Configurable functions
5.4.3 Scanning range of the M4000 Advanced A/P
With the M4000 Advanced A/P multiple light beam safety device you must differentiate
between the scanning range to be configured and the maximum effective scanning
r
ange.
You must configure the scanning range to be configured to suit the deflector unit used
(mirror deflection or fibre-optic deflection) (see Tab. 15).
Deflector unit used Scanning range to be configured
Mirror deflection
 M4000 Passive with mirror deflection
or
 two deflector mirrors PSK45 (see section 13.3.10
“Deflector mirror PSK45” on page 129)
or
 one mirror column (part number: 1041917, see
section 14.5 “Deflector mirrors and mirror
columns” on page 138)
Low scanning range
Fibre-optic deflection
 M4000 Passive with fibre-optic deflection
High scanning range
Device symbol M4000 Advanced (A/P), context menu Open device window, parameter
node General.
The maximum effective scanning range is dependent here on the number of deflections
between the M4000 Advanced A/P and the M4000 Passive and the number of additional
front screens used (see Tab. 16).
