5.4.4 Scanning range of the M4000 Area 60/80
The scanning range of the M4000 Area 60/80 multiple light beam safety device is depen-
dent on the related resolution and the beam separation.
Additional front screens reduce the scanning range. Pay attention to the related maximum
scanning range dependent of the number of additional front screens in Tab. 17 and
Tab. 18.
M4000 Area 60
You can set the M4000 Area 60 multiple light beam safety device to two different scan-
ning ranges. The effective scanning range is dependent here upon the dimension of the
light path between sender and receiver and the number of additional front screens used.
You will find the necessary scanning ranges and the resulting setting in Tab. 17.
The following scanning ranges are available:
low scanning range (0.5-6 m)
high scanning range (5-19 m)
Device symbol M4000 Area (receiver), context menu Open device window, parameter
node General.

1 0.5-5.5 m 5.0-17.4 m
2 0.5-5.0 m 5.0-15.9 m
M4000 Area 80
You can set the M4000 Area 80 multiple light beam safety device to two different scan-
ning ranges. The effective scanning range is dependent here upon the dimension of the
light path between sender and receiver and the number of additional front screens used.
You will find the necessary scanning ranges and the resulting setting in Tab. 18.
The following scanning ranges are available:
low scanning range (0.5-20 m)
high scanning range (9-70 m)

On the utilisation of this protective field width, it must be expected the orange LED will illuminate (cleaning or
realignment required). The system then only has a reserve of 30%.
