2-12. Muting
Muting function temporarily disables safety function of the F3SG-RA, keeping safety output ON even if beams
are interrupted. This makes it possible to install safety light curtains for AGV passage, enabling both safety
and productivity. When muting, the top-beam-state indicator (TOP), bottom-beam-state indicator (BTM) and
external indicator (if wired) connected to the auxiliary output blink to notify people in the surrounding zone that
the safety functions are disabled.
The following three operation modes are available for the muting function.
1.Standard Muting Mode (factory default setting)
2.Exit-Only Muting Mode
3.Position Detection Muting Mode
Refer to 2-1. Combination of Functions for more information on the use in conjunction with other functions.
The Muting is not available for the F3SG-RE.
The following settings are available for a beam range to be the muting state.
• All Range Disabled Setting
• Partially Disabled Setting
• Dynamic Muting Setting
The muting and override functions disable the safety functions of the device. You must ensure
safety using other method when these functions are operating.
Install muting sensors so that they can distinguish between the object that is being allowed to be
passed through the detection zone and a person.
If the muting function is activated by the detection of a person, it may result in serious injury.
