When the function is activated binary output signals START and STDIRIN are
activated. If the output signals are active after the set delay tDef or after the inverse
time delay (setting kSN) the binary output signals TRIP and TRDIRIN are activated.
The function shall indicate forward/reverse direction to the fault. Reverse direction is
