Dual channel NO/NC input
This function is for connecting safety devices with dual channel NO/NC mechanisms, such as
non-contact interlock switches. As shown in Fig. 5-5, this function is comprised of a dual channel
input receiving circuit (X
n
, X
n+1
), a drive circuit (T
n
, T
n+1
), and a functional output (I
n
). Because
safety devices comprised of NO and NC contacts are connected, during normal operation, 1 of the
dual channel inputs is ON while the other is OFF.

Connects to
Safety devices with NO/NC contacts, such as non-contact interlock switches.
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. 5-6.
I
When a safety check signal from 1 of the 2 drive circuits (T
n+1
) is supplied to the
corresponding receiving circuit (X
n+1
) and the other receiving circuit (X
n
) is OFF, the output is
turned ON. (Ex. Guard is closed.)
II
When a safety check signal from 1 of the 2 drive circuits (T
n
) is supplied to the corresponding
receiving circuit (X
n
), and the other receiving circuit (X
n+1
) is OFF, the output is turned OFF.
(Ex. Guard is opened.)
III
If safety check signals are not supplied correctly to the receiving circuits, due to an error in
the safety device or input circuit, the output is turned OFF immediately. Status of any
detected error is displayed on the error LED, input LEDs and monitoring output. (Ex. Fault in
the non-contact Interlock switch)
