1.1 Information on this manual 1.1.1 Objectives of this instruction manual This manual explains how to integrate LBK System for safeguarding machinery operators and how to install it, use it and maintain it safely. These instructions do not pertain to the functioning of the machinery where LBK System is installed.
2.1.3 INTENDED USE LBK System is certified as SIL 2 according to IEC/EN 62061 and PL d in accordance with EN ISO 13849-1. Performs the following safety functions: access detection function: prevents access to a dangerous area. Access to the area de-energizes the safety relays to stop the machinery's moving parts.

2.3 National restrictions 2.3.1 FRANCE AND THE UNITED KINGDOM LBK System is a short range device in class 2 in accordance with the directive 2014/53/EU (RED - Radio equipment) and is subject to the following restrictions: Restrictions in France and the United Kingdom. The national frequency allocation in France and the United Kingdom prohibits free use of the entire 24-24.25 GHz band.
Page 12
2.3.4 ARGENTINA Restrictions in Argentina. In Argentina, the national allocation of frequencies does not allow the free use of the whole band 24-24.25 GHz. Set the authorized band correctly in the Inxpect Safety application. es-AR Restricciones en Argentina. La atribución de las bandas de frecuencia en la República Argentina no permite el uso libre de toda la banda de 24-24,25 GHz.
In the absence of other control systems, LBK System can be connected to the devices that control the power supply or machinery start-up (e.g. external relays on the power supply line).

= restart enabled) The inputs are type1, type 2 and type 3 (see "Voltage and current limits for digital inputs" on page 62). The function of the inputs can be configured through the Inxpect Safety application. 3.2.10 SNS input The controller also has an SNS input (high logic level (1) = 24 V) to check the correct functioning of the chip that detects the status of the inputs.
("Restart prevention function" on the next page) when in alarm state for access detection (status Alarm) 4.2.2 Selectable safety functions In the manual system configuration via the Inxpect Safety application, you can select which safety functions each sensor performs: Both (default) Always access detection: even when the system is in Alarm status, the sensor has the field of vision and the sensitivity of the No alarm status.
If necessary, implement additional safety measures. Note: for linear barrier application, the stopping area is calculated automatically by the Inxpect Safety application based on the set dimensions of the dangerous area and the configuration of the sensors.

The system manages three types of restart prevention: Type Conditions for enabling machinery restart Automatic The time interval set through the Inxpect Safety application has passed since the last motion detection*. Manual The status of the restart enable button indicates that the restart is enabled (digital input status = 1).
1. Connect the machinery restart enable button conveniently, see "Electrical connections" on page 63. 2. In the Inxpect Safety application > Settings > Sensors, set Restart time out = 0. Safe manual 1. Connect the machinery restart enable button conveniently, see "Electrical connections"...
The muting function is enabled only if both logic signals of the dedicated input meet certain characteristics. Below is a graphic representation of the signal characteristics. In the Inxpect Safety > Settings > Digital Input-Output application it is necessary to set the parameters that define the characteristics of the signal.
See "Checks with anti-tampering function disabled" below. In the application Inxpect Safety in Settings click Sensors to disable the anti-tampering function. 4.6.3 Checks with anti-tampering function disabled When the anti-tampering function is disabled, perform the following checks.

See "Checks with anti-masking function disabled" below. To change the sensitivity level or disable the function, in the Inxpect Safety application, in Settings then click Sensors. 4.7.6 Checks with anti-masking function disabled When the masking function is disabled, perform the following checks.
5.3 Dangerous area calculation 5.3.1 Introduction The dangerous area of the machinery to which LBK System is applied must be calculated as indicated in standards ISO 13855:2010 and ISO 13857:2008. For LBK System the fundamental factors for calculation are height (h) and inclination (α) of the sensor, see "Sensor position" on page 25.
5. Sensor position 50° field of vision 5.4.7 Calculate the real alarm distance The actual alarm distance DalarmReal is the value to be entered in the application Inxpect Safety, in Manual configuration and in the Alarm distance parameter. DalarmReal indicates the maximum distance between the sensor and the object that is to be detected.

In the Inxpect Safety application, click APPLY CHANGES: the sensors will memorize the inclination set and the surrounding environment. The application will transfer the configuration to the controller, and once transfer is complete it will generate a configuration report.
3. If deactivated, see "Troubleshooting validation" on the next page. Specifications Stop for at least one time interval set as the restart delay (Inxpect Safety > Settings > Sensors). Stop in several different points, with special attention to the areas in close proximity to the sensor and any blind spots, see "Examples of stopping points"...
