The
parameter
“Value
for
rising
edge“
defines
whether
the
channel
should
send
an
1
‐
signal
(value:
On)
or
a
0
‐
signal
(value:
Off).
If
you
want
for
example
switch
a
channel
of
a
switch
actuator,
you
will
have
to
choose
different
values
for
the
rising
and
the
falling
edge.
Otherwise
the
input
sends
the
same
signal
twice,
for
example
an
On
‐
signal.
The
cyclic
sending
causes
that
the
state
of
the
input
is
sent
periodically
in
certain
parameterize
able
intervals.
Then
the
input
sends
the
parameterized
value
for
the
corresponding
edge.
A
common
application
for
this
parameter
is
for
example
the
observation
of
windows,
which
are
equipped
with
window
‐
contacts.
So
a
display
can
for
example
show
whether
all
windows
are
closed
or
not.
Furthermore
an
alarm
device
can
operate
with
this
function.
The
following
diagram
describes
this
sub
‐
function.
In
this
example,
the
input
sends
an
1.signal
for
a
falling
edge
and
a
0
‐
signal
for
a
rising
edge.
Additional
the
diagram
shows
the
connection
with
a
switch
actuator,
which
was
parameterized
with
a
normal
switching
function:
