11. In the Multiple evaluation field specify the number of consecutive scans required for
detection.
Increasing the number of consecutive scans will increase the response time of the
safety laser scanner.
12. Select the detection capability [mm] for this safety laser scanner. Specify the value
for each configured Safety zone.
Note:
The operating range of the zones changes with the change of resolution.
Operating ranges of the safety zone
Detection capability 30 mm = 2.50 m
Detection capability 40 mm = 3 m
Detection capability 50 mm = 4 m
Detection capability ≥ 70 mm = 5.50 m
Operating ranges of the warning zone
Detection capability 30 mm = 19 m
Detection capability 40 mm = 22 m
Detection capability 50 mm = 23 m
Detection capability ≥ 70 mm = 40 m
13. Select Dust filter level (level1=low, level 3=high).
A higher level of dust filtering requires a longer safety distance.
WARNING!
Loss of safety function due to a safety distance that is too low
Depending on the application, serious injury or death may result.
} Depending on the degree of dust filtering, it is necessary to consider an
allowance for calculating the safety distance when installing the safety
laser scanner near intense light sources or reflective surfaces into ac-
count (see Distance to intense light sources and to reflective
surfaces [ 50]).
– When calculating the safety distance, ensure that the allowance is
considered depending on the dust filtering.
– Ensure that the new safety distance fulfils the specifications of the
safety assessment.
14. Click on the arrow . The next window Configure zones is opened.
Create the zones using the symbols in the tool bar on the right-hand side.
