ESTOP Function Block Error Handling
A discrepancy error is generated when one of the inputs is not in it’s
correct state for longer than the Discrepancy Time. For example, in
Dual Channel Equivalent mode, both inputs must be active (on)
within the Discrepancy Time or an error occurs.
Use this table to diagnose and reset a discrepancy error condition in
the ESTOP function block.
