GROUP Value 5

Deactivation Timeout Error

Beckhoff · TwinSAFE Logic FB

What does GROUP Value 5 mean?

A timeout has elapsed while waiting for a communication error in 'passivate' mode of a manual control unit. This suggests a problem with the deactivation sequence or communication with the manual control unit, potentially preventing the system from entering a safe passive state correctly. The system will remain in an unsafe or error state.

Additional Steps

Steps 1–2 are listed in Priority Fix.

  1. 3

    Review the timeout settings for the 'passivate' mode in the TwinSAFE configuration; adjust if the timeout is set too short for the expected communication delay.

  2. 4

    Ensure the manual control unit is sending the expected signals for deactivation and that the TwinSAFE logic is correctly processing them.
