Specifications Appendix A
The overall monitoring time to evaluate a fault and initiate a system response,
after the occurrence of a recoverable fault must consider any specific-fault
processing times depending on the I/O evaluation method and configured input
filter times. Table 2 6
shows the response time for specific recoverable faults, if the
safety function is not demanded, and the required settings of SMF and SOF to
enable the proper fault evaluation method.

Demand of the Safety Function

Cross loop fault Inputs: 2 N.C.
Pulse Testing: 2 Sources
3 s
Short circuit fault Inputs: 1 N.C., or 2 N.C.
Pulse Testing: 1 Source, 2 Sources

Reset/restart timing fault Default: 0.25…3 s 0 s
(1)
(1) A Reset/Restart Timing Fault can only occur when safety outputs are OFF, so there is no impact on the safety response time
Non-retriggerable timer fault Retriggerable: Disabled Configured time delay
(2)
(2) The maximum of the configured delay must be considered. The remaining time at occurrence of fault will lapse.

(3) The synchronization time between the Muting Sensors, and between Muting Sensor can be set individually. The longest
synchronization must be considered.
