1 About this Document
Information regarding the operating instructions
These operating instructions provide important information on how to handle Radar Measurement Systems from
SICK AG.
Prerequisites for working safely are:
- Adherence to all the specified safety instructions and guidelines.
- Complying with any local work safety regulations and general safety specifications applicable to the use of
the Radar Measurement System
These operating instructions are intended for specialists and electricians.
Important Read these instructions carefully before starting any work on the device to familiarize yourself with the
RMS320 Radar Measurement System and its functions.
The operating instructions are considered a part of the device and must be kept in an accessible location in the
immediate vicinity of the device at all times, optimally in printed format. Should the device be passed on to a third
party, these operating instructions should be handed over with it.
These operating instructions do not provide information on operating the machine in which the Radar Measurement System is integrated. For information about this, refer to the operating instructions of the respective machine.
1.1 Scope

2 For your safety
2.1 General safety notes and protective measures
Please observe the following items in order to ensure the correct and safe use of the RMS320.
The notices in these operating instructions (e.g. on use, mounting, installation or integration into the exist-
ing machine controller) must be observed.
When operating the RMS320, the national, local and statutory rules and regulations must be observed.
National/international rules and regulations apply to the installation, commissioning, use and periodic
technical inspections of the MRS320, in particular
o the work safety regulations/safety rules
o other relevant health and safety regulations.
Manufacturers and operators of the machine/system on which the RMS320 is installed are responsible
for obtaining and observing all applicable safety regulations and rules.
The tests must be carried out by specialist personnel or specially qualified and authorized personnel and
must be recorded and documented to ensure that the tests can be reconstructed and retraced at any
time.
The operating instructions must be made available to the operator of the system where the RMS320 is
used. The operator of the system is to be instructed in the use of the device by specialist personnel and
must be instructed to read the operating instructions.
The RMS320 is not a device for the protection of people in the context of the related safety standards for
machinery.
2.1.1 Quick stop and quick restart
2.1.1.1 Switch the RMS320 off
Switch off the voltage supply (power supply) for the RMS320
The RMS320 retains parameters stored in the internal, non-volatile memory. Measured values in the memory are
lost.
2.1.1.2 Switch the RMS320 on
Switch on the voltage supply (power supply) for the RMS320
The RMS320 restarts operation with the last saved parameters.
2.1.2 RADAR
General/Intended use
The RMS320 sensor is designed for both indoor and outdoor area monitoring. Within a defined detection area, the
sensor detects static and moving objects, and triggers a I/O signal upon detection of a corresponding object. Distance zones can be defined and have various functions assigned to them.
The RMS320 is designed for detection of objects within the operating range. In case an object has been detected
the integrated I/O will provide a signal. Additionally the resting time of the objects, the speed and direction of
movement within the detection range will be calculated and provided via the data telegram.
The RMS320 and the SICK firmware is designed to visualize and control objects within the operating range.
All object data can be provided via Ethernet. The RMS320 is prepared to provide the object data also via the CAN
protocol.
To operate the RMS320 the software SOPAS ET by SICK AG needs to be used.
A more detailed description of the software and parameters are listed in this document.

2.1.2.1 Health hazard as a result of high-frequency electromagnetic radiation!
The RMS30 is designed for operation in accordance with ETSI EN 300 440. During operation the human exposure
regulations covered by EN 62311 must be observed.
In order to limit human exposure to electromagnetic fields, suitable safety distances must be maintained during
both short-term and long-term work in the radiation range of the antenna(s).
Minimum distances to be maintained between the antenna and the human body during continuous transmission:
20 cm.
The RMS320 satisfies the limit values of the FCC for exposure to radiation in an uncontrolled environment.
For country-specific particulars to consider when operating the RMS320, see chapter “Operational restrictions” in
this document.
2.2 Warning notices on device
Before setting the RMS320 into operation please consider the warning instructions placed on the back side of the
RMS320 housing and the safety notes in this document.
2.3 Intended use of device
Notice:
The RMS320 sensor is intended for use in industrial environments. It is not intended for safety applications e.g.
protection of humans.
The RMS320 is used to determine objects within the detection zone according to the technical datasheet.
After fitting and setting into operation the RMS320 continuously detects the area of the detection zone. Once
objects will be detected the RMS320 provides the actual status via the I/O outputs and/or the data output protocol. These signals will be provided as long as the object is detected inside of the detection zone.
Important:
In case of any other usage as well as in case of modifications to the RMS320, e.g. due to opening the housing
during mounting and electrical installation, or to the SICK software, any claims against SICK AG under the warranty will be rendered void.
Notice:
The RMS320 is only allowed to be operated in the ambient temperature range allowed as described in the technical data sheet.
2.4 Non-intended use
The RMS320 is not designed for safety applications, detection of humans and safety applications.
