Project
•
Pr
oject name: the same name should be chosen for all devices in the project
•
Application name: this name can be the same for a number of devices in the
project. It highlights that these devices realize an application together, by respond‐
ing to one another for example.

Checksums
A c
hecksum is used as a unique identification for a configuration. Using the checksum,
it is possible to work out whether a setup was changed or whether two devices have the
same configuration.
The checksum of the configuration in the project may not match the checksum in the
device, for example if a field geometry has been modified, but not yet transmitted to the
device.

Measurement data
S
hows the measurement data when a device is connected.
Display
S
hows the status of the display and LEDs when a device is connected.
Establishing connection
1.
Check whether the safety laser scanner is connected correctly.
2. Click on Connect in the toolbar.
✓
Safety Designer establishes the connection to the safety laser scanner.
21)
If t
he device is only connected via the network and has no network address, Safety Designer can find the device but cannot establish a
connection to it. You first need to assign the device a valid network address.
