Bit pattern test

Bit pattern test of fail-safe outputs
The converter normally responds immediately to signal changes in its fail-safe inputs. This is
not desired in the following case: Several control modules test their fail-safe outputs using bit
pattern tests (light/darkness tests) to identify faults due to either short circuiting or cross
circuiting. When you interconnect a fail-safe input of the converter with a fail-safe output of a
control module, the converter responds to these test signals.

Note
If the test impulses lead to unintended triggering of the Safety Integrated Functions, a
filtering (p9651/p9851 SI STO/SBC/SS1 debounce time) of the terminal inputs must be
assigned parameters.
