Application name
T
he application name can be the same for a number of devices in the project.
User name
T
he optional user name helps later users to find a contact for the application.
Application image
An ima
ge helps to identify the application more quickly. The application image is saved
in the project file on the computer and transmitted to the device. The Safety Designer
supports the following file formats: BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG, TIF.
Description
A de
scription makes it easier to understand an application’s context more quickly.
7.9 Monitoring settings
Overview
T
he Monitoring settings page is used to configure general monitoring-related parameters.
The configured object resolution and multiple sampling initially apply to all fields. If
necessary, you can change these settings for each individual field.
Resulting values are displayed in the area on the right. A graphic shows how the
configuration affects the available scanning ranges.
Application type
T
he application type depends on the use of the safety camera sensor:
•
Stationary
The position of the safety camera sensor is fixed. The safety camera sensor is
used f
or hazardous area protection, hazardous point protection, or access protec‐
tion.
•
Mobile
In mobile applications, the safety camera sensor is mounted on the AGV (auto‐
ma
tic guided vehicle). The safety camera sensor is used for mobile hazardous
area protection, fall protection, or to protect against collisions.
Reference for increased scanning range
F
or stationary applications, you can activate an increased scanning range if the detec‐
tion zone is limited by a visible background object, e.g., a wall.
The increased scanning range in mobile applications can affect the availability of the
device.
If you activate the increased scanning range, then the Body object resolution is required.
Object resolution
T
he object resolution defines the size that an object must be to allow it to be reliably
detected.
