5.4.2.2. Service information
For diagnosis of a MSR42 control unit, a short description of the error type may be found in the “Service Information” window ( Figure 29). External
and internal errors, as well as necessary corrective actions, will be displayed here.

5.4.3. Tab “Application info”
This window calculates the minimum safety distances for applications with vertically mounted GuardShield Micro 400 light curtains. The
corresponding calculations are carried out according to EN ISO 13855-2010 and EN 61496-1, -2. These results can be printed and included as part of
the complete risk analysis documentation.
Figure 30: Application information
To calculate the minimal safety distance first answer the following applications question:
“Industrial Application; Yes or No”
Choose “Yes” if the application is industrial. Select “No” if the application is not industrial (this means that children also have access to the application).
Next, the following information must be entered in order to start the calculations of the minimum safety distances ( Figure 31). These values will be
shown on the corresponding configuration control document ( Figure 51).
• The response time of the GuardShield Micro 400 light curtain [t(LC)]. (See label or if specified see configuration control document).
• The response time for the MSR42 control unit [t(C)].
• The configured stop delay for the safety output [t(delay)].
• If used the reaction time of the MSR45E expander module [t(em)].
