Distance covered during the response time of the safety laser scanner
The distance covered during the response time of the safety laser scanner depends on …
the response time of the safety laser scanner,
the maximum velocity of the vehicle in your mobile application.
The response time T
S
of the S3000 depends on …
the multiple sampling set,
the transmission speed to external OSSDs over EFI.
See section 12.2 “OSSD response times” on page 144.
How to calculate the distance covered during the response time of the safety laser

R
for measurement errors caused by reflection
With retroreflectors in the background at a distance of less than 1 m from the boundary of
the protective field, the supplement Z
R
is 200 mm.
