Commissioning
Commissioning requires a thorough check by qualified safety personnel!
Before you operate a system protected by the V200/V300 safety camera system for the
first time, make sure that the system is first checked and released by qualified safety
personnel. Please read the notes in chapter 2 “On safety” on page 8.
7.1
Test notes
Check the protective device as described below and in accordance with the applicable
standards and regulations.
These tests are also used to identify if the protection is affected by external light sources
or other unusual ambient effects.
These tests must therefore always be performed.
7.2
Tests before the initial commissioning
⋅
Check the effectiveness of the protective device mounted to the machine, using all
selectable operating modes as specified in the checklist in the annex (see 13.2
“Checklist for the manufacturer” on page 61).
⋅
Ensure that the operating personnel of the machine protected by the safety camera
system are correctly instructed by qualified safety personnel before being allowed to
operate the machine. Instructing the operating personnel is the responsibility of the
machine owner.
7.3
Regular inspection of the protective device by qualified
safety personnel
⋅
Check the system, following the inspection intervals specified in the national rules and
regulations. This procedure ensures that any changes on the machine or manipulations
of the protective device after the initial commissioning are detected.
⋅
If any modifications have been made to the machine or the protective device, or if the
safety camera system has been changed or repaired, the system must be checked
again as specified in the checklist in the annex.
