Term
Description
A
Auxiliary output
Function to give inverted signal of safety output information. This must not be
used for safety applications.
C
Configuration Tool
Setting tool that allows the user to read statuses of the F3SG-R with a PC.
E
Effective aperture angle (EAA)
Range of angles in which the F3SG-R can operate.
External device monitoring function (EDM)
Function to monitor the operation of an N.C. contacts of external relays (or
contactors) that control the hazardous zone of a machine, for any malfunctions
such as welding.
External test
Function that stops emission at a specified time to check that the Safety
outputs are being properly turned OFF.
I
Inverted signal output mode
In this mode, the logic of the Auxiliary output signal is reversed.
L
Light level monitoring
Function to read out the light level of incident light or ambient light on the
F3SG-R.
Load switching frequency
Function to display the number of operations of a load to be connected to the
F3SG-R.
Lockout
Function to keep the Safety outputs in the OFF state when an error is detected
by the F3SG-R.
Lockout reset
Function to release the Lockout state.
Lower beam(s)
Beams located toward the Power Cable of the F3SG-R.
O
Object resolution (Detection capability)
Minimum size of an object that can be detected in the protective height of the
F3SG-R.
Operating status monitoring
Function to read out the I/O data and status of functions of the F3SG-R.
Output operation mode
Information to be signaled to an output part (Safety output, Auxiliary output).
P
PELV
Protected Extra Low Voltage. A grounded circuit separated by double insulation
or equivalent from hazardous voltage. It does not generate voltage that
exceeds ELV under normal conditions and under single-fault conditions.
Normally, protection against direct contact is required.
Power-on time
Function to display the period of time when the F3SG-R is energized, starting
from when the power-on time was last reset until the present time.
Primary sensor
Name used for the F3SG-R to be connected nearest the power supply, when in
cascade connection.
R
Response time from ON to OFF
Period of time from when the F3SG-R is blocked until the Safety outputs are
turned from ON to OFF.
Restart interlock
Function to turn the Safety outputs to the OFF state when the F3SG-R is
blocked and keep this state until a reset signal is received.
S
Safety output (OSSD)
Output to be turned to the ON state when safety is ensured. This can be used
for safety applications.
SD Manager 2
Setting software that is used as the Configuration Tool for the F3SG-R. It allows
the user to monitor the operation of the F3SG-R when the F3SG-R is
connected to the PC via the Interface Unit or Bluetooth
®
Communication Unit.
Secondary sensor
Name used for other segments of F3SG-R's than the primary sensor, when in
cascade connection.
SELV
Safety Extra Low Voltage. An ungrounded circuit separated by double
insulation or equivalent from hazardous voltage. It does not generate voltage
that exceeds ELV under normal conditions and under single-fault conditions. If
the nominal voltage exceeds 25 VAC or 60 VDC, protection against direct
contact is required.
U
Upper beam(s)
Beams located toward the terminal of the F3SG-R.
V
Vs
Power supply voltage value in your usage environment.
