5 Application examples
5.1 Area monitoring
5.1.1 Introduction
With static attachment and with attachment on a vehicle, the
Object Detection
function enables area
monitoring of several user-defined areas simultaneously�
Functions:
●
Monitoring of an area in front of a door or access point
●
Control and/or signalling of opening via the controller based on the CAN sensor signals�
●
Attachment to a vehicle and monitoring of areas in the driving path
●
Selective distinction between normal and reflective objects
●
Evaluation of the presence of the object in the sensor's field of vision
●
Filtering of the objects by size and speed
●
Monitoring of access to tunnel boring machines or to other accessible machines
When using an ifm controller or display, the included CODESYS module can be used to receive and inter-
pret the CAN signals� CODESYS program examples of various applications are available in the Download
area (

5.1.2 Attachment options
Static attachment
The Smart Sensor can be attached opposite or above the area to be monitored�
