12 Checkout Procedure
Once the Focus II system has been configured, mounted, aligned and properly connected to the machine
control system, the initial Checkout Procedure (see 25) must be performed by qualified personnel. A copy of
the checkout results should be kept with the machine records.
The tests outlined in the Test Procedure (see 26) must be performed at installation, according to the
employer's regular inspection program and after any maintenance, tooling change set up, adjustment or
modification to the Focus II system or the guarded machine. Where a guarded machine is used by multiple
operators or shifts, it is suggested that the test procedure is performed at each shift or operator change.
Testing ensures that the light curtain and the machine control system work properly to stop the machine.
Failure to test properly could result in serious injury to personnel. The test procedure must be performed by
qualified personnel. To test the Focus II system with floating blanking disabled, use the supplied test object.
For applications where blanking is enabled, see the table in the chapter "Blanking" to determine the proper
size of the test object.
