Procedure for commissioning a SIMATIC Safety F-system
For commissioning, you need the CPUs 1518HF-4 PN. The procedure for commissioning the
F-system is not fundamentally different to commissioning an R/H-system. You use the Safety
Administration Editor to commission SIMATIC Safety and activate the safety mode. The Safety
Administration Editor is assigned to the top CPU in the STEP 7 project tree.
You can find more information on commissioning a SIMATIC Safety F-system and the Safety
Administration Editor in the SIMATIC Safety – Configuring and Programming
(https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/54110126) Programming and
Operating Manual.

Removing/plugging in SIMATIC memory cards
Requirements
For the S7-1500R/H redundant system, you need a SIMATIC memory card for each of the two
CPUs.
The CPUs only support pre-formatted SIMATIC memory cards. If required, format the SIMATIC
memory cards before using them in the CPU.
You can find more information on formatting SIMATIC memory cards in the function manual
Structure and use of the CPU memory
(https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/59193101).
Make sure that the SIMATIC memory cards of the two CPUs are not write-protected.
