Term Description
A Accumulated load switching frequency Total number of operations of a load to be connected to the F3SG-SR, from
when the F3SG-SR is first energized until the present time.
Allowable Beams Dynamic Muting: Area(s) (or beam(s)) to be added in a Dynamic Muting zone,
in order to prevent an accidental interruption of the F3SG-SR due to vibration.
Fixed/Floating Blanking: Beam(s) in a Blanking zone, that are not monitored by
the Blanking Monitoring function.
Allowable delay time The allowable amount of time difference from when the state of the Safety
outputs changes until the state of an external relay changes. The F3SG-SR
enters the LOCKOUT state if this time is exceeded.
Auto reset mode Mode that disables Start Interlock and Restart Interlock. The Safety outputs are
turned ON when no object is detected in the detection zone.
Auxiliary output Function to give output signal according to the settings. This must not be used
for safety applications.
B Blanking zone Area in the detection zone of the F3SG-SR, where the Fixed Blanking or the
Floating Blanking is enabled.
C Configuration Tool Setting tool that allows the user to make settings to the F3SG-SR with a PC.
D Designated beam output Function to signal the state of user-designated beam(s) to the Auxiliary output
or Lamp. To use the function, target beam(s) must be designated.
Designated beam output information Information on the beam state of user-designated beam(s) to be signaled to the
Auxiliary output or Lamp. To signal the information, the Designated beam
output information must be assigned to an output destination.
Dynamic muting Function to configure a new muting zone after muting is enabled based on a
result measuring a workpiece height for a certain period of time.
E Effective aperture angle (EAA) Range of angles in which the F3SG-SR can operate.
Excess power-on time information Information to be signaled to the Auxiliary output or Lamp when the power-on
time exceeds the power-on time threshold value. To signal the information, the
Power-On Time information must be assigned to an output destination.
Exit-only muting delay time Time difference from when the signal of Muting input A or B is turned OFF until
the Muting state is cancelled.
Exit-only muting mode Muting mode to be used for such an application where objects move from the
inside to the outside of the hazardous zone.
External device monitoring function (EDM) Function to monitor the operation of an N.C. contacts of external relays (or
contactors) that control the hazardous zone of a machine, for any malfunctions
such as welding.
External test Function that stops emission at a specified time to check that the Safety outputs
are being properly turned OFF.
F Fixed blanking Function to disable part of the detection zone of the F3SG-SR and keep the
Safety outputs in the ON state even if an object blocks the disabled detection
zone.
Fixed blanking monitoring function Function to bring the F3SG-SR in the LOCKOUT state when part of the Fixed
Blanking zone is unblocked.
Floating blanking Function to disable a specified number of beams in the detection zone of the
F3SG-SR, and keep the Safety outputs in the ON state even if an object smaller
than the dimension of the specified number of beams blocks the F3SG-SR.
Floating blanking monitoring function Function to bring the F3SG-SR in the LOCKOUT state if the number of blocked
beams is smaller than specified.
I Interlock Information to be signaled to the Auxiliary output or Lamp when the F3SG-SR
is in the Interlock is state. To signal the information, the Interlock information
must be assigned to an output destination.
Interlock Information Provides output through auxiliary output if interlock input is ON. Note that
interlock information must be assigned to the destination.
