functions are to be identified and specified.
Active protection functions are, e.g. safely limited speed in certain system states, monitored
stop and standstill functions, range monitoring, processing of monitoring devices such as light
grids, safety mats etc.
The safety functions are each to be bounded and the specific requirements defined in relation
to function and safety level.

State the risk to be covered
Describe the exact function
List all sensors, controls involved
