8.3 Input/Output Functions (E/A)
8.3.1 Pin Function
The pin function is used to define the function of pins I/O1, I/O2, and I3, as these can be used for differ-
ent functions.
Pin Possible settings Default
E/A1 Switching output
Switching point SSC1 is assigned to the switching output.

The error output switches if one of the assigned errors occurs;
see table Status messages [}32].
Warning output
The warning output switches if one of the assigned warnings
occurs; see table Status messages [}32].

Switching output
E/A2 Switching output
Switching point SSC2 is assigned to the switching output.
Antivalent switching output
The switching output switches antivalently to switching output
A1.
Error output
The error output switches if one of the assigned errors occurs;
see table Status messages [}32].
