Hello,
On the Diagnostics tab, we have the ability to read CPU Temperature of the SAFEX-C.1x controllers in the most recent software versions. A customer has requested that this parameter be available either readable externally from a PLC for monitoring, or that the CPU temperature can be monitored Inside the Safety program, with the purpose of setting a bit HIGH if the temperature exceeds a pre-defined temperature level.
1. Is the CPU Temperature monitorable from a PLC, either by reading over fieldbus, FSoE or other method?
2. The documentation hints that temperature monitoring is built-in. Does the CPU temperature already trigger a fault/warning/error of some kind, and if so, what is the threshold for this trigger?
3. Is it possible for a customer to set a user-defined temperature threshold for detection in the Safety program?
