5.7.5 Recommendations for Mounting to Prevent Unmonitored Zones
The creation of unmonitored zones is dependent upon the following factors:
• the vehicle width
• the design of the vehicle (e.g. attachments, shape)
• the position of the scanner
• the installation depth
• the selected angle range.
If the detection zone of a SIMATIC FS600 Laser Scanner mounted on an AGV does not
cover the entire front of the vehicle, you can prevent the creation of unmonitored zones
by changing the installation depth of the scanner or by adjusting the angle range (from
180° to 190°).
