T
he status of the protective fields and warning fields is transmitted using EFI and can
be combined in the Flexi Soft safety controller as required. It does not matter, here,
whether the devices are connected to the same EFI string or different ones. The signal
of the Flexi Soft safety controller safety outputs is transmitted, for example, to a
machine or vehicle controller.
The monitoring cases that have been configured in the safety laser scanner can be
switched using the programmed logic blocks of the Flexi Soft safety controller.
If, for example, incremental encoders are used for measuring speed, these can, for
example, be connected to an S3000 Expert. The speed signals are then distributed to
all safety laser scanners via EFI.
To configure and diagnose the S300 Mini Remote, the PC is connected to the configura‐
tion connection of the Flexi Soft safety controller, the respective EFI partner device, or
directly to the S300 Mini Remote.
