Mounting
During mounting, please observe the maximum protective field width!
If, during mounting, the maximum protective field width for one or two camera systems is
exceeded, the camera will not see the reflective tape opposite. As a result an unmonitored
area will be produced. The operator is at risk!
Prevent the mutual interference of systems mounted in close proximity!
If two V200/V300 are so arranged that they entirely or partially look at the same reflective
tape, the two cameras may interfere with each other. This can disrupt the protective
function of the system. This would mean that the operator is at risk.
⋅
Take suitable measures to prevent mutual interference:
•
If the two cameras are used in different applications:
– reverse the direction in which one of the systems looks.
– choose a different mounting method (see section 4.4 “Steps for mounting the safety
camera system” on page 26).
– mount non-reflective field of view guards.
•
If the two cameras are used in the same application, then synchronise the two systems
(see section 5.4 “Two V200/V300 with synchronisation” on page 35).
