7.4.5 Triac monitoring
Description
Each zone has its own triac monitoring (triac = electronic power switch
which directly controls the heating circuits), in order to be able to detect a
possible control interruption of a zone, e.g. nozzle heating.
A defective triac is detected if a current flows without controlling the out-
puts.
If a current flows, this zone is switched off and an error message
is
displayed.
