Figure 11: Field examples after teach-in
7.3.3
Field evaluation via input circuit
Configuration is performed by teach-in (EasyTeach) of the surrounding contour in order
to automatically generate a field with any shape, including more complex shapes.
In the as-delivered configuration, the teach-in phase is activated and deactivated using
the wiring for input IN5.
NOTE
Only one field may be taught-in at any one time. The default field is Field 1.
Preparing EasyTeach
•
Remove all objects that will not permanently be in the field of view.
•
Distance yourself sufficiently from the device during the teach-in phase and do not
enter the monitored area, so that you are not detected as part of the field contour.
Teaching in the field contour
•
The device forms the field from the surrounding contour with a negative offset of
250 mm.
•
The field shape to be formed can be defined by pacing out the limits during
the teach-in phase. It is important to make sure that the person can always be
unequivocally detected.
•
The device stores the shortest value measured during the teach-in phase as a field
limit for each angle.
NOTE
A parameter upload is required to display the newly taught-in field parameters in
SOPAS ET.
1.
Install the device.
2.
Carry out the EasyTeach wiring.
3.
Set the EasyTeach input signal to start the teach-in phase (active high).
4.
Define the field (e.g. using the existing surrounding contour or by pacing out the
field).
5.
Remove the EasyTeach input signal to end the teach-in phase (active high).
6.
Thoroughly check correct detection of the field borders by performing a functional
check in which field infringements are intentionally caused.
