EDM1 (External Device Monitor)

The EDM1 (External Device Monitor) signal is used to monitor failures in the HWBB. Connect
the monitor signal as a feedback signal, e.g., to the Safety Unit.
Note: To meet performance level e (PLe) in EN ISO 13849-1 and SIL3 in IEC 61508, the EDM1 signal must be mon-
itored by the host controller. If the EDM1 signal is not monitored by the host controller, the level will be safety
performance level c (Plc) and SIL1.
• Failure Detection Signal for EDM1 Signal
The relationship between the EDM1, /HWBB1, and /HWBB2 signals is shown below.
Detection of failures in the EDM1 signal circuit can be achieved by using the four status of the
EDM1 signal in the following table. A failure can be detected by checking the failure status,
e.g., when the power supply is turned ON.

/HWBB1 ON
/HWBB2 ON
EDM1 OFF
 The EDM1 signal is not a safety output. Use it only for monitoring for failures.
