TwinSAFE reaction times

The TwinSAFE terminals form a modular safety system that exchanges safety-oriented data via the Safety-
over-EtherCAT protocol. This chapter is intended to help you determine the system's reaction time from the
change of signal at the sensor to the reaction at the actuator.
Typical reaction time
The typical reaction time is the time that is required to transmit information from the sensor to the actuator, if
the overall system is working without error in normal operation.
