Just like a radar device, it performs continuous scanning over the wide range of 190 degrees covering the entire operating range and if an object or person happens to enter the protective area, it outputs a stop signal. The specifications of this equipment conform to the Type 3, IEC61496-3 Standards. Therefore, it is best suited for safety-related uses. The area sensor with high sensitivity and high resolution has wide-ranging applications. RS-4 is best suited for the protection of humans from mobile systems and static systems requiring safety measures up to the extent of the EN954-1 Type 3 Standards. It also can be easily installed as instrumentation for measuring the surface of objects and volume, for identifying the position or external forms and for their protection or control.

Four Protection Areas are Programmable
| Areas can randomly be set with the radius of 4 meters for the protection of humans or for an area with the radius of 15 meters for the detection of objects. |

Setting up the Protective Area
There are two ways to set the protective area.
| 1. |
Directly inputting the data from a PC
As a rectangular area by using numerical data. |
| 2. |
Learning functions
Make an outline of a protective area out of cardboard and place it before this equipment. The read-in process starts when the learning function command is executed. The device will scan the outline of the cardboard. A new protective area will be decided based on the data acquired. It also has a function to store the parameters into the database. |

Protection by Password
| Input process can be restricted to specific passwords so that it runs only when the specified passwords are inputted. Passwords corresponding to the levels of importance and safety can be set to the equipment. |
