SICK S200 (02) PDF MANUAL

In the device selection wizard, you can select the variants of the S3000 and S300 safety laser scanner.

S3000

Several sensor heads and I/O modules are available. The sensor heads differ in their maximum scanning range and the resulting possible size of the protective field. The I/O modules define the range of functions and have different inputs.

If you selected the device class S3000 in the previous dialog box, you must now choose the sensor head and the I/O module for the S3000 in the device selection wizard.

S300

Various S300 variants are available to cover different applications.

If you selected the device class S300 in the previous dialog box, you must now choose the S300 variant in the device selection wizard.

S200

There is only one device variant available.

If in the previous dialog box you selected the device class S200, in the device selection wizard click the Finish button.

Please read the basic description of the configuration using the CDS.

On a system that comprises two safety laser scanners, both scanners are configured in one configuration window. The configuration comprises:

• the configuration of the scanner system (e.g. the resolution, the restart behaviour and the monitoring cases)

• the configuration of the two safety laser scanners (e.g. the protective fields and warning fields)

WARNING: Check the configuration for each monitoring case and after every change! Once you have successfully transferred the configuration, a machine or plant protected by the safety laser scanner must be checked and released by specialist personnel. If you configure several monitoring cases, then you must test the protective device for effectiveness for each of these monitoring cases individually.

Application name:

Enter a name for your application with a maximum of 16 characters. The name is saved in the devices after the configuration has been transferred. The name chosen may be, for example, the identifier for the vehicle, system or the machine. Assigning unique application names helps “reserve” devices for certain duties.

Name of the scanner:

Enter a name for each of the scanners in the system with a maximum of 16 characters. It is recommended to use meaningful names, e.g. “front” and “rear” for vehicle monitoring. Unique device names make subsequent configuration steps easier. On a master/slave system with two scanners, the device names must always be different.

User data:

You can enter your name in the field “Name of the user”. This is then added to the configuration protocol and in the diagnostics report.

You can choose between stationary or mobile applications for a safety laser scanner.

• Select Stationary if the scanner is operated stationary on a machine or plant.

• Select Mobile if the scanner is operated mobile on a vehicle (e.g. AGV).

The configuration features subsequently available in the CDS depend on the selection made.

Select the necessary resolution in millimetres for your application. The maximum protective field range depends on the resolution selected; this range is indicated in “Maximum protective field range”. The protective field range must be adequate:

• in case of horizontal mounting, to ensure the necessary safety distance including the safety supplements is provided.

• to protect the entire access or hazardous area on vertical mounting.

The protective field range defines the maximum size of the protective field that you can edit in the field set editor. In certain circumstances you may need to adapt existing protective fields after changing the resolution.

WARNING: In horizontal applications in which you use 70 mm resolution, ensure that a human leg can be detected!

Mount the scan planes:

• for stationary applications with 70 mm resolution at least 300 mm above the floor! In case of scan planes higher than 300 mm, ensure that people cannot reach the hazardous area by crawling underneath the scan plane!

• for mobile applications at a maximum height of 200 mm!

The basic response time of the safety laser scanner is displayed in its field. For the S300 and S200, this is a fixed value. For the S3000, you can choose between two protective field ranges, and the basic response time is dependent on this selection.

WARNING: Use the total response time of the system to calculate the safety distance.

The total response time depends on:

• the basic response time.

• the multiple sampling set.

• the transmission speed of input signals via EFI.

• the transmission speed of the OSSD signals via EFI.

The Advanced and Professional variants have control inputs to switch between monitoring cases. Advanced variants have static inputs, while Professional variants have both static and dynamic inputs (for incremental encoders).

Control inputs for mobile applications:

If you activate the “Use dynamic control inputs” option with a Professional or Expert safety laser scanner, you can set parameters for incremental encoders. This option is only available if you selected the Mobile application type. This uses two existing inputs (A and B on the S300 or C and D on the S3000).

Control inputs used:

In “Control inputs used”, you must select the inputs for static switching between monitoring cases. The available inputs depend on the scanner variant and whether dynamic inputs are already in use.

Input C on the S300 Professional, Professional CMS or Expert:

You can select the “Use RESET and RES_REQ as Input C” check box. Control input C is then formed from the RESET and RES_REQ connections. If you configure this, the “With restart interlock” function is no longer available. This input uses complementary sampling and overwrites incremental encoder inputs.

Control inputs for master/slave operation:

WARNING: On the use of external control inputs, add 40 ms to the basic response time of the safety laser scanner! The total response time increases due to transmission via EFI.

In a master/slave system, control signals for monitoring case switching must be on the inputs on the master. In the “Use from” field, choose the device that is to act as the master. On a system with an S3000 and an S300, the S3000 always acts as the master.

Sampling for the static control inputs:

If you are using static sampling, choose between Complementary or 1-of-n-sampling depending on the control facilities available.

Input delay for static control inputs:

The control device you use to switch inputs must be able to switch to the defined input condition within a given time. If this is not the case (e.g., due to bounce times on switching contacts), you can increase the input delay in the “Input delay [ms]” field.

Advancement for the switch timing:

Under “Switching timing advance” you can see the time that results from the transfer time for control signals and OSSD signals over EFI and the input delay. You must advance the timing of the monitoring case switching for the related scanner by the corresponding time.

WARNING: Switch to another monitoring case in good time! The time the scanner needs to switch to a new monitoring case can be longer than its response time. If you use external control inputs and/or OSSDs, or if you need an input delay, you must advance the timing for the switching.

Note: On a master/slave system with two scanners, the times are different for scanner 1 and 2. The CDS displays the times in two fields with the related Scanner names.

Characteristic data for the incremental encoders:

To determine the velocity and direction of travel of the vehicle, the “Pulses per cm travel” as output by the incremental encoders are required. You can typically determine this from the documentation on the incremental encoder, from the diameter and transmission ratio of the drive gear, or by measurement. The minimum and maximum speed calculated from the entries is displayed. To safely detect the movement of the vehicle, two independent incremental encoders must always be connected.

Allowed difference between the incremental encoders:

For safety, the system compares the two pulse rates measured with each other. The values from the incremental encoders are only allowed to vary by the tolerance entered in the “Allowed difference between the encoders” field. The maximum setting is 25%. This difference is allowed to be exceeded for a maximum of 20 seconds (e.g., for driving around bends). In this case, the larger of the two velocity values is always used for the activation of the protective field.

The safety laser scanner has an application diagnostic output that can be configured. The following configuration possibilities are available:

• contamination

• error

• contamination or error

• inactive

On a master/slave system with two safety laser scanners, the outputs for both laser scanners can be configured independently.

OSSDs in master/slave operation:

In a master/slave system, you define which output signal switching device (OSSD) is switched to the OFF state when an object is in the protective field. Select the check box for the device on which the OSSDs are to be switched to the OFF state.

WARNING: For external OSSDs add 20 ms to the basic response time of the safety laser scanner! The total response time increases due to the transmission via EFI.

External device monitoring (EDM):

After every interruption to the protective field and prior to restarting the machine, the EDM monitors the switching devices operated by the OSSDs (e.g., contactors). The machine is only allowed to start if the contactors are in the OFF state.

• If you configure the “External device monitoring active” function, this device must also be connected to the EDM input on the safety laser scanner.

• If you do not configure the “External device monitoring active” function, the contactors must be monitored by the downstream machine controller and the EDM input must not be used.

• In master/slave operation, you can only activate the external device monitoring on the safety laser scanner if the internal OSSDs are used.

WARNING: It is imperative that you configure the safety laser scanner with restart interlock if the protective field can be left to approach the hazardous point or if a person cannot be detected at every point in the hazard area for the safety laser scanner!

You can restart the OSSDs of a safety laser scanner in three ways:

• without restart interlock: Only if an external restart interlock is realised on the machine controller, or if the protective field cannot be left in the direction of the hazardous point and if people can be detected by the safety laser scanner at every point in the hazardous area. The OSSDs are switched to the ON state if there is no object in the active protective field for the duration given.

• with restart interlock: The OSSDs are only switched to the ON state if the operator operates the control switch for restart or reset. Note: If you have configured the RESET and RES_REQ connections as control input C, the “With restart interlock” option can no longer be configured.

• time delayed: Only if the protective field cannot be left in the direction of the hazardous point and if people can be detected by the safety laser scanner at every point in the hazardous area. The OSSDs are switched to the ON state if there is no object in the active protective field for the duration given.

Creating field sets:

Add one or more field sets for the safety laser scanner. For these created field sets, you will later define the protective and warning fields in the field set editor. In the dialog box, you can add, edit, or delete field sets and change their names. Once you have created all available field sets, the Add button becomes inactive.

Field set names:

Enter a unique and meaningful name for each field set (e.g., “parking”, “2 m/s”). You can only use a field set name once.

Monitoring cases:

You can switch between monitoring cases via static or dynamic control inputs. The already defined monitoring cases are displayed in a table where you can add, edit, or delete them. It is defined for each monitoring case which field set is to be active. Using different input conditions (control signals), you can define when each monitoring case is to be active.

Notes:

• You can only add monitoring cases if you have first configured control inputs to be used.

• In a master/slave system, the master defines the number of possible monitoring cases.

• The CDS checks the plausibility of the monitoring cases. Cases where input values overlap or have the same input conditions are not allowed and are shown in yellow. You cannot leave the configuration step as long as any cases are implausible.

Monitoring case name:

Enter a unique and meaningful name for the monitoring case that describes its application (e.g., inching movement, parking, loading).

Using list boxes, you can define the states the static control inputs must take for a monitoring case to be activated. You are not allowed to configure input conditions that are already used for another monitoring case.

If you have selected complementary sampling:

In the list boxes, choose the logical state (1, 0, or X) for each control input to activate the monitoring case.

• 1 or 0: The selected value must be present at the control input.

• X: The control input is not taken into account for this monitoring case.

Example of complementary sampling logic:

In this example, if input A is 1, case 1 is activated regardless of input B. Therefore, a value of 1 for input A cannot be selected for any other monitoring case.

If you have selected 1-of-n sampling:

In the list boxes, select the connection for the control input (A1, A2, B1, B2, etc.) at which a high signal must be present to activate the monitoring case.

If you use dynamic incremental inputs for monitoring case switching, you must select the “Use velocity range” check box. In the “from” and “to” fields, enter the velocities at which the monitoring case is to be activated.

Note: The maximum measurable velocities are -2000 cm/s to 2000 cm/s. Values in the expanded standstill range between -9 cm/s and 9 cm/s cannot be entered. Ensure that velocity ranges do not overlap and that there are no undefined ranges between them.

For defining monitoring cases:

• For backward movement, enter values from -2000 cm/s to -11 cm/s.

• For forward movement, enter values from 11 cm/s to 2000 cm/s.

• For the standstill range, enter values from -10 cm/s to 10 cm/s.

In a mobile application where inputs A and B are connected to incremental encoders, control input C can be used as an additional input for monitoring case switching. This input uses complementary sampling and overwrites the incremental encoder inputs.

Action of the control input C:

To check whether the monitoring cases are switched in the correct order, you can configure a sequence for the monitoring cases. You can define either an arbitrary sequence, a unique sequence, or two alternative sequences.

• Arbitrary sequence: It is allowed to switch from one monitoring case to any other defined monitoring case.

• Unique sequence: It is only allowed to switch from a monitoring case to another specifically defined monitoring case.

• Alternative sequence: It is allowed to switch from a monitoring case to one of two specifically defined monitoring cases.

It is recommended to use the monitoring of the monitoring case switching as an additional check on your control to detect deviations from a sequence.

Allocating the field sets:

You allocate a field set to each monitoring case. In the “Field set” list box, you can select the field sets you have already created. When the monitoring case is switched on, the configured protective field and warning field for the related field set will be activated. Next to the list box, you can see the OSSDs on which the selected field set acts.

Simultaneous field set of the S3000:

On the S3000 safety laser scanner, you can allocate a simultaneous field set. If configured, the system monitors two field sets simultaneously.

Effect of the field sets:

The OSSDs on which the field set(s) act are displayed next to the list box.

• If the interruption of the protective field only switches the internal OSSDs, both field sets act on these OSSDs (e.g., on the front scanner).

• If the interruption of the protective field only switches the external OSSDs on another device, both field sets act on the external OSSDs (e.g., on the rear scanner).

• If the interruption switches both internal and external OSSDs, the allocated field set acts on the internal OSSDs (e.g., front scanner), and the simultaneous field set acts on the external OSSDs (e.g., rear scanner).

If, in mobile applications, vehicles are not moved for a time, the OSSDs and the laser on the safety laser scanner can be switched off by the park mode to reduce power consumption.

To switch to the park mode, configure a monitoring case and activate the mode using the “Park mode” check box.

Note: It is not possible to allocate a field set to this monitoring case. As an alternative to the park mode, you can also use the stand-by mode.

With multiple sampling selected, an object must be detected several times in the same beam before the safety laser scanner switches its OSSDs to the OFF state. This can reduce the probability of shutdowns caused by insects or particles.

You can configure a specific multiple sampling for each monitoring case. A multiple sampling of 2 is the minimum setting, and you can set it up to 16.

WARNING: For multiple sampling greater than 2, add the supplement to the basic response time! Multiple sampling increases the response time. Under “Resulting response time supplement” you can see the supplement that you must add.

Recommended multiple sampling for different applications:

You can edit the field set(s) for a safety laser scanner in a “Field set editor”. Depending on the scanner used, the display angle is 190° (S3000) or 270° (S300 and S200).

In the editor window, you can edit the protective field and warning field using various tools. The most important menu commands are also available as buttons on the toolbars. You can customize the view, use the protective field contour as a reference, and display the surrounding contour as scanned by the device.

You can open the Field set editor window using the “Edit field sets…” command on the context menu for the related device symbol.

The maximum protective field range, which depends on the configured resolution, is displayed as a violet line. If you change the resolution later, it may not be possible to transfer protective fields already drawn to the devices.

To work optimally, you can change the screen layout and what is displayed.

The CDS can suggest a protective or warning field by scanning the visible room contour. Note that measurement tolerances are automatically subtracted, so the suggested field is slightly smaller than the covered surface.

WARNING: Check the protective field suggested! The suggested field is not a replacement for calculating the safety distance. Always calculate the safety distance and check the protective fields before commissioning.

How to have a protective field suggested:

1. Switch to the protective field level in the field set editor using the toolbar.

2. On the toolbar, click the “Protective field suggestion” button.

3. A warning will be displayed that the actual protective field will be overwritten. Click the Yes button.

4. The room contour is scanned and displayed. If necessary, you can then edit the suggested field.

How to have a warning field suggested:

1. Switch to the warning field level in the field set editor using the toolbar.

2. On the toolbar, click the “Warning field suggestion” button.

3. A warning will be displayed that the actual warning field will be overwritten. Click the Yes button.

4. The room contour is scanned and displayed. If necessary, you can then edit the suggested field.

You can display the contour of the surroundings to help change the protective and warning fields, and to detect obstacles.

How to display the surrounding contour:

• On the toolbar in the field set editor, click the “Viewing the surrounding contour” button. The surrounding contour is scanned and displayed as a blue line.

• Or, keep the Ctrl key pressed and click the same button. The surrounding contour is scanned, displayed as a blue line, and continually updated.

Note: Depending on the power of your PC, some CDS functions may become slower during continual updating.

With the function “Contour as reference,” a contour segment is applied to the monitored area. Within this segment’s tolerance band, the contour of an object (e.g., the floor) must always be present. The OSSDs of the scanner change to the OFF state if there is an object in the protective field or if the room contour is no longer fully within the tolerance band (protection against tampering).

How to create a contour segment:

1. You must first create a protective field for your application.

2. From the Tools menu, select the “Create contour” command. An angle symbol appears next to the mouse pointer.

3. Click the outermost point on the right of the intended contour segment.

4. Drag the mouse pointer to the outermost point on the left of the segment.

5. Release the mouse button. The contour segment is created with a positive and negative tolerance band.

How to reduce a contour segment:

1. From the Tools menu, select the “Reduce contour” command.

2. Click the point from which you want to reduce the segment.

3. Drag the mouse pointer to the point to which you want to reduce the segment.

4. Release the mouse button. The segment is reduced, and a warning field is now in the place where the segment was.

How to edit a contour segment:

• Negative tolerance band: Switch to the protective field level. Use an editing tool to change the protective field within the area of the contour segment. You cannot increase its size beyond the original segment.

• Positive tolerance band: Switch to the warning field level. Use an editing tool to change the positive tolerance band. You can only reduce the contour field to the original protective field boundary.

Pre-setting of the view:

Set the direction in which the laser scanner’s scanning range is to be aligned in the Field set editor window: Up (standard), Down, Left or Right.

Representation of the monitoring areas:

Choose whether all created field sets are to be shown (the current one solid, others dotted) or only the currently selected field set.

Pre-setting of the grid:

Enter the basic setting for the grid lines. Choose between a cartesian grid (for rectangular/polygon fields) and a polar grid (for circular fields).

Colour settings:

You can enter the Colour of the grid. The colours for the laser scanner, protective field, warning field and background are fixed.

Pre-setting for the protective/warning field:

Choose whether the default for a new field set is No field, a Rectangle, or a Sector of a circle. If you choose Rectangle or Sector, you can define default dimensions (Height, Width, Distance, Radius).

Pre-setting for the contour segments:

Define a positive and a negative tolerance band for contour segments. The values relate to the boundary of the protective field (e.g., +15 cm/-15 cm). The tolerance bands must not be set to less than +10 cm/-0 cm.

The level of contamination is measured continuously. For this, the optics cover/front screen calibration must first be performed to serve as a reference (status = not contaminated). The calibration is only allowed to be performed with a new optics cover or front screen at room temperature (10-30 °C).

WARNING: Only calibrate immediately after replacement with a brand-new, clean optics cover or front screen! If you perform the calibration with a used or contaminated optics cover/front screen, the laser scanner detection features will be degraded.

How to perform a front screen calibration:

1. On the context menu for the S3000/S300/S200 device symbol choose the command “Service, Optics cover calibration” or “Front screen calibration”.

2. A warning is displayed, informing you that you are only allowed to calibrate immediately after replacement with a brand-new, clean component.

3. Only click the OK button if you have replaced the optics cover or front screen with a brand-new, clean one. The message “Calibration has been performed” appears.

Via the CDS you can restart the scanner to simulate the power-up process, for example, to re-start the scanner if it is in the lockout operational status. During the restart, the OSSDs will be switched to the OFF state.

How to restart the safety laser scanner:

From the context menu for the device symbol select the command “Service, Restart scanner”. The safety laser scanner performs the power up sequence.

The data recorder enables you to display and record various operating data for the safety laser scanner while online. You can display the scanner’s measured scan line, infringements of the protective or warning field, and observe the states of the control inputs. The data can be recorded and saved, which helps to localize and identify errors during operation. You can also use trigger conditions to start or stop recording automatically.

The user interface for the data recorder comprises the following elements:

• Display of the LEDs and the 7-segment display.

• Activated monitoring case and its assigned field set.

• Velocity that is present at the dynamic control inputs.

• Status of the control inputs.

• Date and time of a recording.

• Number for the current data record and total number of data records.

• Slider for replay speed.

• Monitored area with: protective field = red, warning field = yellow, retrieved room contour = blue.

• I/O traces with velocities or levels present at the inputs.

The data recorder is operated using a toolbar with symbols similar to a video recorder, which have tooltips for identification. You can also run all functions using the Recorder menu.

Display and record data:

1. In the toolbar of the data recorder, click the Connect button. The actual operating mode is indicated on the safety laser scanner.

2. To record, click the Start recording button. A dialog box will open to enter a name and folder for the file.

Playing back saved files:

1. Open a recorded file (file extension .REC). The project opened in the CDS must match the project used during recording.

2. Use the buttons on the toolbar to start, stop, or end replay. You can also move forward or back in steps or navigate directly in the recording by clicking the I/O traces displayed.

Changing replay speed:

Use the “Rel. replay speed” slider to regulate the replay speed. Move the slider to the left to slow down and to the right to increase the speed.

With the aid of trigger conditions (Options menu, Settings), you can define when the data recorder is to record application data.

Setting trigger conditions (simple mode):

In “simple mode,” you activate one or more conditions (e.g., OSSD has switched, Warning field has been infringed, Switching to monitoring case no. X) and select AND or OR as the operator between them.

• Example with AND: If you link “OSSD has switched” AND “Switching to monitoring case no. 2”, the recorder records data only when both conditions are met.

• Example with OR: If you link “Warning field has been infringed” OR “Switching to monitored area no. 3”, the recorder records as soon as at least one condition is met.

Setting trigger conditions (expert mode):

In the “Trigger conditions” area, click the Expert mode button. In the “Boolean expression” field, you can enter conditions directly or assemble them using the “Insert trigger condition” and “Paste operator” list boxes.

• Example: A condition “PROT AND NOT MONCASE = 2” means the data recorder records data as soon as there is an object in the protective field, but the scanner is not in monitoring case 2.

How to define a Boolean expression in expert mode:

1. If you want to invert a condition, choose “NOT” in the “Paste operator” list box.

2. In the “Insert trigger condition” list box, choose the required trigger condition. It is entered at the cursor position.

3. If you want to add further conditions, choose an operator like “AND” or “OR” from the “Paste operator” list box.

4. Repeat until the expression is complete. You can also enter the expression manually (not case sensitive).

5. Use the “Check expression” button to check for plausibility. You can use round brackets to group conditions and change evaluation priority.
