Warning: NO OPTICAL PROTECTION IN TOOL SET-UP MODE
In Tool Set-up Mode the laser is ON, but the optical protection is disabled.
Although the Sentinel Plus Press Brake Guarding System will ensure that the
machine does not exceed safe speed if the sensors are obstructed, particular
caution must be exercised.
Tool Setup mode is password protected and only accessible to operators with Supervisor
level access. When the TOOL SETUP button is pressed the screen prompts the operator to
enter the Supervisor access code, as shown in Figure 6-17.
If the code is correct the panel proceeds to the Tool Setup mode screen, and the Sentinel
Plus system will now behave as detailed in Section 3.10. If an external mute lamp has
been installed it will be switched ON to indicate that optical protection has been de-
activated.
