Cross-comparison of input
signals with dynamic test, if
short-circuits cannot be
detected (for multiple
inputs/outputs)
For fault exclusion

99
Cross-comparison of input
signals with immediate and
intermediate results in the
logic (L) and temporal as well
as logic program sequence
monitoring and detection of
static failures and short circuits
(for multiple inputs/outputs).
Only effective if pulse
assignment is active

Plausibility test, e.g. use of
normally open and normally
closed contacts = non-
equivalent signal comparison
of input elements.
Only effective in
