The Safety Task When you create a safety controller project, RSLogix 5000 software
automatically creates a safety task with a safety program and a main (safety)
routine.

Within the safety task, you can use multiple safety programs, composed of
multiple safety routines. The Compact GuardLogix controller supports one
safety task. The safety task cannot be deleted.
You cannot schedule standard programs or execute standard routines within the
safety task.
