Muting Function Block Diagrams
The Muting function block temporarily disables the light-interruption
signal (AOPD input) in a light curtain while the muting sensor is being
triggered. While the muting function is operating, machine operation
is not stopped, so an object can be removed from the light curtain’s
detection zone. In addition, the Muting function block has an override
function that can disable the light-interruption signal of the light
curtain and cause the machine to operate while the light of the light
curtain is obstructed. For example, when an object has stopped in the
light curtain’s detection zone, the machine can be operated in order to
remove the object.
