NetVarSender

Library: SafetyNetVar

Tip

The version of the function block as described here corresponds to the latest version of the function block in Version list of function blocks.

The NetVarSender function block can be used in the application to activate and deactivate the network variable. To do this, the corresponding instance of the NetVarSender function block must be made visible in a program in the declaration part by means of VAR_EXTERNAL <name of the safety network variable list (sender)> : NetVarSender. If the NetVarSender function block is not instantiated in any program, then the network variables are activated by default.
