Figure 25: Mounting example for all round protection in any direction of travel
Using two safety laser scanners mounted diagonally opposite one another, it is possible
to implement protective fields on the vehicle that provide all round protection in any
direction of travel.

Near range
The near range is a 5 cm wide area in front of the optics cover. Use a bracket or under‐
cut to prevent persons from entering the near range or provide additional protection
using a close-range scanner with a detection range of 5 cm. The vehicle can then be
accelerated at any rate.
4.3.3
Timing for monitoring case switching
Overview
When switching between monitoring cases, it is possible that a person may already be
in the newly activated protective field when switching takes place. Only by switching in
the correct time frame (i.e., before the hazard occurs at this point for the person) is pro‐
tection provided.
You must advance the switching time in the following situations:
•
You have entered an input delay for the switching method.
•
You are using external inputs (e.g., the inputs of another S300).
•
You are controlling external OSSDs via EFI (e.g., the OSSDs on another S300)
instead of the internal OSSDs.
The following diagram illustrates the relationships:
