7.5.2 Limit comparators
Limit comparators (limit monitors, limit contacts) are used to monitor the size
of an input variable (actual value for the comparator) in comparison with a
fixed threshold or another variable (set value for the comparator). If the signal
goes beyond the limit (threshold) a signal can be output or an internal function
can be initiated.
