OPERATING MANUAL
light curtain configuration error, which prevents non-authorised changes to the advanced
configuration.
Advanced configuration mode
With the PSENopt Configurator (graphical user interface for PC), the user has the option to
configure advanced light curtain parameters. A variety of parameters can be used to adapt
the light curtain operation to your applications.
As the configuration of the light curtain is a safety-related component, the software must only
be handled by qualified personnel.
Such qualified personnel must ensure that nobody has access to the hazardous parts of the
machinery during the configuration procedure.
PSENopt Configurator has three different user levels with different authorizations.
System integrator: Has all possible access rights and can modify any setting in the
PSENopt Configurator.
Maintenance engineer: Can upload a configuration stored in the PSENopt Configurator to
the light curtain and use the PSENopt Configurator to monitor the system. He cannot create
any new configurations.
Machine operator: Uses the PSENopt Configurator exclusively to monitor the system.
Each user category is assigned different passwords to protect some functions.

1) Selecting the light curtain: User selects the light curtain to be configured from
among the light curtains that are identified within the network.
2) Configuring the parameters: User sets the configuration for the selected light
curtain.
Once completed, the user saves the configuration; the light curtain switches to a
SAFE state; the "Configuration in progress" message is displayed on the light
curtain's LED interface and the previous light curtain configuration is deleted.
3) Checking the report: The light curtain sends the received configuration back to the
PSENopt Configurator and PSENopt Configurator generates a printable SAFETY
REPORT, which contains all the safety-related information about the present
configuration (Fig. 30). Once all the content of the report has been checked, the user
can accept the configuration: the light curtain restarts normal operation with the new
configuration.
4) Checking the light curtain: User checks that the light curtain is operating in
accordance with the specifications in the SAFETY REPORT (checks the resolution
using the appropriate test object, parameter check, ...).
