help reduce scan time.

 

If you decide to control your system using the configuration extension, you still may

 

want to program a CHS instruction in ladder logic. The CHS instruction allows you

 

to use Zoom screens, which allows you to access and modify the command register

 

while the system is running.

 

 

 

Note: If both a configuration extension and the CHS instruction are used, the

 

configuration extension controls the Hot Standby system. The only function of the

 

CHS instruction is to provide Zoom screens. The parameters in the configuration

 

screens are applied by the controllers at startup. Once the controllers are running,

 

the Zoom screens may be used to access and modify the command register. The

 

changes are implemented during runtime, and can be seen in the status register.

 

However, if the Hot Standby system is later stopped and then restarted, the

 

parameters specified in the configuration extension screens go back into effect.

 

 

 

 

Ladder Logic in a All ladder logic for Hot Standby functions should be in segment 1. Network 1 of

program all ladder logic specific to Hot Standby functions in segment 1When the Hot Standby system is running, the Primary controller scans all segments, while the Standby controller scans only segment 1 of the configured ladder logic program. This has very important implications with respect to the way you configure system logic:

do not program I/O control logic in segment 1

ldo not schedule any I/O drops in segment 1

the Standby controller in a Hot Standby system must never execute I/O logic.
