Press the foot pedal. The press beam will descend in crawl speed and halt at the
obstruction. The SET button will then change colour to green, which indicates that the mute
point can now be set, as seen in Figure 6-6.
Note:
During the mute setting stroke the press beam is restricted to slow speed to
ensure that the mute point is accurately detected. Also, only an obstruction to the
front or middle guarding regions will allow the mute point to be confirmed and set.
Release the foot pedal. The Status screen changes to a red background, and prompts the
operator to CONFIRM MUTE POINT - PRESS SET BUTTON, as shown in Figure 6-7. (If an
external mute lamp has been installed, the lamp will light).
