[[Category:]]watchdog is a Siemens S7-1200 (1212C) in use for keeping an eye on things.

  • Firmware 1.0.0
  • Receives 'alive'-signals (a bit in data block 1 is toggled [one for each alive signal] via the OPC server)
  • from FCS-DTM (not anymore since that has been replaced with the new DTMs.
  • Outputs to RSS PLC

From the documentation: "The BLM (RSS) and FCSs give a pulsating alive signal. These systems are considered alive if neither the low nor the high level of the signal persists more than one second."
