System configuration
4.7.1
System configuration
The control parameters have their own default values that can be modified via the
safeRS3 Designer application (see
).
When a new configuration is saved, the system generates the configuration report.
Note
: after a physical change of the system (e.g. new sensor installed), the system
configuration must be updated and a new configuration report must be generated, too.
4.7.2
Dynamic system configuration
safeRS3 allows a real-time adjustment of the most important system parameters,
providing the means to switch dynamically among different preset configurations. Via
the safeRS3 Designer application, once the first system configuration (default
configuration) has been set, it is possible to set alternative presets to allow a dynamic
real-time reconfiguration of the monitored area. The alternative presets are 3 through
digital input and 31 through Fieldbus (if available).
These are the programmable parameters for each sensor:
l
protective field (from 1 to 4)
These are the programmable parameters for each protective field:
l
angular coverage (from 10° to 100° on the horizontal plane)
l
detection distance
l
safety working mode (

) (see
Safety working modes and safety functions on page 40
)
l
status of the static object detection option (see
Restart prevention function: static
object detection option on page 43
)
l
restart timeout
All the remaining system parameters cannot be changed dynamically and are
considered static.
