3. Product overview SE2L emits pulsed laser beam which is reflected on a rotating mirror within the configured protection zone. When the emitted laser beams are reflected back from an object its distance is measured. This chapter describes the features and properties of SE2L. 3.1 Features of SE2L-H05LP Protection range: Maximum 5m ( ...
3.3 Operation principle Warning zone 2 Warning zone 1 Protection zone Figure 3-4 Scanning range Figure 3-4 shows the scanning range of SE2L. Protection zone and warning zones are configured using the SLS Project Designer application software. Any object or human beings entering the protection zone will lead the OSSD signal to change from ON-state to OFF-state.
The operating principle of TOF is schematically shown in Figure 3-5. The angular resolution of SE2L is 0.125°. Figure 3-5 TOF operation principle 3.4 Scanning area Scanning area of SE2L consists of protection zone and warning zones. Maximum 32 sets of area can be configured.

In dual protection mode, two protection zones can be configured independently. SE2L will monitor these zones simultaneously. OSSD1 and OSSD2 are dedicated to protection zone1 and OSSD3 and OSSD4 are dedicated to protection zone2. Figure 3-8 shows an example of the dual protection zone configuration. Warning zones cannot be configured in dual protection mode.
3.4.2 Warning zone Warning zones are non-safety zones and are connected to Warning1 and Warning2 outputs. When the obstacle is detected in the warning zones, SE2L will switch the respective warning signal from ON-state to OFF-state. Warning signals can be used as an alert signal to avoid human beings or objects from approaching near the protection zone.
3.5 Area switching A maximum of 32 sets of area can be configured in SE2L. However the maximum configurable area number differs depending on the selected function such as, muting and dual protection. Table 3-1 shows the maximum configurable area number according to the used mode. External input signals are provided in SE2L for switching the area.

3.6 Incremental encoder In SE2L there are 2 pairs of encoder input terminals for connecting 2 units of dual channel incremental encoder signals. Area will be switched depending on the encoder speed. Direction of travel is detected by encoder's phase A and phase B signals having the phase difference of 90°. Speed and rotating direction of both encoders are constantly monitored to detect abnormal travel and stop the AGV.
3.6.1 Pulse per cm travel generated by incremental encoders When AGV travels, increment encoder generates pulses due to the transmission ratio between AVG tires and increment encoder frictional wheel. Pulse count per cm depends on AGV's speed. Figure 3-11 Calculation of pulse count for per centimeter travel AGV tire diameter : 40 cm ...
User should verify the proper area switching through encoder inputs. Always use 2 units of increment encoder. It is not possible to detect the failure of increment encoder or abnormal travel of the vehicle with single unit. Use separate sets of cable to connect outputs from incremental encoder 1 and 2 to the respective encoder input terminals of SE2L.
3.6.4 Area switching by encoder input When encoder setting is enabled, four patterns can be selected from two available external inputs. For each pattern, select either to use as static input or the encoder input or not in use. It is necessary to select at least one pattern for encoder input.
When the pattern is set for static input, area number and encoder speed monitoring are configured. Speed monitoring monitors the speed of the encoder and if it exceeds the limit OSSD will be switched to OFF state. Figure 3-13(b) shows the example of static input setting. In this example, Area1 is assigned to the input pattern and speed monitoring is enabled with the monitoring speed range -20 to 500cm/sec.
3.7.1 Self-diagnostic function of OSSD Self-diagnostic is a function to detect the malfunction in the output circuit by switching OFF the OSSD 1 to OSSD 4 for an interval of 300μs. Therefore, safety-relay or power converter used must not response to this diagnostic function.
Page 31
3.7.3.1 Automatic restart SE2L will restart automatically when interlock function is disabled or only the start interlock function is enabled. When obstacle from the protection zone is removed, OSSD signals switch from OFF-state to ON-state automatically. OSSD response times for ON and OFF states are configurable (See section 3.12). However, if SE2L is in the lockout state due to error, OSSDs will remain in OFF-state even if the interlock function is disabled.
Page 32
3.7.3.2 Manual restart (Interlock enabled) SE2L operates in manual restart mode when interlock function is set to manual mode. The OSSD signal switches from ON-state to OFF-state, if SE2L detects any obstacle within the protection zone or detects any system error. In this mode, even if the detected obstacles or system error is removed, OSSD signals will remain in OFF-state.
3.7.3.3 Manual start (Interlock enabled) Start interlock is a function which keeps the OSSD in OFF-state during the start-up until an external reset input is applied. Start interlock setting has only manual mode. The RES_REQ signal switches to ON-state after the SE2L completes initial routines and ready to accept the RESET input. When RESET input is applied, OSSD will switch to ON state if no object is detected in the protection zone.
Figure 3-19 EDM timing chart In dual protection mode, EDM2 circuit and timing chart for OSSD3 and OSSD4 are same as above. 3.9 Muting function Muting function temporarily suspends the safety function in the configured zone of SE2L when the specified conditions are fulfilled.
3.9.2 Muting stop condition Muting function will stop when any one of the condition below is fulfilled: a) One of the muting inputs switches to OFF-state. b) When the predefined (preset) maximum muting time T2 exceeds (1 minute and above) (Figure 3-20). c) Objects are detected in the protection zone which is not covered by the muting zone.
3.9.3 Muting override function Muting override is a function to recover SE2L when the OSSD is switched to OFF state due to muting related errors by temporarily suspending the safety function. Override function is active when the override input (OVERRIDE 1/2) and the reset input (RESET 1/2) are switched in a sequence. Figure 3-21 shows the override sequence.
When using muting override in dual protection mode, Muting 3, Muting 4, Override input 2 and Reset input 2 are configured in the similar way. When muting function is enabled, user must ensure the safety of the protection zone. ...
3.10.2 Access protection An example of reference monitor function used for access protection is shown in figure 3-23(a), (b). Reference segments should be configured on each surface for displacement detection. Reference segments should be configured such that displacement can be easily detected. The OSSD will switch to OFF-state when access penetration is detected, and also if the distance between SE2L and the reference structure changes.

3.11 Area sequence function Area sequence is a function to monitor sequences of area switching. When this function is activated, OSSD signal will switch to OFF-state if the switching pattern is other than the configured sequence. This function prevents the machine to operate with random protection zone. From each area, switching selection to maximum 31 other areas is possible when configuring the area sequence.
Table 3-4 Response time of SE2L Response time (ms) (ON -> OFF) Response time (ms) (OFF -> ON) Default value * Minimum configurable response time in Master/Slave mode is 120ms for OFF and 300ms for ON. 3.13 Other outputs SE2L consist of 6 non-safety outputs, WARNING1, WARNING2, MUT_OUT1, MUT_OUT2 and RES_REQ1 and RES_REQ2.
3.13.5 Reset Request 1 (RES _ REQ1) This signal will switch to ON-state when the protection zone 1 of the SE2L is ready to receive reset signal. 3.13.6 Reset Request 2 (RES _ REQ2) This signal will switch to ON-state when the protection zone 2 of the SE2L is ready to receive reset signal. 3.14 Information indicator LEDs and 7-segment display indicate the SE2L status.

When using the SE2L on an AGV, user should confirm the time and distance required for the AGV to stop completely as it will move forward during the response time of SE2L. It is important to note that distance required to stop is not proportional to the speed, but proportional to the square of the speed. Further, sufficient ground clearance should be provided to prevent injuries, such as, hitting the toes.

4.10 Area protection (Mobile, Horizontal, Autonomous Navigation) SE2L monitors both protection and warning zones and simultaneously transfers the measured data of the surrounding through the Ethernet to the main control unit of AGV. Supplied data can be used for autonomous route selection.
5. Installation Cautions during the installation of SE2L are explained in this chapter. 5.1 Light interference SE2L uses pulsed laser for object detection. Light sources in the surrounding could interfere with its operation leading to false detection. User should examine the surroundings environments before installing the SE2L.
5.2 Mutual interference Cautions are required while using two or more units of SE2L or identical products as pulsed laser signal from one another could lead to false detection. Figures below show the installation method for avoiding the mutual interference. a) Changing the height of installation Install at different heights to separate the mutual detection plane by 5 degrees or more.
Page 63
b) Changing the angle of installation Change the installation angle of SE2L by 5 degrees or more from the mutual detection plane. Figure 5-4 Opposite facing installation Figure 5-5 Parallel installation C) Adding a shield between SE2Ls Add a shield between SE2Ls such that laser beam of one unit cannot reach the other to avoid the possible mutual interference.
Figure 5-7 Parallel installation Shielding material should be opaque. 5.3 High reflective background Measured value will be longer than the actual distance of the object due to high reflective background leading to wrong OSSD output. When high reflective background cannot be avoided in the working environment, additional distance of 200mm is necessary while configuring the protection and warning zones (Figure 5-8).
Measured value will be longer than actual distance of the object if the background is highly reflective. Additional distance should be included when configuring the protection zone. High reflective background (Ex.: Mirror, corner cube reflector, reflective safety jacket, road reflector) should be avoided. Reflectance caused by these materials could lead to false detection in the protection zone.
6. Wiring This chapter describes safety precaution when wiring the SE2L. 6.1 Precautions During electric wiring make sure that all devices are disconnected from power supply. Switch off all the power supply during wiring. Confirm that power supply is OFF. 6.2 Power supply Make sure that power supply is within the range of 24V DC ±10%.
