Failure Detection Signal for EDM1 Signal
The status of the EDM1 signal indicates if a failure was detected in the EDM1 circuit or not, and is determined
by the status of the /HWBB1 and /HWBB2 signals as shown in this table. If the signal status differs from those
shown here, a failure has occurred in the EDM1 circuit. Failures can be detected if the failure status can be
confirmed, such as when the power supply is turned ON.
The EDM1 signal is not a safety output. Use it only for monitoring a failure.
