit parameters.
The Timeout Multiplier determines the number of RPIs to wait for a packet before declaring a connection timeout.
The Network Delay Multiplier defines the message transport time that is enforced by the CIP Safety protocol. The Network Delay Multiplier specifies the round-trip delay from the producer to the consumer and back to the producer. You can use the Network Delay Multiplier to increase or decrease the Connection Reaction Time Limit.

Safety Tag Mapping

Controller-scoped standard tags cannot be directly accessed by a safety routine. To allow standard tag data to be used within safety task routines, the Compact GuardLogix controllers provide a safety tag mapping feature that lets standard tag values be copied into safety task memory.

Restrictions

Safety tag mapping is subject to these restrictions:
The safety tag and standard tag pair must be controller-scoped.
The data types of the safety and standard tag pair must match.
Alias tags are not allowed.
Mapping must take place at the whole tag level. For example, myTimer.pre
is not allowed if myTimer is a TIMER tag.
A mapping pair is one standard tag mapped to one safety tag.
You may not map a standard tag to a safety tag that has been designated as
a constant.
Tag mapping cannot be modified when the following is true:The project is safety-locked.A safety task signature exists.The keyswitch is in RUN position.A nonrecoverable safety fault exists.
ATTENTION: When using standard data in a safety routine, you are responsible for providing a reliable means of ensuring that the data is used in an appropriate manner. Using standard data in a safety tag does not make it safety data. You must not directly control a SIL 3/PLe safety output with standard tag data.

RSLogix 5000 software determines whether you can go online with a target controller based on whether the offline project is new or whether changes occurred in the offline project. If the project is new, you must first download the project to the controller. If changes occurred to the project, you are prompted to upload or download. If no changes occurred, you can go online to monitor the execution of the project.
A number of factors affect these processes, including Project to Controller Match feature, the safety status and faults, the existence of a safety task signature, and the safety-lock/-unlock status of the project and the controller.

TIP

Project to Controller Matching

The Project to Controller Match feature affects the download, upload, and go online processes of standard and safety projects.
If the Project to Controller Match feature is enabled in the offline project, RSLogix 5000 software compares the serial number of the controller in the offline project to that of the connected controller. If they do not match, you must cancel the download/upload, connect to the correct controller, or confirm that you are connected to the correct controller, which updates the serial number in the project to match the target controller.

Firmware Revision Matching

Firmware revision matching affects the download process. If the revision of the controller does not match the revision of the project, you are prompted to update the firmware of the controller. RSLogix 5000 software lets you update the firmware as part of the download sequence.
To update the firmware of the controller, first install a firmware upgrade kit. An upgrade kit ships on a supplemental CD along with RSLogix 5000 software.
You can also upgrade the firmware by choosing ControlFLASH™ from the Tools menu in RSLogix 5000 software.

Safety Status/Faults

Uploading program logic and going online is allowed regardless of safety status. Safety status and faults affect the download process only.
You can view the safety status via the Safety tab on the Controller Properties dialog box.

Safety Task Signature and Safety-locked and -unlocked Status

The existence of a safety task signature and the safety-locked or -unlocked status of the controller affect both the upload and download processes.
On Upload
If the controller has a safety task signature, the safety task signature and the safety task lock status are uploaded with the project. For example, if the project in the controller was safety-unlocked, the offline project remains safety-unlocked following the upload, even if it was locked prior to the upload.
Following an upload, the safety task signature in the offline project matches the controller’s safety task signature.
On Download
The existence of a safety task signature, and the controller’s safety-lock status, determines whether or not a download can proceed.
