Safety-Related Function SOS with Open Guard Door

General

A typical scenario for using the safety-related function SOS in the machine operating mode Automatic Mode includes opening of the guard door during operation of the machine. As long as the guard door is open and access to the zone of operation is possible, the standstill position is monitored with the safety-related function SOS. Regular operation is to be resumed when the guard door is closed again.
