1.6 Safety instructions
When commissioning and programming positioning systems, you must observe the safety regulations in
the manuals and operating instructions for the components used.
The user must make sure that there is nobody within the positioning range of the connected actuators or
axis systems. Access to the possible danger area must be prevented by suitable measures such as
barriers and warning signs.
Warning
Electrical axes can move with high force and at high speed. Collisions can lead to serious injury
to people and damage to components.
• Make sure that nobody can place their hand in the positioning range of the axes or other
connected actuators and that there are no objects in the positioning path while the system is
still connected to a power supply.
Warning
Parameterisation errors can cause injury to people and damage to property.
• Only enable the controller if the axis system has been installed and parameterised by
technically qualified staff.
