Use combined type

_cds_icon_option_black_activated.png: The individual Boolean variables of the connected logical exchange device (type WORD or BYTE) of the safety application are not mapped to Boolean variables, but to one variable a the combined data type, corresponding to the logical I/O of the safety application.

The variable with the combined data type automatically gets the name of the logical exchange GVL.

If changes are made in the connected logical exchange device, then the Update button in the logical exchange GVL must be clicked in order to update the variable list.

Button: Reset

Editor

Important

The type consistency of the variable exchange is guaranteed only if the application versions on the EtherCAT Safety Module and on the main controller correspond to the version of the same compilable project.

Only data whose variables have a standard data type can be exchanged. Variables of a data type with the SAFE prefix cannot be exchanged between a EtherCAT Safety Module and a standard controller.

A change of the variable exchange can only become active by downloading the safety application and the standard application again.
