Failsafe over EtherCAT (FSOE) is a safety communication layer specifically designed for EtherCAT networks.
FSOE defines a protocol for transmitting safety data between devices with support for Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3). Safety PDUs are transmitted over an underlying fieldbus, which is treated as a black channel and is not part of the safety assessment. The fieldbus handles Safety PDUs as cyclically exchanged process data between communication partners.
FSOE operates using a master/slave structure, known as an FSOE Connection, where Safety PDUs are exchanged between the FSOE Master and FSOE Slave in a ping-pong fashion. An FSOE Master can manage multiple FSOE Connections to communicate with several FSOE Slaves.
RT-Labs provides an FSOE component compatible with its EtherCAT stacks, SOEM, and SOES.
