  Technical Description 

4.  Data corresponding to the digital inputs are evaluated by a software check, which 

monitors the data stream in packets of three (3 b) consecutive bits. If these bits are 
identical, the data is correct and the condition is displayed or reported. The update 
time for any new data is 9 to 12 seconds.
