9.3 DESCRIPTION OF SINGLE MODULE MUTING AND MODULAR
MUTING
With this series of barriers it is possible to specify single module muting or
modular muting function at the moment of purchase.
There follows a brief description of these two types of muting.
9.3.1 DEFINITION OF MODULE.
Module means a portion of barrier whose size can contain the amount of
optical units per module defined in the table in section 6.
For example, a SBx-600 should be considered as 4 adjacent modules, each
containing 8 optical units for a total of 32 optical units, whereas a SBx-HR-300
should be considered as 7 adjacent modules, each containing 6 optical units
for a total of 42 optical units.
Various configurations can be achieved on request, according to
requirements.
The layout of the modules is illustrated below:

9.3.2 SINGLE MODULE MUTING AND MODULAR MUTING
Single module muting enables only one module at a time to be made
transparent according to requirements, whereas modular muting makes it
possible to make the sum of two or more modules transparent, until even the
whole barrier has been bypassed.
Should a muting request be made for modules that are not managed when in
single module muting mode (for example bypassing of the 4th module with a
barrier that manages only three), the barrier will remain operational.
Please note that in single module muting is not possible to select the
module containing the optic ray placed in the opposite side opf
connector. In that case the muting function will not work properly.
Should a modular muting request also involve modules that are not managed
(for example muting of modules 1+2+3 with a barrier that manages only two),
the barrier will enter total muting mode
There follow the settings for the various muting modes.
9.3.3 SELECTION OF MODULAR MUTING MODE (STANDARD)
Single switch Modular muting
1° 2°
OFF OFF Muting of all modules (standard total muting)
OFF ON Muting of modules 1+2+3
ON OFF Muting of modules 1+2
ON ON Muting of modules 1
9.3.4 SELECTION OF SINGLE MODULE MUTING
Single switch Muting of single module
1° 2°
OFF OFF Muting of module 1
OFF ON Muting of module 2
ON OFF Muting of module 3
ON ON Muting of module 4
WARNING
In every unit are present two different dip-switch banks and that two
banks must be set in the same way.
x The modular muting function with all modules activated is setted by
factory as default.
