Task: S7-1500F Workshop Instructions

The purpose of this workshop is to guide you through an example of

how to configure a 1500F safety PLC using TIA Portal. The requirements for this lab include
the safety demo pictured, PC with TIA Portal V15 or greater, and an Ethernet cable for
download.

This workshop is based on a bottle-filling machine and requires programming

several safety functions. These safety functions will use ESTOP buttons, a RFID door switch,
a mode switch, a HMI acknowledgement of safety mode change, a LED wheel to simulate a
conveyor, and a safety relay output to simulate a filling station.

The ESTOP pushbuttons will turn off all safety outputs The ETSOP function will
require a manual acknowledgement. When maintenance mode is active, and after HMI
acknowledgement, opening the door switch will enable or disable safe limiting speed mode for
simulated conveyor. A simulated filling position will turn on the relay output to start filling.

The hardware configuration and PLC software programming will be covered

during the workshop. Once the project has been downloaded to the PLC you will insert
hardware faults into the safety system and use the front display and the Web Server of the
PLC to diagnose them. The safety signature and safety printout will also be reviewed for
documentation.

on the highest priority of all OB’s and communications—see next page for
explanation.
In this we can see how the safety system functions and see other important information
about our safety project. Look through the setting but do not make any changes at this
point. We will come back to this at the end of this lab to review once the program is

Safety Runtime Priority vs Communication Priority

• From S7-1500 System Manual, 12/2017(A5E03461182-AE), Chapter 8.2:

• From SIMATIC Safety - Configuring and Programming Manual, 10/2018 (A5E02714440-AH),

Chapter 5.2.1:

• Setting F-OB priority >15 will maintain data consistence when there’s data exchange between F-
OB and HMI. It will also help F-OB not to exceed F-Monitoring Time.

1. Under the safety administration you may have noticed

there is no safety program password. TIA Portal allows
you to not have a password while developing and
testing your system. This makes it so you do not have
to enter a password every time you make a change
during development. Once you have completed your
safety acceptance test, you should enter a password
here. For this lab we will not enter one now.

Safety Instruction ESTOP1: Emergency STOP up to stop cat 1

Enable signal Q is reset to 0, as soon as input E_STOP

takes a signal state of 0 (Stop Category 0). Enable signal
Q_DELAY is reset to 0 after the time delay set at input
TIME_DEL (Stop Category 1).
Stop Category 0: “Coast”, “pull the plug”.
Stop Category 1: “Controlled stop, then pull the plug”

Enable signal Q is reset to 1 not before input E_STOP

takes a signal state of 1 and an acknowledgment occurs.
The acknowledgment for the enable takes place according
to the parameter assignment at input ACK_NEC:
ACK_NEC = 0, the acknowledgment is automatic.
ACK_NEC = 1, you must use a rising edge at input ACK for
acknowledging the enable.

Task: Safety Function: RFID Door Monitor

1. Next, in network 5, we program door

monitoring logic using SFDOOR safety
instruction.

Unrestricted / © Siemens Industry Inc. All rights reserved usa.siemens.com/safety

Safety Instruction SFDOOR: Safety door monitoring

Enable signal Q is reset to 0 as soon as one of the inputs IN1

or IN2 take a signal state of 0 (safety door is opened). The
enable signal can be reset to 1, only if:
• Inputs IN1 and IN2 both take a signal state of 0 prior to
opening the door (safety door has been completely
opened)
• Inputs IN1 and IN2 then both take a signal state of 1 (safety
door is closed)
• An acknowledgment occurs

The acknowledgment for the enable takes place according to

the parameter assignment at input ACK_NEC:
If ACK_NEC = 0, the acknowledgment is automatic.
If ACK_NEC = 1, you must use a rising edge at input ACK for
acknowledging the enable.

Task: Safety Function: HMI Acknowledgement of Maintenance
Mode Switch

1. In network 6, we implement HMI user

acknowledgement of mode change using
ACK_OP safety instruction.

Unrestricted / © Siemens Industry Inc. All rights reserved usa.siemens.com/safety

Safety Instruction ACK_OP: Fail-safe Acknowledgement

This instruction enables fail-safe acknowledgment from an HMI

system. It allows, for example, reintegration of F-I/O to be controlled
from the HMI system. Acknowledgment takes place in two steps:
1. Input/output parameter IN changes to a value of 6 for exactly one
cycle.
2. Input/output parameter IN changes to a value of 9 within a minute
for exactly one cycle
Once the in/out parameter IN has changed to a value of 6, the
instruction evaluates whether this parameter has changed to a value
of 9 after 1 second, at the earliest, or one minute, at the latest.
Output OUT (output for acknowledgment) is then set to 1 for one

Task: Safety Function: Contactor Output and Monitor

1. The next safety function(Network 7) to

implement is the contactor monitoring logic
using safety instruction FDBACK.

Unrestricted / © Siemens Industry Inc. All rights reserved usa.siemens.com/safety

Safety Instruction FDBACK: Feedback Monitoring

The signal state of output Q is checked to see

whether it corresponds to the inverse signal state of
the feedback input FEEDBACK.
A feedback error ERROR = 1 is detected if the
inverse signal state of the feedback input
FEEDBACK (to input Q) does not follow the signal
state of output Q within the maximum tolerable
feedback time(FDB_Time). The feedback error is
saved.
The feedback error is acknowledged in accordance
with the parameter assignment of ACK_NEC:
If ACK_NEC = 0, the acknowledgment is automatic.
If ACK_NEC = 1, you must acknowledge the
feedback error with a rising edge at input ACK.

Task: Safety Function: Safety Relay Output and Monitor

1. Driven by a simulated position feedback

signal from HMI, the Filling Station
output(indicated by Safety Function 1 LED)
is controlled by a safety relay output with
monitoring. Network 9 and 10.

Task: Safety Status(Network 13): User Acknowledgement
Required

ACK_REQ is the safety tag indicating a user

acknowledgement is required. In this network,
ACK_REQ tags from ALL safety instructions
and F-IO modules are monitored to turn on
Blue LED light on the blue pushbutton to
prompt the user for acknowledgement.

Task: S7-1500F Safety Testing

▪ Estop 1 and Estop 2– They will cause all safety outputs to turn off, including Green LED wheel and Safe Function 1 Yellow Indicator.
The ESTOP lights will turn on to indicate the pushbutton is pressed. The operation status will change to stop, indicated by the red LED
and Top LED. The ESTOP function will need a manual acknowledgement once the ESTOP is cleared by pressing the blue ACK
pushbutton.

▪ Zone 1 Door Switch – This safety door switch will turn off Green LED wheel under normal operation. If the Maintenance mode switch
is activated and HMI acknowledgement is issued, opening the safety door will “slow down” the LED wheel and change color to red.
The status LED also flashes during maintenance mode and when the door is open.
