SICK microScan3 User Manual

3.3.6 Monitoring case
A monitoring case signals the machine status to the safety laser scanner. The safety
la
ser scanner activates the field set, which is assigned to the monitoring case and
therefore a particular machine status.
If a machine, e.g., has various operational statuses, a monitoring case can be assigned
to each operational status. The safety laser scanner receives a defined signal for the
current operational status via the safety-related network. If there is a change of signal,
the safety laser scanner switches from one monitoring case to the monitoring case that
is assigned to the new signal (as well as the new operational status). Generally, one
field set is assigned to each monitoring case.
