Abstract

A method and an arrangement having redundant systems operating in parallel in a cyclic mode and reciprocally checking a result of the task of the other system on a regular basis, and wherein one system is selected or confirmed for the productive mode in the fault situation found, where a characteristic variable concerning an operating parameter is picked up for each of the systems in multiple/all cycles and used for updating statistical parameters, where at least when a disparity between results of the two systems is found, a current operating parameter is correlated with the statistical parameter for each system, and where the system for which the current operating parameter differs from the statistical parameter less is detected as the correctly operating system and used for the productive mode such that the degree of fault coverage can be increased and hence the availability of the overall system increased.
