English translation: has the same voltage level

English term or phrase: follows (meaning of sentence)
sensors - safety applications - muting module (= module that mutes guarding devices during certain non-dangerous phases of the machine cycle i.e. to allow a pallet to pass through a guarded area)

"Auxiliary PNP Output

A non-safety-related PNP output is available at pin 4 of the Mute lamp/AUX connector. This monitoring output is for light-duty, nonsafety-related control functions, such as an input to a PLC. ***This output follows the OSSD outputs*** and the Green status LED. Maximum current draw of the AUX output is 250 mA."

(OSSD = output signal switching device)
does follow in this case mean "imitate the status of" or "change status based on OSSD output status"?

thanks!

Selected answer:has the same voltage level
Explanation:
Hi,

The text simply means the output "has the same voltage levels" as the OSSD output.
"Follow" in the electronic jargon means imitates, has the same levels, mirrors.
