Muting Muting function enables flexible setting of protection zones
Function
Specific areas of the protection zone
can be disabled by the muting sensor.
Complicated protection zones can be
configured easily.
Override
Override function enables safe restart of factory lines
Function
With the override function, when a
light curtain is interrupted by an object
or when a line stops before muting
conditions are established (when only
one muting sensor is interrupted),
the object interrupting the light does
not have to be removed. Therefore,
the line can be started smoothly and
safely.
Reference monitor function detects misalignment
By configuring a reference point,
moving parts such as doors can
be detected when SE1L is not
correctly positioned, and turns off
the safety output (OSSD). Because
the misalignment of the SE1L can be
detected, hazardous areas can be
avoided, enhancing safety.
