22 Section 7: Muting and override functions
7-7 Override
This function makes it possible to override or bypass the system. It is used to start up the machine after
the material has interrupted one or more of the SLC beams and to free the protected area from any ma-
terial that is present in front of the SLC,
If a pallet has stopped in front of the protected area, it will not be possible to restart the conveyor belt be-
cause the SLC detects one or more beams have been interrupted and therefore will not close the outputs;
therefore the protected area cannot be cleared.
However, it can be cleared if the override function is enabled.
This function can be used for all SLCs with the LMS muting indicator connected, as described in section 3.
7-7-1 Enabling the Override Function
• Switch the appliance off.
• Switch it on again and press the test/restart button within 5 seconds, keeping it pressed for at least 5
seconds.
• The override function is now enabled. The LMS muting indicator flashes to signal the exclusion of the
SLC.
• The maximum duration of the override function is 120 seconds, after which the SLC is reset, even if the
button is kept pressed. Naturally, if the button is released before this, the override function will terminate
immediately.
