MicroScan3 configuration of the data output
6.1
Important notes
Using the safe 2D LiDAR sensor does require the safety-related functions of the sensor
to be fully configured. The configuration needs to be valid and verified and the sensor
must not be in error mode.
When using PROFINET scanners, the inputs have to be configured in the same way as
the scanner is integrated. E.g. if there is an input signal configured, the input source
has to be electrically applied.

Overview
For more information on the microScan3’s data output via UDP and TCP/IP, refer to the
document with the following SICK part numbers:

DANGER
Danger of using data output for safety function
Data output may only be used for general monitoring and control tasks.
b
Do not use data output for safety-related applications.
Data output allows for the output of measurement data and other data via the Ethernet
interface. Other network participants, the receivers, can call up and use the data.
The data output works in different send modes:
•
On request
: Data is output when there is an explicit request from a host computer
via TCP/IP using CoLa2
•
Continuous and on request
: Data is output continuously via UDP to a defined target
address and also when there is an explicit request from a host computer via
TCP/IP using CoLa2
6.3
Activating and configuring data output
You can activate and configure the data output in two ways:
•
With the Safety Designer
•
Via the CoLa2 protocol
