NOTE
W
hen configuring the monitoring cases in the CDS, you must cover all possible or
allowed speeds of the vehicle. An undefined speed will result in the safety outputs
being switched to the OFF state or the device signaling Protective field interrupted. You can
use this function, for example, for safe maximum speed monitoring on vehicles.

7.11.3 Speed routing via EFI
Overview
If se
veral safety laser scanners are connected to a Flexi Soft safety controller, then a
speed routing can be configured. This enables the speed information determined using
incremental encoders to be distributed to all safety laser scanners. The speed informa‐
tion can come, for example, from an S3000 Professional or Expert or an S300 Profes‐
sional or Expert.

Incremental encoders 2 ar
e connected to the S300 Expert on EFI1.1 1. These incre‐
mental encoders generate the necessary speed signals. The Flexi Soft safety controller
4 distributes the signals to all four safety laser scanners (1 and 5 as well as 3 and
6). The signals are available on all four safety laser scanners for monitoring case
switching.
