5.3 Selectable resolution for hand, leg and body detection
The application-specific resolution of the safety sensor is defined in the configuration project together for all
protective/warning field pairs of a configuration bank.

Mounting height = Height of the scan level above floor level
5.4 Speed-dependent protective function for vehicles
For object detection in the case of mobile applications, the safety sensor evaluates the relative speed of the
object. If the safety sensor is mounted on vehicles or on moving parts of machines, the maximum speed of
the vehicle must be entered during configuration of the protective function.
The maximum vehicle speed (Max. AGV speed) is selected in the configuration project together for all pro-
tective/warning field pairs of a configuration bank.
5.5 Response time
The response time is the maximum time from a protective field violation to switch-off of the safety-related
switching outputs.
The response time is selected in the configuration project together for all protective/warning field pairs of a
configuration bank.
5.6 Configurable start-up behavior
The start-up behavior is selected in the configuration project together for all protective/warning field pairs of
a configuration bank.
5.6.1
Automatic start/restart
The machine starts automatically as soon as the machine is switched on or the supply voltage returns and
when the protective field is free again.
Using automatic start/restart
You can use the automatic start/restart function under the following prerequisites:
• The start/restart interlock function is taken over by a downstream safety-related component of the ma-
chine control system.
or:
• It is not possible to walk behind or go around the effective protective field.
Ä Allow for an optical and/or acoustic start warning.
