S_MutingSwitch11 and S_MutingSwitch12 inputs

State-controlled inputs for the first sequential muting sensor pair.

Data type: SAFEBOOL
Initial value: SAFEFALSE

Connection: Connect these inputs to the muting sensors 1 and 2 connected to the Sicherheitssteuerung. Constant SAFETRUE or SAFEFALSE values are not allowed.

Hinweis
Depending on the result of the risk analysis, optical, mechanical or inductive sensors such as reflection light sensors, mechanical or inductive switches can be used as muting sensors. Optical sensors serve as examples in the help information.

The functional significance of the inputs differs according to the material flow direction:

Also refer to the example muting operation procedure shown in the functional description for this function block.

If the function block is activated (input Activate = TRUE), the possible values at these inputs lead to the following function block behavior:

ValueDescription
SAFETRUEThe light beam of the connected muting sensor is interrupted (i.e., there is an object inside the detection area of the sensor).
SAFEFALSEThe light beam of the connected muting sensor is not interrupted (i.e., there is no object inside the detection area of the sensor).

Single-channel or two-channel muting sensor?

Irrespective of whether there is a single-channel or two-channel connection between the muting sensors and the Sicherheitssteuerung, inputs S_MutingSwitch11 and S_MutingSwitch12 are only connected to one signal.

If a two-channel muting sensor is used, either the input channels of the safety-related input device must be parameterized accordingly or the SF_Equivalent or SF_Antivalent function blocks must be connected upstream in order to evaluate or monitor the two-channel signal.
