Product description
3.2.3 Monitoring cases
Depending on the I/O module used (see section “I/O modules” on page 22) up to 32
monitoring cases can be defined and selected during operation using local static or
dynamic control inputs or via EFI. In this way process-dependent hazardous area
protection or velocity-dependent vehicle monitoring is possible for example.
Simultaneous monitoring
Depending on the field mode selected, on the S3000 either simultaneous monitoring of
two fields sets each with one protective field and one warning field (dual field mode) or
with two protective fields (dual protective field mode) is possible, or a field set with one
protective field and two warning fields (triple field mode) can be monitored.
Using simultaneous monitoring, the S3000 can monitor two field sets simultaneously
(e.g. hazardous area on the left and hazardous area on the right). In conjunction with a
Flexi Soft safety controller, which provides several pairs of OSSD, e.g. two machines can be
protected independently of each other using only one S3000.
