•
Application diagnostic output status information
•
Device information and device status
•
Configuration of the device
•
Status of each individual light beam
•
Error history
•
Reasons for the last lockout
The following information can be controlled via IO-link:
•
LED signal behavior of the field indicator

3.2.10 Near Field Communication (NFC)
Overview
T
he receiver of the safety light curtainhas an integrated NFC interface for transmitting
diagnostic data of the protective device to an NFC-capable device.
The integrated NFC interface is intended for temporary use.
Diagnostic data
Y
ou can access the diagnostic data in any operational status of the protective device.
The following diagnostic data can be displayed in an NFC-capable device:
•
Device-specific information of the protective device, e.g. name, serial number, type
code
•
Information on configuration, e.g. whether the restart interlock is activated
•
Current status of the protective device, e.g. status of the OSSDs, quality of the
alignment
•
Error diagnostics with specification of the error code, error description, diagnostic
LED and error correction
An NFC-capable antenna is integrated behind the front screen of the safety light curtain
for transmitting the data. The area is marked with the NFC-symbol.
