Slave
Component for data transmission; the master cyclically addresses this component by its
address. Only then does it generate an answer.
Standard slave
Slave for connecting non-safe sensors, actuators and other devices.
Synchronisation time
The maximum permissible temporal offset between the occurrence of two events which are
dependent on one another.
ON state
Switched on, logical "1", TRUE.
This state means that the device has agreed to validate the circuit, i.e. to activate the safe
switching outputs. Depending on the device type, various conditions must first be met.
OFF state
Switched off, logical "0", FALSE.
This state means that the device has not agreed to validate the circuit, i.e. it results in the
switching off of the safe switching outputs.
