 Material flow is possible in both directions in this example.
 In order for material to be moved in both directions, place the intersection of the
muting sensors exactly in the course of the light beams of the ESPE.
 In order to move material in one direction only, place the intersection, with regard to
the direction of the transport, behind the light beams of the ESPE (see Section
9.10.8).
 The sensor layout shown in this example is suitable for both through-beam
photoelectric switches and photoelectric reflex switches.
 Avoid mutual interference of the sensors.
 Increase the protection against manipulation and the safety level by using the
following configurable functions:
– concurrency monitoring
– monitoring of the total muting time
– muting end via ESPE
 Information on wiring can be found in Section 9.10.3.
Sequence/timing diagram
The function block requires that a valid muting sequence takes place. Figure 210
shows an example of a valid muting sequence based on the basic parameter setting
for this function block.
