Connecting the Panel PC

CAUTION

Risk of electric shock

Dangerous touch voltages can lead to electric shock. To avoid electric shock, observe the following:

Never connect or disconnect the device cables during a thunderstorm.
Provide protective earthing for handling the device.

To make the device ready for operation, you have to connect it. The first step is to ground the device. Then you can connect the cables and the power supply.

An external power supply unit is required to supply 24 V DC (-15 %/+20 %) for the operation of the device.

The cabling of the panel PC in the control cabinet must be done in accordance with the standard EN 60204-1:2006 PELV = Protective Extra Low Voltage:

The PE conductor (protective earth) and the "0 V" conductor of the voltage source must be on the same potential (connected in the control cabinet).
Standard EN 60204-1:2006, section 6.4.1:b stipulates that one side of the circuit, or a point of the energy source for this circuit must be connected to the protective conductor system.

Peripheral devices connected to the device with their own power supply must have the same potential for the PE and "0 V" conductors as the control panel (no potential difference).
