Chapter 6 Installation and Wiring
is an example of a muting application that connects the 450L-E safety
light curtain with a 5-pin transmitter plug-in (catalog number 450L-APT-PW-
5) and an 8-pin receiver plug-in (catalog number 450L-APR-MU-8) to an SI
safety relay (catalog number 440R-S12R12).
T-connector
If a safety light curtain system has an Rx and a Tx plug-in with M12 5-pin
connectors, then a T-connector can also be used to design and connect the
system (see
Figure 74 - Wiring with T-connector 1485P-RDR5.
For the description of the pins, see
.
The T-connector can also be used to attach a 450L safety light curtain system to
GuardLink technology (see
www.rockwellautomation.com/en-us/products/
hardware/allen-bradley/safety-products/guardlink-technology.html
).
GuardLink Tap Connections
shows an example for connecting a 450L-B safety light
curtain with 5-pin transmitter and 5-pin receiver plug-ins to a 440S-SF5D
GuardLink tap. A 1485P-RDR5 splitter (see
) allows both the
receiver and transmitter to be connected to one tap. The firmware for the 450L
safety light curtain transceiver stick working as a transmitter must be 2.001 or
larger. The firmware level can be found on product label (see
ATTENTION:
Verify that the connected power supply is able to source both
connected sticks simultaneously (Power Consumption, see
The 450L safety light curtain transceiver stick working as a transmitter must
have firmware 2.001 or higher.
