The 24-V DC power supply must be fed to the scanner through a separate branch
with a 1.25 Amp delayed action fuse in the control cabinet.
Guard operation is only permitted with the control cable (X1) of the dummy
connector . This also applies for transport and storage.
The safety output has a double design. The two OSSDs must always be included
in the shut-off circuit of the machine in such a manner that either of the two is
completely sufficient by itself to turn off the motion that presents a danger.
The alarm output 1 (Pin 5 on X1) must not be used to switch safety-related signals.
System tests (of the scanner, machine, control components and switch
components) may only be performed when they do not result in potential hazards
for people.
Tampering with or making changes to the SIMATIC FS600 Laser Scanner can
result in the loss of the safety function.
Only expert trained personnel is allowed to perform startup, maintenance,
parameter settings or detection zone configurations. Familiarity with the safety
notes in this Connecting and Operating Instruction and in the operating instructions
for the "SIMATIC FS600 Parameterization Software LS4soft" program constitutes
part of this expert knowledge.
The password required for configuring safety-relevant parameters must be kept in
a secure location by the safety official. Information about password levels can be
found in the "SIMATIC FS600 Parameterization Software LS4soft" user's manual.
If the machine is designed for start interlock /manual restart, all detection zones
must be checked before enable - no one is permitted in the danger area.

Restrictions for Use

Glass, highly reflective materials such as mirrors (reflectance > 10,000 %), or
objects that do not reflect any light back to the sensor can falsify the measurement
result. More information is available in Chapter 5.3.5.
Do not expose the SIMATIC FS600 Laser Scanner to flying sparks (for example a
welding flash). Doing so may cause damage to the optical window.
Vapor, smoke, dust and all particles visible in the air have a significant negative
effect on measurement values and will result in the semiconductor outputs being
turned off.
Avoid extreme variations in temperature.
