4.2 SFB Configuration Tool
The SFB Configuration Tool is used to check the module parameters in the
engineering tool for safe control (e.g. TIA Portal) for correctness.
This is a safety-related validation measure.
Without this check and the transfer of the checksum (F_iPar_CRC) from the SFB
Configuration Tool to the F-PLC, the device will not operate.
