SF4C Safety light curtain

4.4 Using the Muting Input Function

The muting function deactivates the safety function of the light curtain temporarily. You can
activate the muting function only if no work piece is in the sensing area, this means the control
outputs (OSSD 1, OSSD 2) have to be ON.
This function is useful for passing work pieces through the sensing area of the light curtain
without stopping the machinery.
