System With A Self-Test Function, And Method For Verifying The Self-Test Function Of A System

摘要

A system with a self-test function has at least one system component which has at least one technical function, a fault simulation unit integrated in the system, a self-test unit integrated in the system, and a verification control unit integrated in the system, wherein the at least one system component is coupled to the fault simulation unit, wherein the fault simulation unit is designed to influence the operation of the system component to the effect that the at least one technical function is selectively impaired, wherein the self-test unit is designed to monitor operating parameters of the system component and to respectively generate a warning signal which indicates impairment of the respective at least one technical function, and wherein the verification control unit is designed to compare the warning signals generated by the self-test unit with expected warning signals on the basis of the impaired technical functions.
