Product description
Sender and receiver automatically synchronise themselves optically during switching on.
During this process the first and last beam are used as synchronisation beams. For this
reason one of the two beams must be clear on switch on. During operation, these two
beams are then allowed to also be covered at the same time (not during goods detec-
tion).
configurable signal output (ADO) for improved availability
status display with 7Esegment display
two virtual photoelectric switches in the protective field for determining the position of
the pallet/the skid (saves additional photoelectric switches). Output via the EFI protocol,
in the case of devices with extension connection the output signals can also be sampled
there.
operating mode switching (only in conjunction with SICK switching amplifier, e.g.
UE402)
range of functions can be expanded using switching amplifiers in the SICK sens:Control
product family
3.1.2 C4000 Fusion
The C4000 Fusion has the following additional properties:
laser in the sender that can switched on electro-sensitively, to make alignment easier
with large protective field widths
With horizontal operation
customer-specific blanking for object pattern recognition, as a result differentiation
between complex objects in the protective field plane (e.g. transport skids) and other
objects, in particular people
With vertical operation
high availability in protective operation in soiled environments due to reduced resolution
and multiple sampling
access protection with detection of geometrically even objects
hazardous point protection with up to five blanked areas
teaching-in the number, size and position of the blanked areas with the aid of a key-
operated pushbutton for teach-in
