Response time
The response time depends on the following parameters:
number of beams
beam coding
configuration of floating blanking
number of cascaded systems
the output signal switching device used
How to determine the response time of the system:
Determine the response time of the individual components of the system.
–
The response time of a C4000 Select standalone or host system is described in sec-
tion 11.2.1 “Calculating the host/standalone response time” on page 58.
–
The response time for guest 1 using a C4000 Select system or S300/S3000 safety
laser scanner as guest 1 is described in section 11.2.2 “Calculating the guest 1
response time” on page 59.
–
The response time for guest 2 using a C4000 Select system as guest 2 is described
in section 11.2.3 “Calculating the guest 2 response time” on page 60.
You must also consider other components of the response time when performing mini-
mum safety distance calculations. Other components include, but are not limited to, safety
interfaces, safety communication networks, machine stopping time, etc. See section 5.1.1
“Minimum safety distance to the hazardous area” on page 29 for additional information.
11.2.1
Calculating the host/standalone response time
The following table provides details for C4000 Select response times based on configura-
tion with (beam code 1 or beam code 2) or without beam coding (uncoded operation). The
information presented in this table is then used to calculate the host/standalone C4000
Select response time.
