Key:
K1 (R) and K2 (R) represent the forcibly guided N/C contacts for monitoring the state of the
relay (readback contacts).
To use the function for external contact monitoring, wire the N/C contacts to alarm input
IN1 (IN2) as illustrated. In this case, the alarm input must be assigned to the output.
Parallel connection of the alarm contacts is not permitted.
These contacts can also be read via safe digital inputs. In this case, evaluate the readback
and thus the state of the switching elements in your safe application program.
When calculating the SIL values for both alternatives, take the different failure rates into
consideration.
Basic specifications
WARNING: Failure of the safety relay contacts due to overload
Protect all safety relay contacts against overload with suitable fuses (see "Safe digital
relay outputs" on page 11-4).
The illustrated 24 V voltage is not provided by the VersaPoint station.

External errors that can be
detected
If alarm inputs IN1 or IN2 are used:
1.
An external load does not pick up
Note: If one of the two external relays does not pick up, this cannot be detected if the
other relay is operating normally.
2.
An external load does not drop out
Errors that cannot be
detected
If no alarm inputs are used, no errors can be detected in the external load or in the wiring.
External wiring
requirements
The user is responsible for error analysis for the connected loads and for the external
wiring.
