An apparatus is provided for detecting fault conditions in the energy supply of a load. The apparatus comprises a fail-safe input-output (I/O) module circuit and a diagnostic circuit coupled to the fail-safe input-output (I/O) module circuit. The fail-safe input-output (I/O) module circuit includes a first switch coupled to a first resistor divider and a first output that supplies a DC supply voltage to the load via a first wiring to reduce a first voltage of the first output down to a first readback diagnostic output and a second switch coupled to a second resistor divider and a second output that supplies the DC supply voltage to the load via a second wiring to reduce a second voltage of the second output down to a second readback diagnostic output. The diagnostic circuit is to provide a first readback measurement signal from the first readback diagnostic output and provide a second readback measurement signal from the second readback diagnostic output. The apparatus is configured to provide the first readback measurement signal and the second readback measurement signal for the first output and the second output with and without the load such that when the first and second switches are open or OFF the first voltage at the first output with the load and the second voltage at the second output with the load indicate a NOT broken wire condition with respect to the first and second wirings while the first voltage at the first output without the load and the second voltage at the second output without the load indicate a broken wire condition with respect to the first and second wirings.

摘要:
Real-time programmable logic controller software is executed on a multicore processor system. An organizational block executer is executed on a first core, and system service functions associated with the programmable logic controller software are executed on the second core. The organizational block executer includes I/O scanning and logic solving in a single-threaded execution. Core-switch operations may be cyclically performed to move execution of the organizational block executer from the first core to the second core and back to the first core.

Aspects of the present invention provide machines, systems, and methods in which industrial control systems may be secured from compromise and/or disruption via authentication and firewall. In particular, an industrial controller may: randomly generate an exchange key and send the exchange key to a client device in response to a transaction request originating from the client device; combine the exchange key with a locally stored pass key to produce an authentication code; and compare a challenge key received from the client device to the authentication code to determine a match between the challenge key and the authentication code. A successful match between the challenge key and the authentication code may allow the client device to further access the industrial controller using a common industrial protocol (CIP), and a failed match between the challenge key and the authentication code may prevent the client device from further access to the industrial controller.
