2.23 Direct wiring of the TwinSAFE outputs to TwinSAFE
inputs (2-channel) (Category 3, PL d)
Two outputs of an EL2904 are wired directly to two safe inputs of an EL1904; the test pulses and current
measurement of the outputs and the sensor test of the inputs are thereby deactivated. On the input side,
both signals are checked for discrepancy within the TwinSAFE logic. Hence, both signals are checked for
their value, but no tests are active on the cable, so that possible external feeds are detected when
switching the outputs.
