Figure 7: Collision protection field, shown in purple in this document, with reference target,
protective field and warning field
The warning field monitors larger areas than the protective field. Simple switching
functions can be triggered with the warning field, e.g. a warning light or an acoustic
signal can be triggered if a person approaches, even before the person enters the
protective field.
The warning field must not be used for safety applications.
