Interconnecting
Refers to the opening of a new voltage group by a power module.
This allows individual grouping of sensor and load supplies.
IO controller
-> PROFINET IO controller
IO device
-> PROFINET IO device
Module fault
Module faults can be external faults (e.g. missing load voltage) or internal faults (e.g.
processor failure). Internal faults always require module replacement.
Monitoring time
-> PROFIsafe monitoring time
Motor starter (MS)
Motor starter is a generic term for direct and reversing starters. Motor starters are used to
determine motor startup and the direction of rotation.
