Watchdog
Contents

1.Description

This module checks if a telegram has arrived within a certain time. Output 1 and Output 2 sends a telegram when the specified monitoring cycle time has expired. The reset input waits for a signal. If a signal arrives within the cycle time, Output 1 is reset. If the monitoring cycle has expired once, the watchdog module can be activated again via an ON telegram on the reset input or the switch on/off input.
