7.6.2.7.11
Parameter Additional muting time after the ESPE is released
This parameter can be used if the
Condition for end of muting
parameter has been
configured as
With electro-sensitive protective equipment (ESPE)
. Sometimes, irregularities
in the material or transportation equipment may mean that the ESPE cannot always
detect the end of muting precisely. If this happens, you can increase the availability of
the machine by configuring an additional muting time of up to 1,000 ms.
In this case, the
Additional muting time after the ESPE is released
parameter determines the
additional muting time once the
ESPE
input has switched back to 1.
If one of the muting sensors relevant for muting end frees up, the muting sequence
is ended immediately, even if the time set for the
Additional muting time after the ESPE is
released
parameter has not yet expired.
7.6.2.7.12
Parameter Condition for end of muting
This parameter determines when a valid muting status is over:
•
With muting sensor pair
: When a muting sensor signal input in the last muting sensor
pair switches to 0 (sensor clear) and the sensor gap monitoring time has expired.
•
With electro-sensitive protective equipment (ESPE)
: When the
ESPE
input switches to 1
and therefore indicates that the protective field is clear again.
If the
ESPE
input switches to 0 at the end of muting (e.g., because the ESPE protective
field has been breached) before the next valid muting sequence begins, the
Enable
output of the function block switches to 0. In this case, the next muting cycle can only
begin once the End-of-muting condition has been met.
7.6.2.7.13
Parameter Condition of the other sensor pair for muting start
This parameter determines when the next valid muting sequence can begin after a
previous muting sequence.
Start conditions for muting:
•
Both sensors are free
: All muting sensor signal inputs = 0 and the
ESPE
input = 1 (i.e.,
the protective field is clear).
•
At least one sensor is free
: All muting sensor signal inputs except the last one = 0, the
ESPE
input = 1 (i.e., the protective field is clear).
If a higher throughput is required, it may be advisable to let the next muting sequence
begin as soon as the transported material has traveled past the protective device and
past all the muting sensors except the last one (i.e., at least one sensor is clear).

Outputs
Output elements
The
Outputs
selection window contains the following output elements:
•
Jump addresses
•
The module outputs that are in use
•
Bits of the input record of a gateway
•
Output bits for the logic results
You can use logic results to forward the results of the logic program to other
controllers via a network, e.g., using a gateway. You can use each output bit only
once.
