S5-95U, SINEC L2 Integral Standard Function Blocks L2-SEND and L2-RECEIVE
5 Integral Standard Function Blocks L2-SEND and
L2-RECEIVE
The L2-SEND (FB252) and L2-RECEIVE (FB253) standard function blocks are already integrated in
the S5-95U operating system.
FB L2-SEND transports information from the control processor of the S5-95U to the
communications processor of the S5-95U.
FB L2-RECEIVE transports information from the communications processor of the S5-95U to the
control processor of the S5-95U ( section 5.1).

L2-SEND
The standard function blocks manage the following communications ( Figure 5-1) services:
• Transmitting and receiving by means of PLC to PLC connections ( chapter 6)
• Service functions and diagnostic functions with FMA services ( chapter 3)
• Fetching the ZP slave life list with cyclic I/O ( chapter 7)
• Transmitting and receiving via layer 2 access ( chapter 8)
Standard function blocks offer you the following advantages:
• They do not occupy any memory locations in the user memory.
• They have short run times.
• They do not require any STEP 5 timers or STEP 5 counters.
• Their processing cannot be interrupted (e.g., by interrupts).
• They can be called up from any other block (OB, PB, FB, SB).
Cycle delay times in the programmable controllers caused by standard function blocks are
described in Appendix E.
