Technical appendix
Please note
– The following data on measures and DC is based on the data of the standard
EN ISO 13849-1.
– The manufacturer's specifications must be used for a safety-related assessment of
the switching devices.
– The DC values given are only valid when the specified measures and the specified
additional conditions are complied with.
– Fault exclusions are possible according to the relevant standards, for which the
required conditions must be permanently guaranteed.
Measure
Cyclical test pulse through dynamic
change of the output signals.
Cross-comparison of outputs sig
nals with dynamic test if short-cir
cuits cannot be detected (for mul
tiple inputs/outputs).
Cross-comparison of output sig
nals with immediate and intermedi
ate results in the logic (L) and tem
poral as well as logic program
sequence monitoring and detec
tion of static failures and short cir
cuits (for multiple inputs/outputs).
Plausibility check, e.g. use of
outputs switching antivalently.

Comment
90
Always effective in the
safety module, as the test
pulses for the safe pulse
block and for DOUT40 ... 42
cannot be switched off.
90
Without allocation of test
pulses.
Cyclical change of the input
signals required, e.g.
through the process or regu
lar actuation.
99
Always effective in the
safety module, as the test
pulses for the safe pulse
block and for DOUT40 ... 42
cannot be switched off
99
Can only be used for
DOUT40 ... 42, in the "anti
valent" switching configura
tion.
Use
Cross-circuit monitoring
for 2-channel outputs.

outputs.
