Testing the effective ranges in the plant
After successful verification of the transponders and effective ranges you must test in the
plant whether the expansion of the configured effective ranges corresponds to the planning.
In particular, check the following cases:
● Do the limits of the effective range run as planned?
Pay special attention that no machine operations are permitted from excessive distances
or areas that cannot be seen.
● Does the indicator that belongs to the effective range show whether an HMI device is
logged on at the effective range?
● Are moving machine parts influencing the reception of the transponders? Check also the
extreme positions of moving machine parts.
● Is WLAN coverage ensured everywhere in the effective range?
