3.2.7 Field set
A field set consists of one or more fields. The fields in a field set are monitored simulta‐
neousl
y.
A field set can contain various types of field.
A typical application is the use of a protective field with one or more warning fields: if a
vehicle approaches a person, a warning field triggers an optical or acoustic signal. If the
person does not react to this and the vehicle continues to approach, the safety laser
scanner detects an object in the protective field and switches the associated safety out‐
puts to the OFF state. The vehicle stops before it reaches the person.
