Chapter 9 Example Operational Sequence Diagrams
Sequence Diagram
Figure 43 shows the sequence of operations. This diagram assumes that all
components are operating properly and no faults are present.

Sequence Steps
The following steps describe each of the highlighted points in Figure 43.
1. 24V DC power is applied to the safety system. The safety devices
perform their internal tests.
2. The GLP safety relay begins its Frequency Measurement Time to check
the proximity sensor speed.
3. After the GLP safety relay determines the speed is below the SLS2
setting, the X14/X24/L11 outputs turn ON and the unlock delay timer
starts. If the proximity sensor speed is greater than SLS1 upon power-up,
the GLP safety relay keeps the gate locked and maintains its outputs in
the OFF state.
4. The 51/L61 outputs turn ON and unlock the gate.
5. You press the Start button. The machine begins to accelerate and the
proximity sensors generate pulses.
