Safety Guidelines
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent damage
to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert symbol, notices
referring to property damage only have no safety alert symbol. The notices shown below are graded according to the
degree of danger.

Danger
! indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.

Warning
! indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.

Caution
! with a safety alert symbol indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not
taken.

Caution
without a safety alert symbol indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not
taken.

Attention
indicates that an unintended result or situation can occur if the corresponding notice is not taken into
account.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will be used.
A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to property damage.

Description of C_INTER5

Type/Number
Module name: C_INTER5
Module no.: FB1058

Calling OBs
In the same OB with and after the last block whose signals are to be displayed on the
C_INTER5.

Function
The C_INTER5 block is used to implement a standardized interlock display which can be called
on the OS. The block can be assigned a maximum of 5 input signals, which can each be
inverted as required.
The main object of the C_INTER5 block was developed in order to save much as possible OS
variables. Therefore the signal designations are not entered at the input signals, but in the string
variable S_TEXT.
The designations of all 5 input signals must be entered in this string variable S_TEXT,
separated by a semicolon “;”. The string length for each signal designation is 16 characters.

The five inputs I1_1 to I1_5 form a group. Each signal can be linked logically either directly or
inverted by setting the corresponding inputs NEG1_1 to NEG1_5.

Important: The modification of the negation inputs NEG1_1 to NEG1_5 in runtime (download
! for changes) can lead to a loss of the RLO for one CPU Cycle.
Therefore we recommend inverting directly at the Inputs I1_1 to I1_5.

The type of logic operation of the group is set at the AND_OR1 parameter.
The logic result “LOG1” is represented by green color.

Operating principle
Input Interfaces
I1_1 Input Signal 1 Basic state 1-Signal
Format BOOL
The status of this interface is displayed in the interlock faceplate. The display is grey if the signal
is ok and red if the signal is missing.
At input I1_1 a direct connection of a negation can be used. The indicated status is the status
after the negation. The negation itself is not shown in the faceplate.

NEG1_1 I1_1 will be inverted Basic state 0-Signal

Format BOOL
1-Signal at the interface NEG1_1 leads to a negation at input I1_1. In this case the negation is
visible at the Interlock Faceplate.

Note: The modification of the negation input NEG1_1 in runtime (download for changes) can
! lead to a loss of the RLO for one CPU Cycle.
Therefore we recommend inverting directly at Input I1_1.

I1_2 Input Signal 2 Basic state 1-Signal

Format BOOL
See I1_1

NEG1_2 I1_2 will be inverted Basic state 0-Signal

Format BOOL
See NEG1_1

I1_3 Input Signal 3 Basic state 1-Signal

Format BOOL
See NEG1_1

AND_OR1 1= AND, 0= OR Basic state 1-Signal

Format BOOL
1-Signal at the interface AND_OR1 connects the inputs with an AND function.
0-Signal at the interface AND_OR1 connects the inputs with an OR function.

QC_Q_I Quality Code for output Q Default: 16#80

Format BYTE
Input QC_Q_I can be connected with the quality code of a driver block. This quality code is
transferred to output QC_Q.

S_TEXT Texts for Input Signals 1 to 5

Format STRING
String variable S_TEXT contains the text definition for signal 1-5. Each partial string must be
separated by semicolon.
Each partial string is limited to 16 characters.

Configuring
AS:
CFC Plan editing example:
The assignment of instance names is particularly important when the Interlock module is used.
Depending on the "main object", the name is formed as follows.
For example, C_DRV_1D motor with plant identifier "FK11/E001" should be given an interlock
protective circuit on the input interface "ESVG".
The name of the interlock module instances consists of:
FK11/E001 = main object
_ESVG = interface description
1-3 = number of the interlock modules, max. 3 units
i.e. FK11/E001_ESVG1 is the name of the first interlock module.

Please note:
- Correctly select the interconnection logic (red background means error)
- Assign the signal designations for the control room operator with understandable text.
- Enter the signal designations in S_TEXT.
- on one Interface it could only connect one of the Interlock module Type
(Interlock or Interlock5)

OS:
No further parameterization is necessary.
However, an OS compile must be carried out (in order to generate the tags in the tag
management).

Operator control and monitoring

Display
When an interlock protective circuit is present, the corresponding interface is indicated with a
blue point in the diagnostic dialog of the associated module type.

The interlock dialog displays the input parameter name of its logical state and the subsequent
interconnection.
In an error situation, the input signal is displayed with a red background.
For the control room operator meaningful designations should be chosen for the input
parameters.

Operator Control
A single click on the corresponding interface designation opens the Interlock dialog.
Further functions are not enabled.
