6.12 Test input (sender test)

The sender test is performed when 0 V is present at the test input (pin 3).

To be able to use the sender test button, you must also configure the Sender test function

with the aid of the CDS: Device symbol C4000 Host (sender), context menu Configuration

draft, Edit, option Enable sender test.

If you do not connect the test input, then you must deactivate the Sender test function

with the aid of the CDS. Otherwise, the safety light curtain remains permanently red.

6.13 sens:Control applications

Using sens:Control, the intelligent interface technology for safety systems, SICK provides

you with an entire range of interface products that were specially developed for interfacing

safety products and machines.

For complex applications the C4000 can be integrated into UE100 sens:Control family

safety systems. In this way the functions of the safety light curtain can be enhanced and

corresponding applications realised.

All C4000 Standard/Advanced variants are equipped with an EFI (safe SICK device com-

munication). All safety-relevant signals are transmitted using this interface. A bus interface

to a safe fieldbus is possible using the series UE1000 Intelliface device family.

You will find example circuits in the operating instructions for the series UE100 and

UE1000.
