NOTE
If you operate the device in the compatibility mode, then the connections on the univer‐
sal I/O are used as an application diagnostic output, warning field output, and applica‐
tion diagnostic output for Reset required.
7.11.1
Application diagnostic output in the compatibility mode
The device has a configurable application diagnostic output in the compatibility mode.
You can configure the following for the application diagnostic output in the CDS:
•
Whether the application diagnostic output is deactivated.
•
Whether a signal is only output when the front screen is contaminated.
•
Whether a signal is only output on errors.
•
Whether a signal is output both for front screen contamination and on errors.

Field Sets
The number of field sets that can be configured depends on the safety laser scanner
variant. The following table shows the number of field sets per variant:

Configuring the protective field and warning field
The field set, which comprises a protective field
1
and two warning fields
2
is config‐
ured using the CDS. This involves configuring the shape and size of the protective field
and warning field. Any field shape can be created.
The area to be monitored is scanned radially by the device. The device cannot see
through objects, however. The surface behind objects which are located in the area to
be monitored (support columns, separator grids, etc.) can therefore not be monitored.
Figure 63: Creating a field set in the CDS
Protective fields and warning fields can cover an angle of up to 270° and have different
radial scanning ranges depending on the variant and the resolution configured.
