Operating Instructions
Non-Contact Safety Switch CES-I-AS2A-M-C04

6. Function
The safety switch monitors the position of movable safety guards. When the actuator is moved to/removed from the oper-
ating distance, a corresponding bit sequence is sent via the AS-Interface bus.
The system consists of the following components: coded actuator (transponder) and switch.
Whether the device learns the complete actuator code (unicode) or not (multicode) depends on the respective version.
Devices with unicode evaluation:
The actuator must be assigned to the safety switch by a teach-in operation so that it
is detected by the system. This unambiguous assignment ensures a particularly high level of protection against tampering.
The system thus possesses a high coding level.
Devices with multicode evaluation:
Unlike systems with unique code detection, on multicode devices a specific code is
not requested but instead it is only checked whether the actuator is of a type that can be detected by the system (multicode
detection). There is no exact comparison of the actuator code with the taught-in code in the safety switch (unique code
detection). The system possesses a low coding level.
When the safety guard is closed, the actuator is moved towards the safety switch. When the switch-on distance is reached,
power is supplied to the actuator by the switch and data is transferred.
When the safety guard is closed and the code is permissible, each CES-I-AS transmits a switch-specific, unique safety code
sequence with 8 x 4 bits via the AS-Interface bus.
The zero sequence is transmitted via the AS-Interface bus when the safety guard is opened.
In the event of a fault in the safety switch, the zero sequence is sent and the DIA LED illuminates red. The occurrence of
faults is detected at the latest on the next demand to close the safety outputs (e.g. on starting).
6.1. Limit-range monitoring
If the safety door with the actuator should settle over time, the actuator can drift out of the read head operating distance.
The device recognizes this situation and indicates that the actuator is in the limit range by flashing the STATE LED. This
allows the safety door to be readjusted in time. Also see chapter 10. System status table on page 12.
6.2. Switching states
The detailed switching states for your switch can be found in the system status table. All safety outputs, monitoring outputs
and display LEDs are described there.

(actuator in the operating distance and permissi-
ble code detected)
