5.2 Sensor field of view
5.2.1 Types of field of view
During the configuration phase, for each sensor it is possible to select the angular coverage of each field in a
range from 10° to 100°. See "Angular coverage" on page28.
The actual detection field of the sensor also depends on the sensor installation height and inclination. See
"Calculation of range of distances" on page46.
5.2.2 Areas and dimensions of the field of view
The sensor field of view is composed of two areas:
l detection field [A]:where detection of objects similar to humans in any position is guaranteed.
l tolerance area [B]:where the actual detection of a moving object/person depends on the characteristics of
the object itself (see "Factors that influence the reflected signal" on page27).
Dimensions for the access detection function
Note: the tolerance area dimensions described are related to the detection of humans.
The tolerance area is 20° greater than the angular coverage set.
