Step 7: Modify Hardware - Siemens SIMATIC PCS 7 System Manual

System modifications during redundant operation
10.4 Removal of components
Result
The reserve CPU links up and is updated. The fault-tolerant system is operating with the new
hardware configuration in redundant system mode.
Note
Any set up access right is not canceled until you stop the SIMATIC Manager. You should
reset the access right once again to prevent unauthorized access. You reset the access right
in the SIMATIC Manager with the menu command PLC > Access Rights > Cancel.

1) No longer included in the hardware configuration, but still plugged in
2) Central modules are first reset. Output modules briefly output 0 during this time (instead of the
configured substitute or hold values).
Reaction to monitoring timeout
If one of the monitored times exceeds the configured maximum, the update is canceled. The
fault-tolerant system remains in single mode with the previous master CPU and, assuming
certain conditions are met, attempts the link-up and update later. For additional information,
refer to section Time monitoring (Page 117).

Step 7: Modify hardware

Starting situation
The fault-tolerant system is operating with the new hardware configuration in redundant
system mode.
Procedure
1. Disconnect all the sensors and actuators from the components you want to remove.
2. Unplug modules of the one-sided I/Os that are no longer required from the racks.
