The following are some examples of applications for which particular attention must be given. This is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all possible uses of the products, nor is it intended to imply that the uses listed may be suitable for the products: •...
OVERRIDE: (only present if the muting function is operational) if the button is pressed within 5 seconds of switching on and it is kept pressed for at least 5 seconds, the SLC will close the safety outputs if the beams are interrupted. This condition stops as soon as the button is released or automatically after 120 seconds.
Section 2: Precautions and criteria for installation The area where the SLC is to be installed must be compatible with the SLC 's technical specifications. The temperature of the environment, interference caused by electromagnetic disturbance and sources of light and such like, should be assessed a competent person. Please contact the manufacturer for any information not contained in this manual.
Reflecting surfaces Be sure to install the SLC to minimize the effect of reflection from nearby surfaces. Serious injuries can result if these effects are not taken into consideration. Should there be any reflecting surfaces, the distance must be sufficient to safeguard against passive reflections.

If several SLCs are used, care must be taken that each SLC does not interfere with the ones nearby; please install as follows: Mirror1 SLC1 SLC2 Mirror2 Install the SLC so that they emit in the opposite directions (Staggered) SLC1...

Section 3: Mechanical Assembly Use the appropriate brackets provided to complete the mechanical assembly. The securing brackets nuts slide in the container's grooves so the brackets can be placed at an equal distance from each other. Fixing facilities list 1) Movable nuts (8pcs)
Section 4: Connections Reference for cables The test connection must always be executed with a N.C. button or connected to an automatic device, such as a PLC. TRANSCEIVER SHIELD BROWN BLUE WHITE GREEN YELLOW GRAY PINK Connection with muting function activate...
Restore the SLC's power supply. • Adjust the direction of the SLC by moving the transceiver or the mirror. The 2 yellow LEDs located on the transceiver will both be lit when the SLC is aligned correctly. In addiction also the green guard LED will switch on and the red break LED will switch off •...
Single switch number 4 Reset Manual Automatic (Default setting) ATTENTION In every transceiver unit there are two separate dip-switch banks. The two banks must be set in the same way to get a valid configuration. Single switch number 3 No function DEFAULT SETTING NOT ALLOWED Dip switches number 1 and 2, act on the partial muting configuration.
The presence of this indicator is recognised when the SLC is switched on. If its presence is detected, the SLC will enable the muting function and if it is not present the SLC will ignore any request for muting. It is important to note that if the muting indicator is connected when the SLC is already connected to the power supply, it will not be recognised and the muting function will not be enabled.
This feature is available only on the F3S-TGR-SBx-K3C and F3S-TGR-SBx-K4C models. It gives the users the opportunity to mute only half of the light curtain. The other half remains active. The configuration of this function is done by setting the internal dip switches 1 & 2.
Example of conveyor protection installation, which must allow a box to pass through but not a person. The SLC S is connected to the control panel, and A1, A2, B1 and B2 are sensors used to enable muting. The contacts for these sensors are controlled on the transceiver unit.

It also depends on the conveyour speed: [cm] = v[m/s] * 3[s] * 100 > 25 It is necessary that this distance does not allow both sensors to be activated and thus muting if a person goes through by accident.
The muting request must take place with the correct timing sequence: the Muting A input must be en- abled first and then the Muting B input. The request for the latter must be made within a maximum of 3 seconds and not before 30 ms (Tm) after enabling Muting A input.
SLC, If a pallet has stopped in front of the protected area, it will not be possible to restart the conveyor belt be- cause the SLC detects one or more beams have been interrupted and therefore will not close the outputs;...
LED's Description The operator is able to recognise the operating status of the SLC by means of five LED located on the trans- ceiver. The status of the LED indicates the following: (looking at the front of the transceiver from right to left)
(3) Check that it is not possible to access the danger areas of the machinery from any area that is not pro- tected and that the minimum distance between the dangerous areas and the SLC is no less than that calculated as per formulas 4.1 and 4.2.)
Section 10: Final checks after installation • Check that the area protected by the SLC is free of obstacles. • Check that the safety outputs open correctly by interrupting the protection beams (BREAK LED lit, machinery under control stops).
Safety devices are only useful if they are installed correctly according to the recommendations set down by regulations. If you are not sure that you are able to install safety devices correctly, you should contact our service depart- ment or have them installed by a professional.
