5.1 Interlock
Interlock is safety-related function, when OSSD output is switched to OFF state due to power on or, blocked beams or an error
occurs during operation, keeping its OFF state when the beams are clear or the error is fixed.
The interlock is reset by auto-reset or manual reset.
5.1.1 Auto-reset
Auto-reset is a function that the OSSD is switched to ON state when all beams are clear without a reset input or power on
again. The manual reset (start interlock and restart interlock) is deactivated.
Be sure to use the auto-reset in the environment where an operator cannot enter the detection zone or hazardous zone.
