4.3 Operating mode of the S3000
U
sing the CDS user software, the following parameters are to be set:

Definition of the type of restart:
– Provided complete monitoring of the area in front of the industrial truck is possible
(see Tab. 1):
– Without a time delay if the maximum distance from the middle of the S3000 to the
front of the shelf on the left or right is D
S3000–Shelf
 150 cm.
– Time delayed by 2 s if the maximum distance from the middle of the S3000 to the
front of the shelf on the left or right is 150 < D
S3000–Shelf
 250 cm.
– With restart interlock if it is possible to stand behind the protective field in front of
the industrial truck due to the mounting position of the S3000.
 Definition of the application variant: mobile
Note that setting multiple sampling will have an effect on the response time of the scanner
and therefore on the stopping distance of the industrial truck.
4.4 Dimensioning of the protective field
The size of the protective field is defined by means of
 the length of the protective field at which the industrial truck comes to a standstill under
all conditions before the load or the vehicle contour come into contact with people.
Maximum protective field radii of up to 4.0 m (S3000-S), up to 5.5 m (S3000-M) and up
to 7.0 m (S3000-L) can be programmed.
 the protective field width at which people or the test object in accordance with Fig. 3 are
reliably detected in the boundary area in front of the shelf. The unmonitored area of
width D
PFFShelf
(see Fig. 2) between the protective field and the front of the shelf is
necessary due to the angular error on the industrial truck and the measuring accuracy
of the S3000 and should be as small as possible.
 definitive for the dimensions of the protective field is the final test on the reliability of
detection in accordance with section 4.6 “Commissioning” on page 15.
