Switchover time with zone selection

The zone selection is done by digital signals that are controlled by the control system. For
the changeover process a maximum switchover time (input delay in PSENscan Configur-
ator) is defined. For this time, non-permitted signals may be present at the entrances to the
zone selection. After the switchover time has elapsed, a valid code for a zone must be
present at the inputs for zone selection. The switchover time can be adjusted in increments
of 30 ms, and it must be adapted to the performance of the control system.
Select the time where the control system can switch an input in a defined way.
