This section illustrates the interdependencies of the parameters on the 
press brake, PSENvip and safety system during a press stroke. The fol-
lowing parameters are illustrated:
 Status: Describes the cycle status. The upward movement of the 
press is assumed as a safe movement.
 Foot switch: Start/stop press stroke
 System-Init: Press brake is at top dead centre
 OSSD: Output signal switching devices of the PSENvip
 Protected field: Free, interrupted
 Mute 1/2: signals whether dynamic muting is activated or deactivat-
ed.
Mute 1/2 are reset to "1" when the protected field is completely ac-
tivated and the advance measuring field is free.
A protected field that has already been partly deactivated can be 
completely reactivated by
– side intervention
– the signal System-Init = 1
 Dynamic muting:
– reset: advance measuring field touches pinch point on the work-
piece
– End: Tool centre point reaches the 6 mm point
