User’s Manual
System Operation and Functions
Refer to 2-24-6. Muting Statistics Information for more information.
Standard Muting Mode
Exit-Only Muting Mode
Position Detection Muting Mode
Dynamic Muting
Make sure the Position 8 of the DIP Switch is set to Configuration Tool Enabled to activate the settings by the
Configuration Tool.
Setting the muting time limit to infinite may cause a failure of the muting sensors to go undetected, resulting in the F3SG-RA
in an unintended muting state. Conduct risk assessment analysis thoroughly before enabling this setting.
Setting the muting input time limit value (maximum) to infinite may cause a failure of the muting sensors to go
undetected, resulting in a failure of disabling the muting state. Conduct risk assessment analysis thoroughly before
enabling this setting.
Dynamic Muting can be used in conjunction with any of Standard, Exit-only and Position detection muting modes.
Refer to Safety Light Curtain Configuration Tool for Model F3SG (SD Manager 2) User’s Manual for more
information on setting this function by the Configuration Tool.
