The error is detected on a change in state, as the state only
changes in one channel.
– Change in state from “1” to “0”:
The faulty input remains at “1”. A “0” is transmitted in
the process data image of the affected inputs.
– Change in state from “0” to “1”:
A “0” is transmitted in the process data image of the
inputs, as the faulty input was not previously set to “0”.
Clock output that is not clocked

No
The error is detected in state “1” or on a change in state
from “0” to “1”, as the state only changes in one channel.
Clock output to ground
Yes

No
The error is detected as a short circuit of the clock output.
The affected clock output is disabled.
External 24 V to ground
Yes
None
No
The error is detected as a change in state from “1” to “0”.
An unexpected change from “0” to “1” is possible.
Make sure that this change in state cannot restart the sys

Only applies when symmetry monitoring is active.
WARNING: Loss of the safety function
An accumulation of errors can result in the loss of the safety function.
•
Test the safety function at regular intervals to detect errors at an early stage.
