Configurable functions
Vertical operation
In vertical operation (for access protection and hazardous point protection) according to
I
EC 61496<3 you must always configure the protective fields used with the contour as
reference function.
Use lateral, vertical boundaries of the opening (e.g. door frame) and the floor as reference.
If in this case the position of the S300 is changed in one or more planes, the distance to
the reference changes and the S300 switches its OSSDs to the OFF state.
4.10 Monitoring cases
The S300 supports a configuration with multiple monitoring cases. By switching the moni-
toring case you can switch to different monitoring conditions in the case of a change to the
monitoring situation.
WARNING
Ensure for each monitoring case that the minimum distance to the hazardous area is
maintained!
See chapter 5 “Mounting” on page 56.
The number of monitoring cases that can be configured is dependent on the variant and
on the control. The following table shows the number of monitoring cases:
