Abstract
A method for fail-safe transmission of information between a transmitter and a receiver is disclosed. At least two telegrams relating to the information are transmitted as a first telegram via a first channel and a second telegram via a second channel from the transmitter to the receiver. To identify an error affecting the information during transmission, a first identifier is generated from a first subset of the first telegram being used at the receiver to identify the information contained in the first telegram. This method is used for communication from a safety switching device to a control unit.
