METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MONITORING DATA PROCESSING AND TRANSMISSION IN A SECURITY CHAIN OF A SECURITY SYSTEM

摘要

A method for monitoring data processing and data transmission in a safety chain of a safety system, and a device for carrying out the method, which achieve the object of further simplifying the monitoring of the safety chain of an overall safety function of a modular safety system, in particular during ongoing operation. For this purpose, the method and device use at least one actual characteristic value for a safety-relevant characterizing attribute of the data processing and/or data transmission.
