IMPORTANT
To achieve SIL 2 with 1715 I/O modules in a ControlLogix system, you must use
these Add-On Instructions. The SIL 2 Add-On Instructions verify the validity of
data transferred between the ControlLogix controller and the 1715 modules via
the 1715-AENTR adapter. See Download and Import the Add-On Instructions
on page 229.
IMPORTANT
As you proceed with this chapter, be aware that when using the 1715 SIL 2
Add-On Instructions, you should not read inputs directly from the input table,
nor should you write directly to the output tags. You will read inputs from an
Add-On Instruction tag called ‘reconciled input data,’ and write outputs to an
Add-On Instruction tag called ‘requested output data.’
IMPORTANT
There is an Add-On Instruction required for the 1715-AENTR, as well. The status
data from the 1715-AENTR must be validated by using this Add-On Instruction.
IMPORTANT
You cannot view the logic of each Add-On Instruction because they are source
protected.
