5. Repeat step 4 individually for each guard that is being monitored.
6. Close the guard. Apply power to the machine control elements and perform the
NOTE: Make sure that both Input 1 and 2 LEDs are ON only when ALL connected guards are closed. If the guards are closed and
the Input LEDs are OFF, the guard switches may be wired incorrectly, which could reset the Module inappropriately (safety output
contacts close as soon as one of the connected guards opens).
Do not continue operation until all checks are completed and all problems are corrected. See Do Not Use Machine Until System is Work-
ing Properly warning, and Repairs
Periodic Checks
WARNING: Do Not Use Machine Until System Is Working Properly
If all of these checks cannot be verified, do not attempt to use the safety system that includes the
Banner device and the guarded machine until the defect or problem has been corrected (see Trouble-
shooting). Attempts to use the guarded machine under such conditions could result in serious bod-
ily injury or death.
At each shift change or machine setup, a Designated Person* should perform the following checks on all safety switches:
1. Verify the switch, sensor, actuator, or magnet are not broken or damaged.
2. Check for good alignment between the switch and actuator or sensor and magnet.
3. Confirm the switches are not being used as an end-of-travel stop.
4. Correct any loosened mounting hardware.
5. Verify it is not possible to reach any hazard point through an opened guard (or any opening) before hazardous machine motion stops
completely.
6. Open and close each guard separately while verifying that the Gate Monitor outputs operate correctly throughout the check proce-
dure. Follow each gate closure with a manual reset, if needed. If a contact set fails, the Safety Module will not enable its reset func-
tion. If the Safety Module does not reset, a switch may have failed; that switch must be immediately replaced.
7. In addition, a Qualified Person* should perform the following on a periodic schedule (determined by the user, based upon the severity
of the environment and the frequency of switch actuations):
a) Inspect the electrical wiring for continuity and damage.
b) Confirm that the wiring conforms to the instructions given in this installation manual.
Do not continue operation until all checks are completed and all problems are corrected. See
on page 19 for further information.
* A Designated Person is identified in writing by the employer as being appropriately trained to perform a specified checkout procedure. A
Qualified Person possesses a recognized degree or certificate or has extensive knowledge, training, and experience to be able to solve
problems relating to safety switch installation.

Description
After the Power, Input 1, and Input 2 LEDs all are ON, open and close all connected guards one at a
time. When each individual guard opens, the corresponding Input LED must turn OFF, and when the
guard closes its LED must come ON again.
After the Power, Input 1, and Input 2 LEDs all are ON, open the guard; both switches must open
within 3 seconds, and both Input LEDs must turn OFF. If the red Fault LED comes ON, simultaneity
between the switches or within one switch (between its NO and NC contacts) was not met. Check all
wiring and the switches.
(Y1/Y2 closed and DIP switches set to Auto Reset), the output LED will come ON as soon as both
Input LEDs are ON (output contacts 13/14 and 23/24 close).
The Output LED should come ON only if Input 1 and 2 LEDs are ON and the Reset button connec-
ted to Y1 and Y2 went from open to closed and back to open position.
