DIP switches as ignition source in potentially explosive atmospheres

Gases or dusts can be ignited by a spark discharge when DIP switches are used.

Switch off the power supply and wait until the 1-second UPS has discharged. Ensure that there is no explosive atmosphere before you use DIP switches.

DIP switch 2:

Setting the PROFINET name via DIP switch

If the DIP switches 9 and 10 are set to ON up to GSDML version 2.3 the default name is build out of "cx8093-" and the setting of DIP switch 1 to 8. For this at minimum one of the DIP switches 1 to 8 has to be set to ON. Example - DIP 9 and 10: ON - DIP 1 and 2:   ON - DIP 3 to 8:       OFF results in the PROFINET name cx8093-3 If the DIP switches 9 and 10 are set to ON up to GSDML version 2.3 the default name is build out of "tcpniodevice-" and the setting of DIP switch 1 to 8. For this at minimum one of the DIP switches 1 to 8 has to be set to ON. Example - DIP 9 und 10 ON, - DIP 1 and 2:  ON - DIP 3 to 8:      OFF results in the PROFINET name tcpniodevice-3
