Safety
2 Safety
This chapter concerns your own safety and the safety of the WGS driver assistance system
users.
Please read this chapter carefully before you begin working with WGS.
2.1 Qualified safety personnel
The WGS must be installed, commissioned, and maintained only by adequately qualified
personnel.
A qualified person
has sufficient skills in the field of the respective equipment based on their technical
training and experience and
has been instructed by the manufacturer in system operation and all applicable safety
guidelines and
is familiar with all relevant country-specific occupational safety regulations, work safety
regulations, guidelines, and generally accepted technical rules and standards (e.g.,
DIN standards, VDE regulations, country-specific rules) to such an extent that he/she
is able to evaluate the safe condition of the power-operated equipment, and he/she
has access to and has read the operating instructions.
The installation of the WGS requires extensive knowledge of control engineering.
As a result, the WGS driver assistance system can only be integrated into a vehicle by the
vehicle manufacturer or an integrator.
The WGS cannot be integrated and put into operation by the end user.
2.2 Applications of the system
The WGS is a vehicle assistance system for the automated guidance of agricultural
machines for the optimal harvesting of crops from a windrow using conventional pick-up
machines.
Regardless of the windrow's deposit quality, the harvesting of the crops is adapted to the
actual local conditions on the field using WGS.
Current status: conventional windrows at a glance
A regular and lightly formed windrow is critical for the optimal performance and speed
of harvesting machines such as balers or choppers. Accumulated clippings or irregular
windrow stacking positions frequently represent causes for blockages or loss of
performance.
If the tractor driver is driving only by sight, it would be difficult for him or her to take
advantage of the optimum performance of his or her machine. The harvesting machine
can clog if it drives over a thick windrow too quickly. If the machine is driving too slowly,
it is not being used optimally and precious harvesting time is lost.

Safety
Solution: automated windrow guidance with WGS
WGS does just that. The system determines the exact position of the windrow path in real
time during the harvesting process and also provides information about the respective
material density. During this process, a laser scanner installed on the roof of the tractor
scans the windrow path proactively.
Information about the windrow positions and the respective windrow volumes are
forwarded to the vehicle control system as control information for the longitudinal or
transverse control and for regulating the speed of the agricultural machine via the ISOBUS.
The harvest trailer can subsequently be optimally guided over the windrow (either in the
middle or above the center of an area). Driving over the windrow is slowed down when
a larger volume is present. Crops are harvested at high speeds when there is little volume
in the windrow.
As a result, the WGS makes it possible to increase productivity, while simultaneously
assisting the driver.
WGS only detects areas that are visible for the laser scanner in the measurement plane.
In order for this to take place, the laser scanner must have a free view of the areas to be
monitored.
2.3 Intended use
WGS may only be used as described in section 2.2 Applications of the system. It may
only be used by qualified personnel in the environment in which it was mounted and
initially commissioned by qualified safety personnel in accordance with these operating
instructions.
WGS is a system designed for installation in harvesting vehicles that are ISOBUS
compatible. The harvesting vehicles must have corresponding interfaces for automatic
speed control and for controlling an automatic steering system.
WGS is an auxiliary system. Accordingly, the WGS must be integrated into the harvesting
vehicle so that the driver can override or switch the system off at any time.
The driver bears the full responsibility for safe operation of the harvesting vehicle at all
times, in particular for people who are in the hazardous zones of the harvesting vehicle.
The WGS is not a safety device for human protection and therefore does not comply
with any safety standards. For safety applications, please contact SICK AG.
In the event of any other usage or of modification to the system including in the context
of mounting and installation any claims against SICK AG under the warranty will be
rendered void.

Safety
System does not comply with safety standards
WGS is not suitable for the protection of persons according to the applicable safety
standards for machines. The system therefore does not comply with safety standards.
WGS is a driver assistance system. The driver bears the full responsibility for safe
operation of the harvesting vehicle at all times, in particular for people who are in the
hazardous zones of the harvesting vehicle.
WGS must be integrated into the system so that the driver can override or switch the
system off at any time.
2.4.3 Potential sources of danger
Laser light
Damage to the eye by laser beams
The TiM351 laser scanner used by WGS conforms to laser class 1 (eye-safe) in accordance
with EN 60 825-1 (see laser warning label on the device for publication date). This ensures
compliance with 21 CFR 1040.10 except for the tolerances according to Laser Notice
No. 50 of July 26, 2001.
The laser operates at a γ = 850 nm wavelength (invisible infrared light). The laser beam is
not visible to the human eye.
The radiation emitted in normal operation is harmless to human skin and eyes.
Improper use (e.g., opening the housing and stopping the motor) can result in dangerous
exposure to radiation.
Never open the laser scanner housing. Opening the housing does not interrupt the
operation of the laser beam.
Observe the laser safety regulations as per IEC 60 825Q1 (latest version).
No maintenance is required to ensure compliance with laser class 1.
The laser output aperture is the front screen on the laser scanner.

Safety
Electrical current
Risk of injury and damage caused by electrical current
Improper handling of live devices may lead to severe personal injury or death by electric
shock.
Electrical installation and maintenance work must always be carried out by personnel
authorized to do so.
The power supply must be disconnected when attaching and detaching electrical
connections.
Select and implement wire cross-sections and their correct fuse protection in
accordance with the applicable standards.
Do not touch any live components.
In the event of danger, immediately disconnect the system from the power supply.
Always use original fuses with the specified current rating.
Report any damaged cables to the maintenance team without delay.
Observe the current safety regulations when working on electrical systems.
Risk of injury and damage caused by potential equalization currents
The TiM3xx is designed and tested for electrical safety in accordance with EN 60950-1
(2006-04)/A11 (2009-03).
It is connected to the peripheral devices via shielded cables. The cable shield (e.g.
supply cable) is connected to the metal housing of the TiM351. The device can either be
grounded through the cable shield or through both fastening latches.
If the peripheral devices have metal housings and if the cable shields also are connected
to these housings, it is assumed that all devices contained in the system have the same
ground potential.
This is achieved, for example, by complying with the following conditions:
Mounting the devices on conductive metal surfaces.
Properly grounding the devices and metal surfaces in the system.
Low-impedance and current-carrying equipotential bonding between areas with different
ground potentials, if necessary.
If these conditions are not met, e.g., on devices in a widely distributed system over several
buildings, potential equalization currents may, due to different ground potentials, flow
along the cable shields between the devices and create hazards.
Potential equalization currents between the TiM3xx and other grounded devices in the
system can have the following effects:
Dangerous voltages on the metal housing, e.g. of the TiM3xx
Incorrect function or irreparable damage to the devices
Damage/irreparable damage of the cable shield due to heating and cable fires
For smaller installations with only slight potential differences, the insulated installation
of the TiM3xx and of peripheral devices may be a sufficient solution.

3.2 System components
3.2.1 Laser scanner TiM351
A TiM351 laser scanner installed on the roof of the agricultural machine continuously
monitors the ground in front of the vehicle in a radius of up to 6 m from the sensor during
the harvesting process.
Laser scanners are electro-optical sensors that use non-contact laser beams to scan the
outline of their surroundings in a plane. They measure their surroundings in two-dimensional
polar coordinates.
A rotating mirror is used to deflect the pulsed light in a horizontal area. Due to the rotation
of the mirror, a multitude of single measurements are merged to form an entire scan of an
area. Scanning occurs in a sector up to 270°.
The laser beam is emitted through the front screen. The scan plane position is indicated by
a housing marking next to the front screen.
Fig. 2: Scan plane of the TiM351
Range finding
The 2D laser scanner measurement technology is based on what is known as the time-of-
flight measurement. The laser emits beams pulsed using a laser diode. If a laser pulse hits
an object or person, it is reflected by the surface of the object or person in question. The
reflection is registered by a photo-diode in the laser scanner's receiver. The laser scanner
combines the sender and receiver in a single housing.
With what is known as the pulse time method, the distance between the sensor and the
object is calculated by measuring the time interval between the emission of the laser
pulse and the pulse being received again. Radar systems apply this “pulse time-of-flight
measurement” principle in a similar way.

System description
Direction measurement
The rotating mirror enables radial scanning of the environment. The individual measure-
ments are triggered internally by an encoder in regular angle increments. One complete
rotation represents one measuring process (scan).
The TiM351 works at a scanning frequency of 15 Hz, i.e. it performs 15 measuring
processes per second and makes the measurement results continuously available in real
time via the Ethernet interface.
The measuring procedure uses the averaging from multiple pulses to determine individual
measured values. At an angular resolution of 1°, a measuring point is composed of
an average of 84 measurements. The spot geometry of the submeasuring points is
almost circular, with a measuring point taking the form of a narrow rectangle through
superposition.
Fig. 4: Direction measurement of the TiM351
Firmware and WGS software
The firmware and WGS software pre-installed in the TiM351 laser scanner upon delivery
are inter-coordinated. They are updated together as a part of a program update.

System description
3.2.2 CAN/Ethernet converter
Due to the fact that the TiM351 laser scanner only has one Ethernet port, a CAN/Ethernet
converter is required for the connection of the sensor to the harvesting vehicle’s CAN
communication. For this purpose, the protocol converter provides a LAN connection and a
CAN interface.
The CAN/Ethernet converter makes it possible for the WGS to be integrated into the
vehicle control system via the ISOBUS. The ISOBUS interface is the industry standard for
agriculture applications. It enables ISOBUS-compliant accessory devices to be controlled
via a uniform protocol, regardless of design or manufacturer.
An existing CAN/Ethernet converter can always be used.
If no CAN/Ethernet converter is at hand yet, the CAN/Ethernet converter available as an
accessory is recommended. The converter is preconfigured upon delivery and can directly
be used by the WGS driver assistance system directly.
Fig. 6: CAN/Ethernet converter
3.2.3 Ethernet switch
Optionally, an Ethernet switch connects the laser scanner with the protocol converter.
The connection of the laser scanner via an Ethernet switch enables the analysis of the CAN
communication during operation as well as upgrading the system via a connected
configuration computer.
