Configuring Safety-Related I-Slave To I-Slave Communication - Siemens SIMATIC S7 Configuration And Programming Manual

1.1.4

Configuring Safety-Related I-Slave to I-Slave Communication

Overview
The manual describes safety-related master to master communication.
The following section describes the configuration of an additional safety-related
communication option, that is, safety-related communication between safety
programs in different F-CPUs. As in standard systems, safety-related
communication between the safety program of the F-CPUs of intelligent DP slaves
involves direct data exchange.
You do not need any additional hardware for I-slave to I-slave communication.
Communication by Means of F_SENDDP and F_RCVDP
Safety-related communication occurs by means of the F-application blocks
F_SENDDP and F_RCVDP that you used in the safety programs of the F-CPUs.
Configuring Address Areas
For every communication connection between two F-CPUs, you must configure
address areas in HW Config. In the figure below, each of the two F-CPUs is
supposed to be able to send and receive data.
