changed as in non-SIL mode.
The parametrisation in SIL mode works as described in chapter "Operation" in [N1] for the most
parameters. However, there are some parameters which have an influence on functional safety
if set incorrectly.
For every safety affecting parameter, two values, potentially equal ones, exist in the device: one
is used for non-SIL, the other for SIL operation. Depending on the device's state, either the one
parameter set or the other is shown or can be edited. As soon as the SIL mode is requested, the
SIL mode parameters become active.
