11957_uk Figure 45. System Redundancy overview OPTEA supports "S2" level of System Redundancy as well as Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) for redundant connectivity. S2 uses a single PROFINET interface (NAP = Network Access Point), and two SR-ARs (System Redundancy Application Relations = connections), one to each PN controller. Redundant PN controllers have parallel access to a SR PN device, but only one AR acts as a primary (SR-ARa) and the other is backup (SR-ARb).
IOC. During the transition, the input data is hold and the output data frozen to ensure a bumpless transition. OPTEA does not create a fault during this time if a backup connection is available. A fault is created after this time elapses and no Primary is available.

20 family Diagnostic messages are always sent from the PROFINET module (slot 1). Exception to this is that ® PROFIsafe diagnostics are sent from PROFIsafe module (slot 2). VACON faults are mapped to PROFINET IO alarms according to the following table: Table 101.
The option board communicates with the safety PLC via PROFINET. The exchanged data includes PROFIsafe data and non-safe process data. The OPTEA option board extracts the process data and the safety frame from the received message and forwards them. The process data is sent to the drive application, and the safety frame is sent to the Advanced safety option board.
The Advanced safety option board receives and sends the PROFIsafe safety frames and implements the configured safety functions. The Advanced safety option board can also interact with the drive ® application, which you can parameterise to react to safety functions. See VACON NXP Advanced Safety Options Operating Guide for more details.
