your SCD software.
Configure the Protective and Warning Field
Figure 9 - Create a Field Set in the SCD Software
The SafeZone Mini device radially scans the area to be monitored. The
SafeZone Mini device cannot see through objects during this process.
Therefore, the area behind objects that are in the area to be monitored (pillars,
grilles, and so on) cannot be monitored.
Protective fields and warning field can cover up an angle of up to 270° and have
different radial scanning ranges depending on the resolution configured (see
Resolution on page 27
).
With the aid of the SCD software, you can configure the field set, which comprises a protective field (1)
and two warning fields (2). During this process, you configure the shape and size of the protective and
warning fields. You can realize any field shape required.
ATTENTION: Check the protective fields configured.
Before commissioning the machine or vehicle, check the configuration of the
protective fields using the instructions in Commissioning on page 71
and
using the Checklist to Install Electro-sensitive Protective Equipment (ESPE)
on page 97.
