Mode select input
This function is for connecting devices with a mode select function, such as a selector switch.
As shown in Fig. 5-9, this function is comprised of 2 input receiving circuits (X
n
, X
n+1
), 1 drive
circuit (T
n
), and functional output (TEACH, AUTO).

Connects to
Mode selecting device such as a selector switch or a rotary switch
Note: This cannot be connected to a safety light curtain or any other safety solid state output.
Description of operation
The operation timing is described in Fig. 5-10.
I-1 When a safety check signal from the drive circuit (T
n
) is supplied to 1 of the receiving circuits
(X
n+1
), and the other receiving circuit (X
n
) is OFF, the output “AUTO” is turned ON.
I-2 When a safety check signal from the drive circuit (T
n
) is supplied to 1 of the receiving circuits
(X
n
), and the other receive circuit (X
n+1
) is OFF, the output “TEACH” is turned ON.
Ⅱ-1
When both receiving circuits are OFF, both of outputs “TEACH” and “AUTO” are turned
OFF. (Ex. The selector switch is in the intermediate position.)
Ⅱ-2
When both receiving circuits are ON, both of outputs “TEACH” and “AUTO” are turned
OFF. And if the input monitoring error detection time is exceeded during the time both
receiving circuits are ON, an input monitoring error is detected.
Ⅲ
If safety check signals are not supplied correctly to the receiving circuits due to an error in
the selected mode device or input circuit, the output is turned OFF immediately. Status of
the error is displayed by the error LED, input LEDs, and the monitoring output. (Ex. Fault in
selector switch or wiring error)
