NI-9351 C-series module for functional safety

[Zxc123456.]

Hello, everyone,

My group bought a safety Module NI9351 for my experiment. through the Manual, I'm not sure how it works, and what does it work for? I guess it might be used for an emergence stop?

Does anyone have some idea about this Module? 

Thank you very much.

Hi,
 

The module contains built-in diagnostics that can monitor the status of the hardware and the integrity of the connections.

It can be used to control critical safety functions in manufacturing assembly and test cells, large physical tests, condition monitoring applications, and process monitoring and control.

Probably you can refer to these links below.
