The first time the tools are closed the Sentinel Plus must perform an overrun test, where the
beam is moved down in high speed, and then stopped to test the function of PGS-3
emergency stop outputs, and also to assess the stopping performance of the press brake.
The operator is warned of the upcoming test by a message in the Status screen, see
Figure 6-3
.

Before performing the overrun test check the following.
•
Open the tools to a minimum opening of 100mm.
•
Check that the transmitter and receiver are correctly aligned.
•
Check that the receiver sensors are clear (see the LZS-005-R receiver or the
Sensor window of the User Interface Panel).
Note:
Refer to
Section 4.1
for information on the automatic tool alignment procedure.
To commence the test, press the foot pedal as indicated in the Action window. The first foot
pedal press performs a test on the laser guards, and alerts the operator that the system is
changing to Normal mode, as shown in
