Reading and transmitting values
If the values in the project and the values in the device differ, you can read the values
out from the device and adopt them in the project. Alternatively, you can transmit val‐
ues from the project to the device.
Click on Read from the device.

✓
The values are read from the device and adopted in the project.
Click on Transmit to device.

✓
The values from the project are transmitted to the device.

If the device has already been configured, the entire configuration will be transmit‐
ted from the project to the device with the IP settings.
At the left, you see the values configured in the project for the device. If the device is
connected, you see the values saved in the device at the right.
If the values in the project and the values in the device differ, you can read the values
out from the device and adopt them in the project.
Click on Read from the device.

The values are read from the device and adopted in the project.
Configuration
•
Name
If a number of safety laser scanners are used in an application or in a project, a
unique device name helps to tell the individual devices apart.
• Checksums
A checksum is used as a unique identification for a configuration. Using the check‐
sum, it is possible to work out whether a setup was changed or whether two
devices have the same configuration.
The checksum of the configuration in the project may not match the checksum in
the device, for example if a field geometry has been modified, but not yet transmit‐
ted to the device.
