10.4.1 Replacing the safety laser scanner without system plug
In many cases, you can reuse the existing bracket and the existing system plug. Detach
t
he defective safety laser scanner from the bracket and the system plug. Then, mount
the new safety laser scanner on the bracket and the system plug. When the new safety
laser scanner is switched on for the first time, it reads the configuration from the sys‐
tem plug and can be used without having to be reconfigured.
Approach
1. Make sure that the environment is clean and clear of fog, moisture, and dust.
2. Unscrew screws in the system plug and remove the system plug from the defective
safety laser scanner.
3. Unscrew the fixing screws and remove the defective safety laser scanner.
4. Mount the system plug on the new safety laser scanner, see "Replacing the system
plug", page 133.
5. Mount the new safety laser scanner, see "Mounting", page 63.
6. Check the effectiveness of the protective device.
°
Generally, the protective device is checked exactly as during commissioning,
see "Thorough check", page 119.
°
If, during project planning, the possible tolerances of the devices have been
considered and it is ensured that neither the configuration nor the wiring or
the alignment of the safety laser scanner have been changed, a function test
is sufficient, see "Thorough check of the principal function of the protective
device", page 60.
