HVIL Using COUT

Hello I am looking at using the COUT channel to loop through a HVIL. I need to have open circuit and shorted to ground monitoring for that circuit so the COUT makes sense for that as it will fault either way and then I can generate a shutdown. My question is should I add a resistor to the circuit and if so do you have a suggested value or will it be ok to just loop HS directly to the LS? I have tested and I don't have any faults. I have set the Max Current to 30 Ma and Min to 5 Ma. then I set the Input to 50%
