7.7.2 Parameters for the safety laser scanner
Overview
T
his is where you configure the parameters for the safety laser scanner.
Scan cycle time
Y
ou can configure the scan cycle time. The scan cycle time of the safety laser scanner
affects the response time and the protective field range.
Devices with a max. protective field range of 4.0 m and devices with max. protective
field range of 5.5 m:
•
40 ms: Full protective field range, increased availability in dusty conditions, for
example
•
30 ms: Smaller protective field range with shorter response time
Devices with a max. protective field range of 9.0 m:
•
50 ms: Full protective field range, increased availability in dusty conditions, for
example
•
40 ms: Smaller protective field range with shorter response time
b
Select scan cycle time.
✓
The resulting response time and the range of the fields are shown.
Additional interference protection
If y
ou mount several safety laser scanners in close proximity to each other, this can
lead to mutual interference. You will prevent mutual interference in neighboring safety
laser scanners if you choose different settings for interference protection.
Modes 1 to 4 are available. Interference protection influences the scan cycle time and
therefore the response time.
•
Mode 1 = + 0 ms per scan cycle
•
Mode 2 = + 1 ms per scan cycle
•
Mode 3 = + 2 ms per scan cycle
•
Mode 4 = + 3 ms per scan cycle
b
Configure a different mode for each safety laser scanner that is mounted in close
proximity.
✓
The resulting response time is shown.
Complementary information
NOTE
The response time of the safety laser scanner depends on the scan cycle time, interfer‐
ence protection, and multiple sampling, see "Response times", page 131. In addition
to the response time of the safety laser scanner, further signal transmission and
processing also influence the time until the end of the dangerous state.
A graphic shows how the configuration affects the available ranges.
