Two-hand Control Function Block Error Handling
A discrepancy error is generated when one of the inputs is not in its
correct state for longer than the discrepancy time. For example, in
Dual Channel Equivalent mode, both inputs must be active (on)
within the discrepancy time or an error occurs.
Use this table to diagnose and reset a Discrepancy Error condition in
the Two-hand Control function block.
