Block information and comments

General
In SIMATIC Safety, the Function Block Diagram (FBD) and Ladder Diagram (LAD)
programming languages are available to you. Both languages provide the option to
store block and network comments.
Comments have no influence on the signature of F-FBs/F-FCs and can therefore
also be edited after acceptance.
Recommendation
In the block comment of your block, enter formal information about the block with
the aid of the following template.
If you implement diagnostic functions relevant to the PL / SILCL of another
subsystem (Detect or Evaluate) in an F-FB, include normative parameters such as
PL / SILCL and category (according to ISO 13849-1), DC measures, CCF
measures, etc. in the block comment.
After successful acceptance of the block, also include the signature in the block
comment. This makes it easier to track functional changes of the block.
