1. Scope of Application

This document describes the configuration method for the SICK NanoScan3 laser sensor.

Second, Debugging Resources

• Safety Designer - Download the software tool for laser safety design in multiple languages.

You can also visit the SICK NanoScan3 download zone to download the latest version.

Three, connection of wiring harness

3.1 Connection between system plug-in and laser body

1. Gently insert the system plug-in into the security laser scanner;

2. Secure the system plug-in using the TX10 spanner with the hexagon socket screw and tighten to a torque of 1.3 N · m.

3.2 Making and Connecting nanoScan3 Laser Power Supply Cables

1. The M12 plug connector (8-pin) connecting cable is utilized to provide power to the laser unit. The distribution particulars of the M12 plug connector connecting cable are as follows:

2. Connect pin No. 1 to +24V DC and connect pin No. 3 to 0V DC. (For pure SLAM applications, only the laser is powered and no OSSD security output is used.) Wrap any loose wires with insulation tape to prevent short circuits.

3.3 Connecting nanoScan3 Laser Signal Cables

1. Connect the cable with a 4-pin M12 socket connector to output the laser signal. The distribution details for connecting cables with M12 socket connectors are as follows:

2. Access using a standard laser signal cable with the SRC-2000 core controller. The switch port is functional.

Fourth, Safety Designer Configuration

1. Install the Safety Designer software on your commissioning notebook.

2. Start the Safety Designer software and use a micro USB debugging cable to connect the USB port on your computer to the anterior micro USB debugging port on NanoScan3, as shown in the figure below:

3. Ensure that the lidar is turned on and select Safety Designer as depicted in the image below:

4. Once you have located the device, double-click on icons (1) and (2) as shown in the figure below to access the software configuration interface:

5. Connect to NanoScan3. Once connected, a new window will appear displaying the laser configuration interface, as shown in the image below:

6. Click on "Service" and then "User Password" in the left-hand tree. Change the administrator password to "SICKSAFE". Next, click on the "Transfer to Device" button and enter the new administrator password "SICKSAFE" in the dialog box that appears. Finally, follow the instructions shown in the figure below to complete the change of the administrator password.

7. Revise the sensor IP address: Navigate through the left-hand tree by clicking on each item successively, then select "Configuration" followed by "Addressing". Set the laser IP address to:192.168.192.100, the subnet mask to:255.255.255.0, and configure the router (gateway) as:192.168.192.1. Once the configuration is complete, click "Transfer to Device" as depicted in the image below:

8. Configure the region: Click on "Configuration" and then "Region". Use the "Draw Circle" or "Draw Square" tool in the dialog box to draw a region within the laser area. Ensure that the region is as small as possible, as depicted in the image below:

9. Configure monitoring cases by clicking on "Configuration" and then "Monitoring Case". Drag the "Field Set" from the right side of the screen using the left mouse button in the displayed interface. Place it in the box under the associated path and then select the "[OSSD to 1]" option, as shown in the picture below:

Once OSSD1 is selected, ensure that the wiring harness corresponding to OSSD is configured to 1 on the wiring harness. Failure to do so will result in an error message being displayed.

10. To set data output, click on "Configuration" and then "Data Output" as shown in the image below:

(a) Mode of transmission:

• Select [including continuous launch to target computer (routed via "addressing")]

• The IP address is:192.168.192.5

• The UDP port is set to:6060

• The router is set to:192.168.192.1

• Send selection in the following mode: [Arbitrary measurement].

(b) Select data content: select all options.

11. To transfer the edited data to the lidar, choose "Transfer to Device" from the toolbar and then click "Yes" in the dialog box that appears, as illustrated in the image below:

12. To obtain the verification report, click the "Verification" button on the toolbar and then click "Confirm" in the dialog box that appears, as illustrated in the image below:

13. Once the laser device has been configured, restart it. After the restart, use the CMD command to ping the laser device.

ping 192.168.192.100

If the ping is successful, the IP address of the laser device is configured correctly.

At this juncture, the nanoScan3 configuration is finished, and you are now able to utilize the SRC-2000(S) controller.

Five, Configuration of Model Files

The robot is equipped with a solitary laser, and its configuration is as follows:

6. 导入配置文件

Reduce configuration time by uploading the configured project file to the device.

• Configuration file with IP address 192.168.192.100

• Configuration file with IP address 192.168.192.101

The steps for configuration are as follows:

1. Double-click to open the prepared configuration file and wait for the Safety Designer software to open.

2. Select the "Configuration" option and click the "Connect" button. Wait until the NanoScan device is connected, as shown in the picture.

3. Using your mouse, drag the Nano device from the left panel and drop it onto the configuration file in the left frame, as illustrated in the image.

4. Firstly, the IP address of [Configuration] - [addressing] is sent to the laser unit, as illustrated in the figure.

5. Double-click the configuration file in the left box to confirm the internal parameters and select "Transfer to Device". Click "Yes" in the pop-up dialog box that appears, as shown in the figure.

6. To obtain the verification report, click the "Verification" button on the toolbar and then click "Confirm" in the dialog box that appears, as shown in the image:

If there are no errors, the verification report will be obtained, as shown in the image below:
