I have some PID functions, so I have to use OB35.
The code I wrote is for PID loops and for some digital sequences. I did that before but not for redundant CPUs, and I used to put all PID functions in OB35 and all the other functions and function blocks in OB1. In software redundancy, FB101 must be invoked before and after the duplicated code (in my case PID & sequence).
The question is, is it right to leave OB1 empty and put all the code in OB35? If yes, how can I determine the OB35 cyclic interval??
The code that I've written and maintained only used the cyclic OBs for the PID control functions.The rest of the code executes from OB1

FB101 should be called in just one single block OB1 or OB35.
