2 Safety
2.1
Correct use
The ISD400 Pro data transmission system consists of two optically aligned
devices, one of which functions as a sender and the other as a receiver.
The devices communicate over long distances and support wireless data
transmission.
Setting up a data transmission line requires a pair of devices, where
one device, F1 (ISD400-7xx1), has a red sender and another device, F2
(ISD400-7xx2), has an infrared sender.
SICK AG assumes no liability for losses or damage arising from the use of
the product, either directly or indirectly. This applies in particular to use of
the product that does not conform to its intended purpose and is neither
described nor mentioned in this documentation.
2.2
Incorrect use
The ISD400 Pro optical data transmission system does not constitute a
safety component according to the EC Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC).
The ISD400 Pro optical data transmission system must not be used in
explosion areas.
Any other use that is not described as correct use is prohibited.
Never install or connect accessories if their quantity and composition are
not clearly specified, or if they have not been approved by SICK AG.
