EFI gateway with two S300 safety laser scanners
The protective field switching is performed via the (F)PLC. The control input signals used
for this purpose are routed to the two S300 over two separate EFI strings via the EFI
gateway (each address 14). The status information from the S300 is received by the EFI
gateway (each address 7) and routed to the (F)PLC.
