FailSafe Setting

Overview of fail-safe function

  The output from any output terminal can be changed when communication is linked down or there is no access for a fixed time.
  It is also possible to output up to 8 patterns of data in turn or to output setting patterns repeatedly.

  The output terminal used with the fail-safe function can also be used normally like other output terminals.

  As for the output terminals used with the fail-safe function, normal output can not be performed while outputting with the fail-safe function.
  It is necessary to execute the reset function or restart the device to reset the fail-safe state and return to normal operation.

  This utility can also reset the fail-safe state. Please refer to the following link.

Devices that can use fail-safe function

  For devices that can use this function, refer to "Device Connection".

 

Use case of the fail-safe function, examples of setting

  The following are use cases of this function. please refer.

  Use case 1 and Use case 2 can be realized only by setting of "FailSafe" tab.
  For Use case 3, check "Output Multi Data" and also make settings on "FailSafe(MultiData)" tab.

  Use case 1   Notify other equipment when failure occurs

Examples of setting 1-1

  Set output terminal 0 output to 1

 

  

Examples of setting 1-2

  Set the output terminal 0 output to 0

  and the output terminal 3 output to 1

  

 

  Use case 2   Change the output to 0 when failure occurs

Examples of setting 2-1

  Set output terminals 0 to 3 to 0

  

Examples of setting 2-2

  Set output terminals 0, 5, 6, and 7 to 0

  

 

  Use case 3   Operate LED etc. when failure occurs

Examples of setting 3-1

  Turn output terminal 0 ON / OFF 10 times

  at 1-second intervals

  

 

  

Examples of setting 3-2

  The output terminals 6 and 7 are alternately

  turned ON / OFF at intervals of 2 seconds

  

 

  

  *In the case of DIO-0404LY-WQ, the number of output terminals is 4, so Example of setting 2-2 and 3-2 can not be performed.
  *For DIO-1616LN-ETH and DIO-1616RYN-ETH, please input "FailSafe OutBit" and "Output Data" with 4 digits. (Enter "0001" for "1")
