Function Description
This EFB allows you to use the Hot Standby function. It searches (together with the other Hot Standby Fibs) the configuration of the respective Quantum PLC for the required components.
These components refer to hardware that is actually connected. Therefore, the correct behavior of this EFB on the simulators cannot be guaranteed.
HSBY_WR is used to set different Hot Standby Modes
for the Primary CPU. Setting the respective modes means changing the
Hot Standby Command register %SW60, which is carried
out automatically by the function block. If there is no Hot Standby
configuration, the HSBY_ConfigurationFound output
is set to 0, otherwise it is set to 1.
EN and ENO can be configured as additional parameters.

In the submenu for the Hot Standby PLC button: 1 = Changes are not allowed. 0 = Changes are allowed. |
|
|
If 1 -> 0, then the Hot Standby ‘A’ CPU on the local rack is forced into OFFLINE mode. If 0 -> 1 and its button mode is in RUN mode, then the Hot Standby ‘A’ CPU is forced into the RUN mode. |
|
|
If 1 -> 0, then the Hot Standby ‘B’ CPU on the local rack is forced into OFFLINE mode. If 0 -> 1 and its button mode is in RUN mode, then the Hot Standby ‘B’ CPU is forced into the RUN mode. |
|
|
If 0 and there is a Switchover, then the Modbus address on port 1 of the NEW Primary CPU PLC changes:
|
If 1 and there is a Switchover, then the Modbus address on Port 1 of the PLC does not change:
