To ensure that the PSDI mode operation is safe and true to the application, C 4000 in con-
nection with UE 402 evaluates three machine signals:
run-on monitoring (SCC)
Run-on monitoring evaluation is optional.
bottom dead centre (MCC-BDC)
top dead centre (MCC-TDC)
On the basis of the three machine signals, the safety light curtain can identify the
machine’s current cycle phase:
Downward movement of the press. This cycle phase involves danger.
Upward movement of the press. This cycle phase does not involve danger for all
machines.
Stopping the press. This cycle phase does not involve danger provided the “Run-on
monitoring” machine signal is not followed.
The figure below clarifies the process in time with the aid of an example of the single PSDI
mode:
a Max. 150 ms after reaching the machine cycle contact MCC-TDC, the output signal
switching devices (OSSDs) fall away.
b The operator reaches into the protective field for at least 100 ms. The protective device
therefore recognizes the interruption as the PSDI.
c The protective contacts close again no longer than 200 ms after the last PSDI.
