COMMUNICATION
The different communication modes can be enabled for fieldbus option board for different features.
There are different modes available for different setups:
• Normal mode, for most commonly used setups. Eight process data items.
• Normal extended mode, for setups that require 16 process data items.
• Fast mode, with low latency process data. 16 process data items.
• Fast safety mode, with safety "black channel". 16 process data items.
• Fast PROFIBUS mode, for backward compatibility. Eight process data items.
NOTE! Not all boards support all modes. For details, see Table 227.
The fast communication modes can be enabled to get minimum communication delay between
fieldbus and application.

Requirements for communication modes
The following table describes the required components for different communication modes.
Mentioned version or later is required.
Table 226. Requirements for different fieldbus communication modes
Control Board
Applications
* If safety option is configured to use a safety fieldbus, the Fast Safe mode is automatically enabled
regardless of used application. However, the availability of 16 process items is limited by the
application in use. Also, the process data application cycle is normally set to 10 ms, instead of 1 ms
for fast application.
