2.3.1 Setting the zones :

The FF-SE monitors pre-defined areas, called protection zones.
•
• A protection zone of the FF-SE is made up of 600 beams. Each beam sends infrared light and receives a
signal back that corresponds to a distance from the closest object detected in this direction. If this equivalent
value falls below a certain distance during the monitoring, it means that an object is present in this protection
area. The corresponding relay is then opened.
The protection zone limit is customer selected and corresponds to the switching point of the relays for all 600
beams.

•
The dangerous zone is the zone where dangerous motion occurs. This is the zone to be protected with the
laser scanner.
