Safety Function

The 450L safety light curtain offers a range of functions that are integral to the 
safety system. The functions are selected through DIP switch settings on the 
receiver plug-in.

A confirmation of a new configuration at the receiver stick is only required if 
the stick was previously operated with another DIP switch setting or with 
another plug-in type (see 

Confirmation of a New System Configuration on 

page 59

).

A confirmation of a new configuration at the transmitter stick is only required 
if the stick was previously operated with another beam coding (see 

Beam 

Coding on page 27

).

Some safety functions can only be selected with the 450L-E safety light curtain. 
A complete overview is provided in 

Table 1 on page 11

.

Start Modes

The four start modes are configurable for all GuardShield™ product lines (450L 
PAC and both 450L-B and 450L-E POC safety light curtain product lines). 
Manual reset options are only provided for 8-pin connection plug-ins. 5-pin 
plug-ins have only the automatic (re)start option.

Automatic (Re) Start (Default)

When in the automatic start mode of operation (also known as Guard only 
mode), the light curtain operates as an on/off device. The OSSD outputs switch 
off, according to an interruption of the sensing field, and automatically switch 
on when the protective field is cleared. The GuardShield pairs that are 
equipped with bottom plug-ins and factory-default DIP switch settings work 
in Automatic Start mode.

ATTENTION: 

The protective system must be tested for proper operation after 

each change to the configuration.

IMPORTANT

The Start button can also be used to power cycle a receiver stick if 
there is a lockout. A receiver stick performs the power off/on cycle if 
the input of the Start button is activated for a minimum of 10 seconds, 
but not longer than 20 seconds. This function is also available if 
automatic start is configured for receiver plug-ins, which allow a start 
mode selection, see 

Restart Button on page 91

 for additional installation 

hints.
