Note
Notes on operation of the touch-sensitive glass surface with multi-finger operation function
using gestures
Observe the following notes in order to avoid incorrect operation of the touch-sensitive glass
surface with multi-finger operation function. Otherwise, entries made at the device will either be
incorrectly identified/implemented - or not at all.
● The OP 015 black does not support safety-relevant functions and these may also not be
implemented in the touch-sensitive glass surface.
● The touch-sensitive glass surface reacts to contact with its surface, not to pressure.
Therefore, do not subsequently attach a protective film to the touch-sensitive glass surface.
Also remove all protective and packaging films, as these have a negative impact/prevent
data from being entered and initiate incorrect operator entries.
● Only operate the touch-sensitive glass surface with your finger tips, not with your fingernails.
● Touch the touch-sensitive glass surface either perpendicularly or at a maximum angle of 45°
to the surface.
● Avoid unintentional multiple touches, e.g. with the knuckles or by leaning on or against the
display.
● Make sure that the surface of the touch-sensitive glass screen does not get dirty. Cleaning
information can be found on the Internet in the following article in the Service & Support
portal of Siemens Industry:
http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/39718397.
Always check whether the executed operator actions have been recognized by the device.
Note
Please observe the valid C standards for the particular machine type (e.g. for turning machines:
EN ISO 23125-2010, pages 36 and 49). These state that a button that initiates motion with the
protective door open must be implemented using an additional acknowledgment device; this is
because for single-channel keyboards – such as the OP 015 black – generally no PL
(performance level) "d" can be achieved.
Displaying the TCU menu
To display the TCU menu, simultaneously touch the left-hand and right-hand lower corner of
the active display area in order to display the TCU menu.
If you have connected a USB PC keyboard to the OP 015 black, you can also display the TCU
menu by simultaneously pressing keys F9 and F10.
Gloves
Do not wear thick gloves, such as work gloves, when operating the touch-sensitive glass
surface. You can wear thin gloves made of cotton or gloves for touch-sensitive glass surfaces
with capacitive touch function.
You can wear the following gloves for operating the touch-sensitive glass user interface of the
operator panel:
● Dermatril L
● Camatril Velours Art. 730
