NOTE
A warning field must not be used for tasks relating to the protection of people.
Field set comprising a protective field and warning field(s)
Protective fields and warning fields form the so-called field set. These field sets are con‐
figured using the CDS. You can configure the fields to be radial, rectangular or free
form. When the area to be monitored changes, you can reconfigure the safety laser
scanner via the software without additional mounting work.
Depending on the I/O module used, you can define up to 8 field sets and save them in
the safety laser scanner. This allows you to switch to another field set if the monitoring
situation changes.
You can configure different field sets:
•
Field sets that comprise one protective field and one warning field
•
Field sets that comprise two protective fields
•
Field sets that comprise one protective field and two warning fields

Monitoring cases
Up to 16 monitoring cases can be defined and selected during operation. This makes it
possible, for example, to perform process-dependent hazardous area protection or
speed-dependent vehicle monitoring.
