Preservation of the protective function is guaranteed by means of a functional test. When the TEST command is actuated, a test routine is executed on all the AU S-TWIN internal circuits and associated sensors. Only a positive test result will enable closing of the AU S-TWIN control unit internal safety relays, while detection of a dangerous fault will result in the immediate opening of these. This manual provides detailed instructions as regards operation and configuration of the AU S-TWIN and the electric connections towards the sensors and the machine control system. For correct installation and connection of the REER type 2 sensors, please refer to the specific manuals. Before installing the AU S-TWIN control unit make sure that: F the machine danger rating allows for the use of type 2 electrosensitive safety devices;
