Safety Guidelines
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent
damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert
symbol, notices referring to property damage only have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are
graded according to the degree of danger.
Danger
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
Warning
indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.
Caution
with a safety alert symbol, indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
Caution
without a safety alert symbol, indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.
Notice
indicates that an unintended result or situation can occur if the corresponding information is not taken into
account.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will
be used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to
property damage.
Qualified Personnel

Although the Rack PC has a rugged design, its internal components are sensitive to severe
vibrations or shock. You must therefore protect the PC from severe mechanical stress when
transporting it.
You should always use the original packaging for shipment of the device.
Caution
Risk of damage to the device!
When transporting the PC in cold weather it may be submitted to extreme variations in
temperature. In this situation, make sure that condensation does not develop on or inside
the device.
If condensation develops, wait at least 12 hours before switching on the device.
The device can be identified uniquely with the help of these numbers in case of repairs or
theft.
Enter the following data in the table below:

When you plan your project, you should make allowances for:
• Note the climatic and mechanical environmental conditions specified in the specifications
provided by your operating manual.
• The clearance in the area of the ventilation slots must be at least 100 mm, so that the PC
is sufficiently ventilated.
• Do not cover the vent slots of the device.
• The device with AC power supply satisfies fire protection requirements to EN 60950. It
may therefore be installed without additional fire-proofing measures.
• The device with DC power supply does not satisfy fire protection requirements to EN
60950. It may therefore be installed with additional fire-proofing measures
• Always observe the mounting positions permitted for this device.
Warning
Failure to adhere to these conditions when mounting the system voids the approvals
based on UL 60950, UL 508 and EN 60950!
(1) Mount the brackets onto the device using the included M3 x 5 mm screws with a max. insertion
depth of 5 mm (included in package).
Mounting examples

Warning
Ensure that the wall or ceiling is capable of carrying at least four times the total weight of the
device (including the brackets and expansion modules). The total weight is approx. 7 kg.
Notice
Connect only I/O modules approved for industrial applications to EN 61000-6-2:2001.
Note
Hot-plug I/O modules (USB) may be connected while the PC is in operation.
Caution
I/O devices not capable of hot-plugging may only be connected after the device has been
disconnected from the power supply.
Caution
Strictly adhere to the specifications for I/O modules.
Note
The varying voltage power supply module is designed for operation on 120/230/240 V AC
networks. It is not necessary to adjust the voltage range.
Caution
Do not connect or disconnect power and data cables during thunderstorms.
Caution
The device is designed for operation on grounded power supply networks (TN systems to
VDE 0100, part 300, or IEC 60364-3).
It is not designed for operation on ungrounded or impedance-grounded power networks
(IT networks).
Caution
The permitted nominal voltage of the device must conform with local mains voltage.
Caution
Pull out the power plug to completely disconnect the device from mains. Ensure easy access
to this area.
A master mains disconnect switch must be installed if the device is mounted in a switch
cabinet.
Always ensure free and easy access to the power inlet on the device or that the safety
power outlet of the building installation is freely accessible and located close to the device.
Note
The power supply contains an active PFC (Power Factor Correction) circuit to conform to the
EMC guidelines.
Uninterruptible AC power systems (UPS) must supply a sinusoidal output voltage in the
normal and buffered mode when used with SIMATIC PCs with an active PFC.
USP characteristics are described and classified in the standards EN 50091-3 and IEC
62040-3. Devices with sinusoidal output voltage in the normal and buffered mode are
identified with the classification “VFI-SS-....” or “VI-SS-....”.
Local information
Outside of the USA and Canada, operation on a 230 V power supply:
This device is equipped with a safety-tested power cord which may only be connected to
ground contact power outlet. If you choose not to use this cable, you must use a flexible
cable of the following type: min. conductor cross-section 18 AWG and 15 A / 250 V ground
contact connector. The cable set must be compliant with the safety regulations and
stipulated IDs of the country where the system is to be installed.
For the USA and Canada:
For the United States and Canada, a CSA or UL-listed power cord must be used.
The connector must be compliant with NEMA 5-15.
120 V AC power supply
To be used is a flexible power cord approved to UL and with CSA label, and which has the
following features: Type SJT with three leads, min. 18 AWG conductor cross-section, max.
4.5 m in length and parallel ground contact connector 15 A, min. 125 V.
240 V power supplyUse a flexible power cord with UL approval and with CSA label, and with
the following features: Type SJT with three leads, min. 18 AWG conductor cross-section,
max. 4.5 m in length and tandem ground contact connector 15 A, min. 250 V.
Connecting
Warning
Only connect the device to 24V DC power supply systems which meet the requirements of a
safe extra-low voltage (SELV); in addition, a protective conductor must be connected. The
conductors must withstand the short-circuit current of the 24 V DC power source, so that a
short-circuit will not damage the cable. Only connect cables with a minimum cross-section of
1.3 mm2 (AWG16) and a maximum cross-section of 3.3 mm2 (AWG12).
Notice
The 24V DC power source must be adapted to the input data of the Box PC (see
specifications).
Connecting
• Connect the peripherals, such as the keyboard, mouse, monitor and the power supply,
before putting the device into operation.
• The operating system of your device is preinstalled on the hard disk.
Caution
Risk of damage to the device!
Make sufficient allowances for the device to acquire room temperature before you put it
into use. If condensation develops, wait at least 12 hours before switching on the device.
The PC operating system is automatically set up the first time you switch on the device.
Procedure:
1. Set the ON / Off switch to I position (On). The PC performs a POST. During the self-test,
this message appears:
Notice
The PC may not be switched off when you run setup.
Do not change the default BIOS settings, otherwise the operating system setup may become
corrupted.
4. Automatic restart
After you have entered all necessary information, and after the operating system
setup is completed, the PC is automatically restarted and displays the user interface of the
relevant operating system.
From now on, after you switch on the PC, the user interface of the operating system is
automatically opened when the startup routine is completed.
In case of software errors you can reinstall your software by means of the Recovery CD, the
Documentation and Drivers CD or the Restore CD/DVD.
Recovery CD:
Contains the tools for setting up hard disk drives and the operating system.
Restore CD/DVD:
Contains a hard disk image file with the original software (operating system with installed
hardware drivers).
This chapter provides you with tips on how to localize and troubleshoot frequently occurring
problems.
