Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the difference between protected and warning fields?
• Protected field stops the machine. Warning field gives an alert without stopping.
• Can I configure the resolution?
• Yes. Resolution is adjustable to 30, 40, 50, 70, or 150 mm using SICK CDS software.
• How many fields can I monitor at the same time?
• Up to 4 fields can be active simultaneously (≤4 monitored protective fields).
• Is this scanner suitable for outdoor use?
• It is IP65 rated but indoor use is recommended (application is Indoor).
• What is the response time?
• 60 ms (depends on basic response time and multiple sampling configuration).
• What does “multiple sampling” mean?
• It means the scanner checks multiple times before triggering. Higher sampling reduces false trips.
• How do I clean the front screen?
• Use a soft cloth and mild glass cleaner. The screen has a scratch‑resistant coating.
• Does it come with a cable?
• No. The scanner has an M12 connector, but cable is sold separately.

Selection Guide

• Field range – choose this model (4 m protected) for shorter range needs.
• Resolution – select higher resolution (30 mm) for small objects; lower (150 mm) for larger.
• Environment – IP65 rated; suitable for dusty or wet indoor areas.
• Mounting – consider angle and height for 190° coverage.
• Output type – OSSD outputs (PNP); check your PLC input type before purchase.
• Multiple sampling – higher values improve reliability but increase response time.
