What causes a SICK microScan3 Scanner to show a 'Current too high at an OSSD' error, and how to fix it?
If the current is too high at an OSSD because the limit has been exceeded for the current allowed short-term or permanently, check the connected switching element.
Why does SICK Scanner show a dazzle warning?
If your SICK Scanner is showing a dazzle warning, it indicates that an external light source might be interfering with the scan plane. To resolve this, check for any potential light sources and then remove or cover them.
What to do if my SICK Scanner has OSSD short-circuit to 24 V?
If there is a short-circuit to 24 V at an OSSD, check the wiring.
What happens if SICK microScan3 measures no values within the distance measurement range?
If your SICK Scanner's tamper protection is activated because it measures no values within the distance measurement range in an area of at least 90°, all safety outputs will be in the OFF state.
What happens when tamper protection activates on SICK microScan3?
If your SICK Scanner's tamper protection is activated because it's not detecting a contour within the set tolerance band, all safety outputs will be in the OFF state.
What to do if SICK Security Sensors show correctable error (e.g. CIP connection interrupted)?
If there is a correctable error such as a CIP connection interruption, reestablish the CIP connection.
What should I do if there's a fault in the system plug of my SICK Security Sensors?
If the system plug has an internal fault, try performing a device restart using the display or Safety Designer, or interrupt the voltage supply for at least two seconds. If that doesn't work, replace the system plug.
What to do if there is a fault in the safety laser scanner of SICK Security Sensors?
If there is a fault in the safety laser scanner, perform a device restart using the display or Safety Designer, or interrupt the voltage supply for at least two seconds. If the issue persists, replace the safety laser scanner and send it to the manufacturer for repair.
How to restart SICK microScan3 when safety function stopped?
If the safety function on your SICK Scanner has stopped and all safety outputs are in the OFF state, you can restart the device using the keypad or Safety Designer.
Why is my SICK microScan3 Scanner showing an incompatible configuration and what should I do?
If the configuration in the system plug does not match the device’s functionality, check the device variant. You may need to replace or reconfigure the device.
