active high binary wake-up input
I also often use 'digital' for TOR, which is perfectly acceptable, since we don't specify how many bits it is (here, only one!) However, as it is a 2-state situation, 'binary' is also a good solution.
It's a wake-up input (E rev.), and it wakes up with a logic high i/p signal; but there's a more elegant way of expressing that in EN, since 'active high' means 'it does [whatever it's meant to do] when the input is high'

Right, Chris, that certainly helps a lot!
So we now know hat it is indeed a 'wake-up' input, and that the '+' means it is 'active high', as distinct from the '–' (= 'active low').
I think you just about have it sewn up there, then...

My tights are fine, thanks, Chris... more ladders than a whole battalion of firemen... why don't you just go out and say it, I'm as queer as a coot... but I know my inputs an outputs ;-)

Note from asker:
| I hope your tights are sewn up as well, must be something about the hair colour that reminds me of my nephew's lad, always complaining about his tights whenever he is preparing for ballet. |
| I'll leave your inputs and outputs alone if it's all the same to you! Must crack on if we're going to find the time to visit queer folk in Spain. Long standing friend who breeds afghan hounds, but not a ballet dancer. |

digital inputs which trigger on going "high"
Possibly not the best choice of phrasing, but basically it means that something happens when the input is anything other than close to zero. I'm not sure how an alarm fits in with "rev", more likely to be "rév", ie wake-up/trigger, don't you think? Tautologous?

: TOR=Tout Ou Rien, name of binary (not digital, digital has many more states: 255, 32767...) inputs in Schneider or PLC vocabulary, E TOR is the fast type

Except for some very rare tri-state or quantum devices, I'm not aware of any digital ones which are NOT binary! Doesn't "E" just mean "entrée"?

I'm enclosing ample context I hope.
La polarisation des entrées ainsi que leur période de scrutation sont spécifiées dans la STD spécifique au boîtier de servitude.
Il y a 2 types d’entrées TOR : les E TOR et les E TOR Rapides.
Période de scrutation des E-TOR :
En cas d’absence de spécification dans les STD spécifiques, l’acquisition est filtrée par 3 lectures espacées de 10 ms pour les E TOR et de 5 ms pour les E TOR Rapides.
Les entrées TOR réveil doivent être surveillées pendant la phase de veille du Boîtier de Servitudes afin de provoquer un réveil en cas de changement d'état de l'une d'entre-elles.
Elles se décomposent en plusieurs groupes :
- Les E TOR+ rev qui réveillent sur niveau high (état ON), - Les E TOR- rev1 qui réveillent sur front montant uniquement (transition de niveau low à niveau high (état OFF)),
- Les E TOR- rev2 qui réveillent sur front descendant uniquement (transition de niveau highà niveau low),
- Les E TOR- rev3 qui réveillent sur front montant et front descendant
