This basic principle applies to all network markers in all data formats:
Network markers overlap in the various data formats

Life signs NET stations
In order to make it possible for all NET stations within a group to be able to know
whether NET stations important to them are still communicating, each station cyc-
lically sends a heartbeat every second (1 s). If a heartbeat is not received, the cor-
responding error bit ID01 – 08 will be set to "1" until a heartbeat is detected.
Remote Run
If this flag is set, the NET stations in a group with NET-ID 02 through 08 will follow the
current operating mode of the NET station with NET-ID 1 (RUN or STOP).
