Overview
EN 61784-3-1:2010 (aligned with IEC 61784-3-1:2010) defines a safety communication layer for industrial communication networks - specifically additional specifications for CPF 1 (Communication Profile Family 1). The standard specifies services and protocol behavior for functional safety fieldbuses based on IEC 61158 Types 1 and 9 and the CPF 1 profile family from IEC 61784‑1. This edition (2010) is a technical revision of the 2007 version and includes updates such as changes to sequence number length, added time-synchronization detail, and guidance on safety response time and system characteristic calculations.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Safety communication layer: Defines services, protocol interfaces and the structure required for safe device-to-device messaging over CPF 1 fieldbuses.
- Black channel concept: Treats the underlying network as an unsecured transport - the safety layer provides end-to-end safety measures.
- Integrity measures: Sequence numbers, time stamps, time expectation, data integrity assurance and connection authentication are required safety measures.
- Sequence number change: Sequence number length updated from two octets to four octets to match the final consortium protocol.
- Time synchronization: Additional details added for timed operations and synchronized safety messaging (important for deterministic behavior).
- Safety response time: Added guidance for defining and verifying the end-to-end safety response time for safety instrumented systems (SIS).
- Redundancy and cross-checking: Support for redundant architectures and cross-check techniques to meet SIL environments and reliability targets.
- Configuration and device models: Object dictionaries, function block application processes (FBAP), and configuration levels for manufacturer and network definitions.
Applications
- Implementing FOUNDATION Fieldbus SIS (FSCP 1/1) and other CPF 1-based functional safety solutions.
- Designing safety-instrumented systems (SIS) and programmable electronic systems in process industries (oil & gas, chemical, power).
- Integrating safety-capable field devices, controllers and linking devices where deterministic, certified safety communications are required.
- Evaluating and validating safety response time, synchronization and system-level characteristics for SIL compliance.
Who should use this standard
- Functional safety engineers and system architects
- Fieldbus and industrial network device manufacturers
- System integrators and automation vendors
- Certification bodies and test laboratories working on SIL verification

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
International Standard IEC 61784-3-1 has been prepared by subcommittee 65C: Industrial
networks, of IEC technical committee 65: Industrial process measurement, control and
automation.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2007. This edition
constitutes a technical revision. The main changes with respect to the previous edition are
listed below:
⎯ updates in relation with changes in IEC 61784-3;
⎯ adjustment of Figure 5;
⎯ change of sequence number from two octets to four octets in 7.2.2 to match the final
protocol from the consortium.
⎯ addition of details for time synchronization in 7.2.4;
⎯ addition of information for safety response time in 9.3;
⎯ addition of information in constraints for calculation of system characteristics in 9.5.

the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data
related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.

0 Introduction
0.1 General
The IEC 61158 fieldbus standard together with its companion standards IEC 61784-1 and
IEC 61784-2 defines a set of communication protocols that enable distributed control of
automation applications. Fieldbus technology is now considered well accepted and well
proven. Thus many fieldbus enhancements are emerging, addressing not yet standardized
areas such as real time, safety-related and security-related applications.
This standard explains the relevant principles for functional safety communications with
reference to IEC 61508 series and specifies several safety communication layers (profiles and
corresponding protocols) based on the communication profiles and protocol layers of
IEC 61784-1, IEC 61784-2 and the IEC 61158 series. It does not cover electrical safety and
intrinsic safety aspects.
Figure 1 shows the relationships between this standard and relevant safety and fieldbus
standards in a machinery environment.

Safety communication layers which are implemented as parts of safety-related systems
according to IEC 61508 series provide the necessary confidence in the transportation of
messages (information) between two or more participants on a fieldbus in a safety-related
system, or sufficient confidence of safe behaviour in the event of fieldbus errors or failures.
Safety communication layers specified in this standard do this in such a way that a fieldbus
can be used for applications requiring functional safety up to the Safety Integrity Level (SIL)
specified by its corresponding functional safety communi
