Demystifying the Beckhoff Sistema Library: Redundancy Made Simple

The library contains safety-related characteristic values for a wide range of Beckhoff hardware: TwinSAFE Logic:

• TcMotion: axis and coordinated motion FBs
• TcEtherCAT: master configuration and API
• TcSysSrv/TcBase: system services, logging, watch-dog
• TcOpcUa: OPC UA server/client integration
• TwinSAFE FBs: safe input/output and safety-related functions
