There are several funding options from the German DAAD for PhD students and Postdoc working in German universities to visit other countries:

Question: Are these funds added to the regular TV-L salary that the postdocs or PhD students receive from their own university? Or do they replace such salary for the duration of the stay abroad?

    I think I have a pretty solid idea what the answer is but I would strongly encourage you to contact the DAAD and ask them directly.

  • How much is it (compared to, say, 50% TVL)? That might give a hint.

The answer is found in https://www.daad.de/de/im-ausland-studieren-forschen-lehren/stipendien-finanzierung/wichtige-hinweise-zu-daad-stipendien/, Section E, Point 4:

If you are receiving a salary as a PhD student, the "domestic part" of the stipend - currently 850 EUR - is substracted from your DAAD stipend.

Note that there is a direct link to that site (explicitly referring to Section E, for precisely such kind of questions you ask) from the 1st page you link to.
