Configurable functions
4.3.3 Angular resolution and maximum protective field range
You can configure two angular resolutions:
At 0.5° angular resolution the basic response time is 60 ms.
At 0.25° angular resolution the basic response time is 120 ms.
The angular resolution has an influence on the maximum protective field range and the
basic response time (see section 4.3.1 “Resolution” on page 38 and section 4.3.2 “Basic
response time” on page 38).
The maximum protective field range of the S3000 must be sufficient to cover the
calculated protective field size including the necessary supplements (see section 5.1.1
“Protective field size” on page 68).
On the S3000 Expert and S3000 Remote the number of field sets that can be
configured is dependent on the configured angular resolution (see section 4.9 on
page 51).
4.3.4 Field mode
Dual
If you select the Dual option, you can configure field sets that comprise two fields, one
protective field and one warning field.
If you select Dual, simultaneous monitoring (see section 4.10.5 “Simultaneous
monitoring” on page 63) is available. In this way two protective fields and two warning
fields can be evaluated.
Dual protective fields
If you select the Dual protective fields option, you can configure field sets that comprise
two protective fields. Here both fields are evaluated as safe fields.
If you select Dual protective fields, simultaneous monitoring (see section 4.10.5
“Simultaneous monitoring” on page 63) is available. In this way four protective fields can
be evaluated.
This function can only be used in conjunction with a Flexi Soft safety controller that is
connected via EFI.
Triple
If you select the Triple option, you can configure field sets with three fields. These field
sets comprise one protective field and two warning fields.
On the S3000 Expert and S3000 Remote the number of field sets that can be configured
is dependent on the selected field mode (see section 4.9 on page 51).
