4.4.2.4 Internal signal routing
The following gure illustrates the input terminals and the internal wiring to the processor. The 
input signals are located at processor port M. Separate reference potentials 0M, 1M and 2M can 
each be dened for Input 2, Input 3, Input 4 and for Input 1 and Input 0. The input signals are 
provided with internal pull-ups and there are no components between the input terminals and 
the processor that are capable of oscillation.

4.4.2.5 Redundant antivalent signal logic with discrepancy analysis
In the case of 1oo2 evaluation, the sensor is routed to two dierent, mutually antivalent 
channels and is therefore evaluated by the controller twice. The discrepancy analysis is 
performed between the two channels of the 1oo2 evaluation in the controller. If there is a 
discrepancy between the input signals after expiry of the parameterized discrepancy time, e.g. 
due to breakage of a sensor cable, the internal signal is set to "0". The discrepancy analysis at the 
input channels is performed with the "AND0" discrepancy analysis block (for more, see also 
section Free function blocks (Page 92)). This special kind of signal routing achieves PLd and 
enables both high availability and error detection.
The following graphics show an example of 2-channel antivalent wiring of a sensor (antivalent).
