*: Fault is detected only in case of signal corruption. In other words, the signal read differs from the
sensor signal (discrepancy error). If there is no signal corruption with respect to the sensor signal,
fault detection is not possible and is not required from a safety standpoint.
WARNING
If the short-circuit test is disabled or cannot be enabled, the wiring between the sensor and
input channel must be short circuit-proof.
