Teach-in

Prior to initial commissioning, you must perform a new teach-in procedure. The
following occurs during teach-in:

The SC300 detects the current connection configuration and configures the internal
restart interlock, the external device monitoring and the locking of the internal teach-
in key to suit. In the default delivery status, these functions are deactivated.

The SC300 detects the protective field based on the reflective tape. In the default
delivery status, the SC300 has no protective field configured.

How to teach-in the current configuration and shape of the protective field:
Ensure camera and reflective tape are correctly mounted and the electrical connections
have been made.

Switch on the SC300. The

LED is constantly illuminated.

Ensure the machine is in a safe condition!

While you configure the safety sensor system, the machine could
start unintentionally.

Ensure that the whole system is in a safe condition during the
configuration process.

ATTENTION

Ensure there are no objects in the protective field during teach-
in.

Only the longest contiguous section of the reflective tape is
taught-in by the SC300. If there are gaps in the reflection, e.g.
because the reflective tape has been damaged or because there
is an object in the protective field, the safety sensor system will
ignore the shorter section of the reflective tape.
