The control output (OSSD 1 / 2) shall be ON.
The incandescent lamp with 3 to 10W shall be connected to the muting lamp output. (Note 1)
Muting input A and B shall be changed from OFF (open) to ON. At this time, the time
difference occurred by changing the muting input A and B into ON status shall be 0.03 to 3
sec. (Note 2)
The following devices, photoelectric sensor with semiconductor output, inductive proximity sen-
sor, position switch on NO (Normally Open) contacting point, etc. are available for applying to
the muting sensor.
1RWHV  The muting lamp diagnosis function can be set with the handy controller Ver. 2 or later (SFB-HC) (optional).
If the muting lamp diagnosis function is set to be invalid, the muting function is maintained even if a
lamp blows or a lamp is not connected.
2) 0 to 3 sec. is allowable by using the handy controller Ver. 2.1 (SFB-HC) (optional) and connecting NO
(Normally Open) type muting sensor to the input A, as well as connecting NC (Normally Closed) type
muting sensor to the input B.

Use the muting control while the machine cycle is not in danger mode. Maintain
safety with the other measure while the muting control is activated.
For the application that the muting control is activated when a workpiece pass-
es through the sensor, place the muting sensor so that the conditions for the
