MutingEnable input

State-controlled input for enabling the muting operation.

Data type: BOOL
Initial value: FALSE

Connection: Connect this input to an enable signal for the muting operation connected to the Sicherheitssteuerung, either directly or via other functions/function blocks. It can be connected to the TRUE constant if your risk analysis for the application results that a separate or external enable signal is not necessary.

When the function block is activated (input Activate = TRUE), no start-up inhibit is active, no error messages are present, and the light grid is not interrupted (S_AOPD_In = SAFETRUE), the possible values at this input lead to the following function block behavior:

ValueDescription
FALSENo enable for the muting operation.

Interruption of the light beam of one or more of the muting sensors leads to an immediate error (Error = TRUE) and the S_AOPD_Out output switches to the defined safe state (S_AOPD_Out = SAFEFALSE).
TRUEEnable for the muting operation.

Interruption of the light beam of one or more of the muting sensors starts the muting operation.

Hinweis
Set the MutingEnable input to TRUE in order to enable a muting operation. This measure reduces the risk of an unintentional muting process.
