I/O devices
WARNING
Equipotential bonding of the signal cable shields
When you connect long signal cables (particularly with
connections between buildings), make sure the signal cables are
always integrated into the local equipotential bonding system
(connecting the cable shielding to the protective conductor).
NOTICE
Fault caused by I/O devices
The connection of I/O devices can cause faults in the device. The
result may be personal injury and damage to the machine or plant.
Note the following:
Only connect I/O devices which are approved for industrial
•
applications in accordance with EN 61000-6-2/IEC 61000-6-2.
I/O devices that are incapable of hot-plugging may only be
•
connected after the device has been disconnected from the
power supply.
Use high-quality connection cables and adapters for the I/O
•
devices.
If possible, use short connection cables for your I/O devices.
•
Damage through regenerative feedback
Regenerative feedback of voltage to ground by a connected or
installed component can damage the device.
Connected or built-in I/O, for example, a USB drive, must not
supply any voltage to the device. Regenerative feedback is
generally not permitted.
WARNING
Networks across multiple buildings
Only the LAN interface at the docking station is permissible for
networks across multiple buildings.
Intense high frequency radiation
NOTICE
Observe immunity to high frequency radiation
The device has an increased immunity to RF radiation according
to the specifications on electromagnetic compatibility.
Radiation exposure to immunity levels above the specified limits
can impair device functions, result in malfunctions and cause
harm to persons and machines.
Immunity to RF 10 V/m with 80% amplitude modulation at
interference 1 kHz,
in accordance with SPH 150 kHz to 80 MHz
(to IEC 61000-4-6)
10 V/m with 80 % amplitude modulation
with 1kHz,
80 MHz to 1000 MHz
(to IEC 61000-4-3)
3 V/m with 80% amplitude modulation at
1 kHz,
1.4 GHz - 2 GHz (to IEC 61000-4-3)
1 V/m, with 80% amplitude modulation at
1 kHz,
2.0 GHz – 2.7 GHz (to IEC 61000-4-3)

Notes about usage

NOTICE
Ambient conditions and chemical resistance
Unsuitable environmental conditions have a negative impact on
device operation. Chemical substances, such as cleaners or fuels,
can change the color, shape and structure of the device surface.
The device may be damaged, possibly resulting in malfunctions.
For this reason, please observe the following precautions:
Always operate the device in closed rooms. All warranties
•
shall be void in the case of noncompliance.
Operate the device only in accordance with the ambient
•
conditions specified in the technical specifications.
Protect the device against dust, moisture and heat.
•
Do not expose the device to direct sunlight or to other strong
•
sources of light.
Without additional safety measures, such as a supply of clean
•
air, the device may not be used in locations with harsh
operating conditions caused by acidic vapors or gases.
•
Always use suitable cleaning agents. Observe the notes
regarding chemical resistance that is available on the Internet
(see operating instructions, "Service and Support" pages,
After Sales Information System SIMATIC PC/PG).
Certificates and approvals
Certificates and approvals can be found on the device and at
SIEMENS Technical Support on the Internet under: Technical

Unpacking and checking the delivery

1. When accepting a delivery, please check the packaging and the
contents for visible transport damage.
2. If any transport damage is present at the time of delivery, lodge a
complaint at the shipping company in charge. Have the shipper
confirm the transport damage immediately.
3. Keep the original packaging in case you have to transport the unit
again.
4. If the contents of the packaging are incomplete, damaged or do
not match your order, inform the responsible delivery service
immediately. Fax the enclosed form "SIMATIC IPC/PG Quality
Control Report".
WARNING
Electric shock and fire hazard due to damaged device
A damaged device can be under hazardous voltage and
trigger a fire in the machine or plant. A damaged device has
unpredictable properties and states. This can result in
personal injuries or material damage.
Make sure that the damaged device is not inadvertently
installed and put into operation. Label the damaged device
and keep it locked away. Send off the device for immediate
repair.
5. When storing the device, please note:
– Store the device in a dry place.
– Bring the device to room temperature before commissioning.
– Do not expose the device to direct heat radiation from a
heating device.
– If condensation develops: Wait approximately 12 hours or
until the device is completely dry before switching it on.
6. Please keep the enclosed documentation in a safe place. It
belongs to the device.
