4 Configuration and diagnostic software SensorStudio
To start up a safety sensor in your application, the safety sensor must be set up according to its specific
use using the configuration and diagnostic software. The software is used to set up the safety configuration
of the safety sensor, to change the communication and diagnostics settings and to perform diagnostic rou-
tines. Communication takes place via the PC.
The software is designed according to the FDT/DTM concept:
• You make the individual configurations for the safety sensor in the Device Type Manager (DTM).
• The individual DTM configurations of a project can be called up via the frame application of the Field
Device Tool (FDT).
• Each device DTM has a communication DTM that sets up and monitors the communication connec-
tions to the sensor.
NOTICE
Only use the software for safety sensors manufactured by Leuze.
