1.12 Rapid roaming
Wireless Teach Pendant F IWLAN V2
Operating Instructions, 08/2010, A5E02453837-01 29
Protection zone
The protection zone is the area in the plant in which one or more machines are operated in
fail-safe mode. The protection zone of the plant is demarcated by a security system and
organizational measures.
The protection zone is not an object that can be configured.
Security system and organizational measures
The security system consists of one or more technical protection devices for the protection
zone, e.g.:
● Mesh fence with access
● Light barrier
● Contact pressure mat
The security system can be controlled by a safety program, such as a program for robot
control conforming to a robotics directive.
1.12 Rapid roaming
The wireless range of an iWLAN system can be expanded through the use of multiple
access points. If an HMI device moves beyond the range of a SCALANCE W78x and into the
range of another SCALANCE W78x, the wireless connection remains intact (roaming).
Capabilities provided by iPCF
In the industrial environment, there are applications that require deterministic behavior for a
large number of participants and high data throughput in a cell. In addition, deterministic
behavior is required for cell cross-overs with handover times of less than 100 milliseconds.
The iPCF extension (Industrial Point Coordination Function) was developed to meet these
requirements.
iPCF ensures that all data traffic runs in coordinated fashion in a wireless cell, controlled by
the access point. It also optimizes the throughput with a high number of participants by
avoiding collisions. iPCF also facilitates very fast cell changes.
Special features provided by iPCF-MC
iPCF-MC was designed to enable free-moving participants to exploit the special advantages
provided by iPCF, which allows communication independent of an RCoax line or directional
antennas. With iPCF-MC, the client looks for potentially suitable access points even when it
is receiving iPCF queries from the access point and the existing connection to an access
point is functioning correctly. This makes it possible to switch to another access point very
quickly if it becomes necessary. Unlike iPCF, with iPCF-MC the handover times do not
depend on the number of radio channels in use.

Wireless Teach Pendant F IWLAN V2
Operating Instructions, 08/2010, A5E02453837-01 31
For stable PNIO communication, a WLAN client should be located at all times in a radio cell
with a signal strength > 60% or > -65 dBm. This can be checked by switching the various
segments on and off.
This does not mean that the client needs to change over at a signal strength < 60% or < -65
dBm. Make sure that a segment is available with a sufficiently powerful signal.
Limitations due to iPCF-MC
iPCF-MC is an in-house development of the Siemens AG that will only work with participants
in which iPCF-MC has been installed.
Operating principle of iPCF-MC
iPCF-MC uses both radio interfaces of the access point differently: One interface works as
management interface and sends a beacon every five milliseconds. The other interface
transmits the user data.
The following requirements have to be met to use iPCF-MC:
● All "RR" versions of the SCALANCE W-700 access points with at least two WLAN
interfaces can be used as access point. The HMI device and all SCALANCE W-700 "RR"
versions are suited as clients.
● You have to operate the management interface and the data interface in the same
frequency band; they also have to match in their radio coverage. iPCF-MC will not work if
both radio interfaces are equipped with directional antenna the cover different areas.
● The management inferfaces of all access points that a client is to access must use the
same channel. A client will only scan this one channel to find all available access points.
● You cannot use the transmission method to IEEE 802.11h for the management interface.
802.11h is possible for the data interface.

1.13 Terms for fail-safe operation
Fail-safe automation system
A fail-safe automation system is required in a plant with high safety requirements.
In an EMERGENCY STOP, the fail-safe automation system brings the plant to a safe
operating state regardless of the situation. Shutdown of the plant therefore does not pose a
danger to people or the plant.
Fail-safe operation
The HMI device registers signals from the EMERGENCY STOP button and the enabling
button during fail-safe operation. The controller and the HMI device communicate via
PROFIsafe.
Configuration of the safety functions in STEP 7 with the "SIMATIC S7 Distributed Safety"
add-on package can achieve fail-safe operation according to SIL 3 or Performance Level e
and Category 4 for the HMI device.
Integration and removal
● Integrating
Integration means to establish safety-related communication between the HMI device and
the fail-safe controller via PROFIsafe.
The EMERGENCY STOP button is enabled in integrated operating mode.
● Removing
Removal means to intentionally stop safety-related communication between the HMI
device and the fail-safe controller via PROFIsafe.
Logging on the HMI device
The HMI device must be logged onto a machine in order to operate the machine after
integration in fail-safe operation with the enabling button. The logon is performed with an
RFID tag.
Logging off an HMI device
Logging off an HMI device from a machine terminates fail-safe operation with the enabling
button.
● Forced logoff
If the security system is triggered, for example by the operator leaving the protection zone
without logging off, a forced logoff is performed by the machine. The HMI device revokes
the operator authorization for the enabling button. The operator is prompted to confirm
the "Forced logoff" dialog.
● Automatic logoff in the event of a communication error

Overview
1.13 Terms for fail-safe operation
Wireless Teach Pendant F IWLAN V2
Operating Instructions, 08/2010, A5E02453837-01 33
If a communication error occurs, the HMI device is removed from the safety-related
communication. The HMI device is automatically logged off the machine. The fail-safe
controller brings the plant to a safe operating state.
Shutdown response of the plant
● The following shutdown response of the plant applies regardless of whether or not the
HMI device is logged onto a machine.
– EMERGENCY STOP
EMERGENCY STOP is a procedure that is intended to stop a process or movement
associated with danger in accordance to EN 60204-1, Appendix D. An EMERGENCY
STOP immediately stops all parts of the plant controlled by the fail-safe controller via a
safety program. The EMERGENCY STOP button is always enabled when there is
PROFIsafe communication between HMI device and fail-safe controller, i.e. when the
HMI device is integrated in the PROFIsafe communication.
– Global rampdown
A global rampdown is the intentional stopping of the plant. The global rampdown is
independent of the area.
The global rampdown is triggered by the fail-safe controller, for example, if an error
occurs with an HMI device integrated in the PROFIsafe communication.
● The following shutdown response of the plant applies when the HMI device is logged onto
a machine.
– Local rampdown
A local rampdown is the intentional stopping of a plant section by the fail-safe
controller. The local rampdown is triggered, for example, when the operator leaves the
protection zone without logging off via a security system.
– Shutdown
The shutdown is triggered when the F-CPU has detected a communication error with
an HMI device that is logged onto a machine. Shutdown is the immediate stop of all
machinery being operated in fail-safe mode.
Communication error
A communication error occurs when the communication between HMI device and fail-safe
controller is interrupted. Additional information is available in the section "Communication
error for the integrated HMI device (Page 256)".

2.6 Safety functions of the EMERGENCY STOP button
Wireless Teach Pendant F IWLAN V2
Operating Instructions, 08/2010, A5E02453837-01 41
2.6 Safety functions of the EMERGENCY STOP button
The EMERGENCY STOP button on the HMI device brings about a safety-related stop of the
plant in accordance with IEC 60204-1, Section 9.2.5.3. You can implement a Category 0, 1,
or 2 stop function in accordance with IEC 60204-1, Section 9.2.2. The stop function category
must be selected on the basis of a risk assessment.
The following requirements must be met in order to render the EMERGENCY STOP button
effective:
● The HMI device must be operated in the docking station or with the main rechargeable
battery.
● A project is running on the HMI device.
● The HMI device must be integrated in the safety program of the F-CPU.
If these prerequisites are satisfied the following applies:
● The "SAFE" LED on the HMI device is lit.
● The EMERGENCY STOP button is enabled.
As soon as the PROFIsafe communication between the HMI device and controller is
established within the WLAN range, the EMERGENCY STOP button on the HMI device
becomes active. The EMERGENCY STOP button is enabled within the WLAN regardless of
whether or not the HMI device is logged onto a machine.
WARNING
EMERGENCY STOP button not available
The EMERGENCY STOP button on the HMI device may not used as a replacement for a
permanently-wired EMERGENCY STOP or EMERGENCY OFF on the machine.
Install stationary EMERGENCY STOP buttons that will be available at all times on the
configured system.
EMERGENCY STOP button not enabled
If a communication error triggers a global rampdown, the EMERGENCY STOP button will
no longer be available on the affected HMI device.
You have the option of interconnecting the "Global Rampdown" signal so that an
EMERGENCY STOP is triggered.
EMERGENCY STOP button out of service when HMI device is removed
If the HMI device is not integrated in the safety program of the F-CPU, the EMERGENCY
STOP button will be out of service.
To avoid confusion between HMI devices with enabled and disabled EMERGENCY STOP
buttons during an emergency, only one integrated HMI device should be freely accessible.
If an HMI device is not integrated and not in use, store the HMI device in a location with
protected access.
Category 0 or 1 Stop
If a Category 0 or 1 stop circuit is implemented, the stop function must be effective
regardless of the operating mode. A Category 0 stop must have precedence. Release of
the EMERGENCY STOP button must not cause a hazardous situation (see also EN 60204-
1, Section 9.2.5.3).
The stop function is not to be used as a replacement for safety equipment.

Note
The EMERGENCY STOP button is evaluated when the HMI device is integrated in the
safety program of the F-CPU. The EMERGENCY STOP button can be triggered
unintentionally in the following situations:
If the HMI device falls down
When opening one of the coverings on the rear of the HMI device
2.7 Safety functions of the enabling mechanism
In a numerically controlled system, the "Special mode" operating mode requires an enabling
mechanism. The enabling mechanism is comprised of two enabling buttons mounted on both
sides of the HMI device.
Special mode
During special mode, safety has to be ensured in a different manner than in automatic mode.
During special mode, personnel enter danger zones of the plant in which controlled
movements must be possible.
Depending on the risk assessment of the plant, movement needs to occur at reduced speed
for special mode. Movement of the plant parts should only be possible when the enabling
mechanism is activated. The operator must be accordingly qualified and know details of use
in accordance with safety regulations.
Safety instructions
The safety-related parts of the controller for speed reduction and those for the enabling
mechanism are designed in such a way that they satisfy the requirements for the safety
category as determined by the risk assessment.
The operating principles of enabling devices are described in EN 60204. Through the
findings from accident investigations and the existence of technical solutions, the 3-stage
enabling button became state of the art. Positions 1 and 3 of the enabling button are Off
functions. Only the middle position allows the enabling function. EN 60204-1 is identical to
IEC 60204-1, whereby the 3-stage enabling button is gaining international importance.

alone. To accomplish this, a secondary, conscious start command using a button on the
HMI device is required.
NOTICE
Risk from improper use
An enabling button can be fixed without permission.
To avoid the risk of unauthorized fixation, fully press both enabling buttons each time the
project starts. Release the enabling buttons.

3.5 Planning protection zones in the RFID tag system
At least one protected area must be set up in an RFID tag system. The protection zone is the
area of the plant in which a plant section is operated in fail-safe mode.
The protection zone requires low-barrier access for the operator to the plant section that is
located within the protection zone. The HMI device must be logged onto a machine within
the protection zone in order to operate the machine after integration in the fail-safe mode
with the enabling button.
Note
You can also operate the HMI device outside a protection zone without logging onto a
machine. However, operation in the fail-safe mode with the enabling button is then not
possible.
The following figure shows a plant with a protection zone.

Wireless Teach Pendant F IWLAN V2
Operating Instructions, 08/2010, A5E02453837-01 53
Relationship between protection zone and RFID tag
The protection zone limit is defined by a clear spatial demarcation.
If the HMI device is logged onto a machine in the protected area with a RFID tag, it is
possible to operate the machine in fail-safe mode with an enabling button within the
protected area.
Requirements for the protection zone
The protection zone must meet the following requirements:
● The protection zone must be completely demarcated and protected.
● Protection zones may not overlap.
● The protection zone must be fully visible to the operating personnel.
● A hazardous location must be visible from every point of the protection zone.
You can find a configuration example in the Appendix.
● The protection zone must be protected by a security system that prevents unauthorized
or erroneous use of the HMI device. The security system must have a safety category
that is sufficient to meet the plant requirements.
The following security systems are suitable:
● Mesh fence with access
If you use a mesh fence for the protection zone, you can protect access through an
additional security system, for example, a light barrier or a contact pressure mat. This
allows open access for an escape route during operation of the plant.
● Light barrier
● Contact pressure mat
The security system can be controlled by a safety program, such as a program for robot
control conforming to a robotics directive.

3.9 Coexistence of the frequency bands
Coexistence in the 2.4 band
The use of the HMI device does not affect the communication with other devices or only
negligibly so. This applies to the following communication networks:
● WLAN
When adding a WLAN participant, make sure that you observe the conditions described
in the document "Wireless LAN in a PROFINET IO Environment". The conditions vary
depending on the operating mode and the requirement for PNIO refresh times. See
Guideline for the Use of Industrial Wireless LAN in a PROFINET IO Environment
(http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/31938420).
● Standard RFID system according to ISO 15693
● Communication protocols that are used for office networks, smoke detectors, bar code
scanners etc. in the 2.4 GHz range
You need to plan the radio channels when operating such devices simultaneously in the
2.4 GHz band – see "SCALANCE W-700" configuration manual
(http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/32816761)". Otherwise sufficient
bandwidth for communications cannot be guaranteed.
● ZigBee devices
Coexistence with other communication networks
Moreover, coexistence is ensured for the following communication networks:
● Coexistence in the 5 band
Planning for the radio channels of all WLAN systems in use is required to ensure
sufficient bandwidth for communication.
● WirelessHART
You need to plan for the radio channels for simultaneous operation of Industrial Wireless
LAN systems and WirelessHART systems in the 2.4 GHz band. Avoid simultaneous use
of overlapping frequency ranges. There is overlapping between Industrial Wireless LAN
and WirelessHART – see "SCALANCE W-700" configuration manual

3.10 Planning information security
Information security is a vital aspect in automation engineering particularly to ensure the
availability and interference-free operation of industrial plants. To ensure communication and
information security via WLAN for the HMI device, you need to protect the communication
system from attack.
Expect:
● Attacks from the outside
To protect against external attacks, you must protect the WLAN in the same way you
would protect office communication, namely with a firewall.
● Attacks from the inside
Investigations have shown that the majority of attacks on information security are
executed from inside the plant. To ensure information security, you need to take action
for:
– Configuration and parameter settings
Possible objectives of an attack are the project and the parameter settings of the HMI
device.
– Productive operation data
The productive data can be manipulated, for example by sending a series of false
PROFIsafe message frames which prevent the plant from being switched off.
Data transfer between HMI device and access point is protected by the AES
encryption mechanism. Manipulation of productive data is prevented in this manner.
Organizational measures
The organizational measures to ensure information security are described in the following
documents:
● IEC 61784-3-3:2007 Functional safety field busses – Additional specifications for CPF 3
● PROFIsafe - Environmental Requirements
Specify the organizational measures you must implement in accordance with your plant's
requirements to achieve the highest possible information security for communication via
WLAN. In doing so, take into consideration:
● Configuration phase
● Process control phase
Check the interplay of the specified measures.

Loader
The following figure shows the Loader.

The transfer mode can only be activated when at least one data channel has been

● "Start" button – This starts the project on the HMI device.
When you do not perform any operation, the project starts automatically based on the
settings in the Control Panel after a delay time.
● "Control Panel" button – This opens the Control Panel.
You can make a variety of settings in the Control Panel, for example, the settings for the
transfer.
● "Taskbar" button – This opens the taskbar and the Windows CE Start menu.
The Loader will reappear when the project is closed on the HMI device.
Password protection
You can protect the Control Panel and taskbar from unauthorized access.
If password protection is configured, the "secure mode" message is displayed on the
desktop. If the password is not entered, only the "Transfer" and "Start" buttons are operable.
You can find additional information on Secure Mode in the section "Enabling and disabling
SecureMode (Page 101)."
NOTICE

If the password is no longer available, you are forced to update the operating system to
regain access to the Control Panel and the Windows CE taskbar.
