Testing the light path between sender and receiver
Prior to covering each light beam with a test rod, check whether …
– the green LED lights up on the M4000 with de-activated internal restart interlock.
– the yellow LED lights up on the M4000 with activated internal restart interlock
(“Reset required”).
If this is not the case, ensure that this condition is reached. The test is otherwise
meaningless.
Only M4000 Advanced:
Completely cover each light beam with a test rod that is not transparent to light (at
least 30 mm diameter) at the following positions:
– immediately in front of the sender
– in the middle between sender and receiver (or between the deflector mirrors)
– immediately in front of the receiver
– when using deflector mirrors: immediately before and after the deflector
Only M4000 Advanced A/P:
Completely cover each light beam with a test rod that is not transparent to light (at
least 30 mm diameter). Hold the test rod in the following positions with your arm
outstretched:
– immediately in front of the M4000 Advanced A/P
– in the middle between M4000 Advanced A/P and M4000 Passive or another mirror
deflection (e.g. deflector mirror PSK45)
– immediately in front of the M4000 Passive or another mirror deflection (e.g. deflector
mirror PSK45)
– when using deflector mirrors between M4000 Advanced A/P and M4000 Passive:
immediately before and after the deflector
Only M4000 Area 60/80:
Use a test rod that is not transparent to light and that has the following diameters:
– 60 mm for the M4000 Area 60
– 80 mm for the M4000 Area 80
Guide the test rod along the entire length of the area monitored:
– immediately in front of the sender
– in the middle between sender and receiver
– immediately in front of the receiver
This must produce the following result:
• On the receiver for the related multiple light beam safety device only the red LED is
allowed to illuminate and not the green or yellow LED
and
• as long as the light beam is interrupted, it must not be possible to initiate the
dangerous state.
