The Integrity Checker comprises four different programs: the 
Validator, the Checker, the GPL Checker and the GPL 
Printer. The Validator and the Checker are used to validate 
the compilation and download process of safety-related 
application programs, including those implemented with 
Ladder Logic and Scaling function block types. 
The GPL Checker and the GPL Printer are used to validate 
the compilation and downloading of Guarded Peer Link data 
templates to assure that the link variables are configured 
correctly.
