Caution on Safety Zone Configuration
Due to the scanner’s minimum object resolution criteria, it is possible to configure zones that are not
considered valid. These zone configurations may contain a protrusion or intrusion that is narrower than 70mm
in width within the field of view. This type of invalid zone configuration can only occur within a distance of 4
meters from the scanner.
Narrow protruding areas less than 70mm wide are NOT valid zone perimeters. A scanner configured with
such a safety zone would see a presence within this area (if in monitor mode), but would not initiate a machine
stop. The following pictures shows a possible zone configuration that contains a protrusion that is narrower
then 70mm in width, since this protrusion is less than 70mm in width it will not detect a 70mm object. Refer to
Fig. 3-83
Fig. 3-83 Detection Zone in Protruding Part
Narrow intruding areas less than 70mm wide are NOT valid zone perimeters. A scanner configured with such
a safety zone would see a presence within this area (if in monitor mode), but would not initiate a machine
stop. The following pictures shows a possible zone configuration that contains an intrusion that is narrower
than 70mm in width, In this case the scanner has two fields of view and the object must be entirely in the left
or right field of view to be detected, therefore this narrow intrusion of less than 70mm in width is not a valid
zone. Refer to Fig. 3-84
