The buffer battery ensures that specified data areas, flags, timers and counters are re-
tained retentively.
Bay controllers are devices with control and monitoring functions without protective
functions.
Bit pattern indication is a processing function by means of which items of digital
process information applying across several inputs can be detected together in paral-
lel and processed further. The bit pattern length can be specified as 1, 2, 3 or 4 bytes.
→ Bit pattern indication (Bitstring Of x Bit), x designates the length in bits (8, 16, 24 or
32 bits).

Continuous Function Chart. CFC is a graphical editor with which a program can be
created and configured by using ready-made blocks.
Blocks are parts of the user program delimited by their function, their structure or their
purpose.
A rapidly intermittent input (for example, due to a relay contact fault) is switched off
after a configurable monitoring time and can thus not generate any further signal
changes. The function prevents overloading of the system when a fault arises.
Combination devices are bay devices with protection functions and a control display.
From DIGSI V4.6 onward, up to 32 compatible SIPROTEC 4 devices can communi-
cate with one another in an Inter Relay Communication combination (IRC combina-
tion). Which device exchanges which information is defined with the help of the com-
bination matrix.
A communications branch corresponds to the configuration of 1 to n users that com-
municate by means of a common bus.
The communication reference describes the type and version of a station in commu-
nication by PROFIBUS.
