Safeguarding of Control Signals (1/3) Problem and Solution: Safe activation of a function in COMPACTplus by safety circuit at L3/L4, that monitors in parallel to (de-)activating a function the correct timing and short circuit protection Changeover is safe if L3 and L4 are controlled by a manual action, but NOT by a standard PLC +24V L3 0V L4
Example: Activation / Deactivation of reduced resolution 2-level change-over switch connected to L3 and L4, where polarity changes simultaneous One of the signals is used additionally as control signal for reduced resolution OSSD is off
when the safety circuit is open in case of simultaneousness errors or short circuits at L3/L4

Safeguarding of Control Signals (2/3)
SafetyLab Settings:
„Basic I/O Configuration“: 2-channel Safety circuit L3 and L4 Safety circuit is considered as closed in both positions L3=0V and L4 = 24V L3=24V and L4 = 0V OSSD are on in both switch positions, as long as the protective field is free

Sequential Muting with Detection of Persons in unallowed Areas (1/5) Problem: On the same body shop line in the car industry short and long car body are produced (for example VW Golf and Passat) The robot cells are protected by light curtains with sequential muting Muting sensors must be adjusted at the long body to make the application run Persons behind the short body could thus get undetected into the danger zone These Persons shall be detected
Area behind the body carrier forbidden for persons Leuze electronic | COMPACTplus Application Examples | 10/2007
Sequential Muting with Detection of Persons in unallowed Areas (2/5) Solution: Positioning of muting sensors, when the carrier (blue) is shorter than the body (gray) Detection of the feet of a person using a beam signals over a beam zone at the bottom, i.e. definition of a Beam Signal just for some beams at the bottom side of the light curtain Evaluation of the Beam Signal only with a certain combination of sensor signals, i.e. at a certain position where the short body has ended and the long body is still in the curtain
MS1 MS2 (L3) (L1)
MS3 MS4 (L2) (L4)
Leuze electronic | COMPACTplus Application Examples | 10/2007
Sequential Muting with Detection of Persons in unallowed Areas (3/5) Solution: Checking for persons (feet) behind the body when MS1 is free and muting is still active, i.e. evaluation of the Beam Signal only when MS1=free; MS3 and MS4 = interrupted Muting stays active as long as NOT: (MS1 = inactive) & (MS3 = active) & (MS4 = active) & (Beam Signal = active = Person detected)

Control of Partial Muting Zones on Run-Time by 2 Sensors (1/6) Problem: On a conveyor line pallets with different load heights are moving to a wrapper station The wrapper is safeguarded by a light curtain with muting The pallets can be distinguished in low load and high load types On low load pallets persons could sit and drive into the danger zone Those persons shall be detected while high load pallets shall pass
low load Leuze electronic | COMPACTplus Application Examples | 10/2007
high load
Control of Partial Muting Zones on Run-Time by 2 Sensors (2/6) Solution: In the high side protective field a beam signal prevents muting -> partial muting There is one pair of muting sensors at the low side to mute the bottom part There is another pair of sensors at the high side to enable high load pallets to pass

Control of Partial Muting Zones on Run-Time by 2 Sensors (3/6) Solution: Static partial muting can be implemented by beam signal and muting enable input Dynamic partial muting as required is basically not implemented in CPR-m -> additional means have to be used The required sensor logic is: high-side sensor 1 high-side sensor 2 Beam Signal

A: 1 = big object detected correctly
1
B: 1 = big object or person detected
If line A is 1, the state of B doesn’t matter to keep C at 1 If line A is 0, line B must also be 0 to keep C at 1

C: Muting enable
Control of Partial Muting Zones on Run-Time by 2 Sensors (4/6) Solution: AND logic between the 2 sensor inputs is realized by “Indication signal combination” using ORed dark switching and ORed light switching outputs of PRK light barriers For HRT use inverse logic Simultaneousness can not be monitored in this way !! Signal A at output M4 is 1 if both sensors have switched correctly the dark switching output ON (i.e. L3=1) and the light switching output to OFF (i.e. L4=0) In case of a sensor output or detection failure, output M4 is 0 dark switching output light switching output L3

Control of Partial Muting Zones on Run-Time by 2 Sensors (5/6) Solution: AND logic between the 2 sensor inputs is realized in “Indication signal combination” using dark switching and light switching outputs of the light barriers OR logic is realized by 2 diodes in the end cap M2 is used as “Muting enable” input of the “Muting” function M3 and M4 are set to “Output”, i.e. state is read back safely and linked with OSSD Verify how “Output” works with the demo set by setting L2 as “Output”, bringing for example “Protective field free” at L2-Out, leaving the switch L2 at 1 and interrupting the protective field
