Muting
888509579
Muting is the automatic temporary bypassing of all safety-based functions of the control sys-
tem or of the safety equipment. Muting is used when certain objects, e.g. pallets with material,
may be moved into the hazardous area. During this transport, the muting function suppresses
monitoring by the contactless safety device (BWS), e.g. a safety light curtain.
