For high quality of the localization, we recommend to consider the following information
about the sensors.
microScan3
Protective field range 9 m (64 m warning field range)
•
The sensors with 64 m measurement range are preferred over the ones with 40 m
me
asurement range. They can be used in both configurations, 50 ms and 40 ms
scan cycle time. Smaller scan cycle times allow potentially higher velocities, how‐
ever, are primarily dependent on your risk assessment.
Pr
otective field range 4 m and 5.5 m (40 m warning field range)
•
When using the sensors with 40 m measurement range, they can be used in both
igurations, 40 ms and 30 ms scan cycle time, with corresponding 0.39° and
conf
0.51° resolution. A smaller scan cycle time allows potentially higher velocities. A
higher resolution allows the detection of smaller objects. However, the configura‐
tion is primarily dependent on your risk assessment.

MICROSCAN3 CONFIGURATION OF THE DATA OUTPUT 6
6MicroScan3 configuration of the data output
6.1Important notes
Using the safe 2D LiDAR sensor does require the safety-related functions of the sensor
o be fully configured. The configuration needs to be valid and verified and the sensor
t
must not be in error mode.
When using PROFINET scanners, the inputs have to be configured in the same way as
the scanner is integrated. E.g. if there is an input signal configured, the input source
has to be electrically applied.
6.2Overview
For more information on the microScan3’s data output via UDP and TCP/IP, refer to the
doc
ument with the following SICK part numbers:
8022706
•
DANGER
Danger of using data output for safety function
Data output may only be used for general monitoring and control tasks.
Do not use data output for safety-related applications.
b
Data output allows for the output of measurement data and other data via the Ethernet
erface. Other network participants, the receivers, can call up and use the data.
int
The data output works in different send modes:
On request: Data is output when there is an explicit request from a host computer
•
via TCP/IP using CoLa2
Continuous and on request: Data is output continuously via UDP to a defined target
•
address and also when there is an explicit request from a host computer via
TCP/IP using CoLa2
6.3Activating and configuring data output

Angular range
You can define the range within which measurement data and data relating to field
interruptions is output.
6.5Multiple receivers of measurement data via broadcast
Overview
If y
ou want to transmit measurement data from the safety laser scanner to multiple
clients, you must use broadcasting.
For the default Ethernet configuration of the SIM, the port 2 is:
IP: 192.168.1.1
•
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
•
The broadcast IP address for this subnet (derived from IP of the SIM) is:
192.168.1.255
•
Important information
NOTE
W
hen using multiple LiDARs, a different receiver port for each sensor must be config-
ured (UDP port). For example:
UDP port Safety Scanner 1: 6060
•
UDP port Safety Scanner 2: 6061
•
If multiple sensors use the same receiver port, the scans may interfere with each other.
This may cause a fault in LiDAR-LOC or any customer application. Setting a receiver port
number in the range between 51000 and 51100 may cause interference with other
sensor configurations and should be avoided.
NOTE
hen localizing, please close the SICK Safety Designer. The CoLa-A communication of
W
the SICK Safety Designer interferes with the CoLa-A communication of LiDAR-LOC.
Approach
1.
In the Safety Designer, open Configuration → Addressing.
2.In the section IP address, configure the Ethernet interface IP of the microScan3 to
an unused IP address in the subnet, e.g. 192.168.1.2.
