Safe state
In the safe state, the accordingly configured safe switching outputs are in the OFF state.
The safe state is initiated in the following cases:
•
The muting function is not correctly terminated because the detected object is too
short or too long.
•
The muting function is not correctly initiated.
•
Deviation from preset timing detected.
•
Deviation from preset sequence detected.
•
When the muting function is active, the connection between the higher-level con‐
trol and the safety controller is interrupted.
•
When the muting function is inactive, the connection between the higher-level con‐
trol and the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device is interrupted.
•
When the muting function is inactive, the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device
detects an object.
•
The voltage supply of the higher-level control, the Type 4 electro-sensitive protec‐
tive device or the safety controller is interrupted.
•
Internal fault detected in the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device.
•
Internal fault detected in the safety controller or one of its components.
When the safety system initiates the safe state, the machine manufacturer and user
must ensure that the safe switching outputs are evaluated appropriately and that the
hazard is rectified.
