Description

Specifies whether the switch test function is activated.

With the switch test function, the safety option checks the safe digital input pairs F-DI for correct switching behavior after a discrepancy error has been detected. To perform the switch test, the switch contacts must be set to the open/activated state after the discrepancy error has occurred.

The setting of the Connection type parameter defines the status that the two digital input signals must have for the switch test:
