CP72xx 7Version: 3.0

2.3 Fundamental safety instructions

The following safety instructions must be observed when handling the device.

Application conditions

• Do not use the device under extreme environmental conditions.

• Only use the device in hazardous areas if it is explicitly designed for this purpose.

• Do not carry out any work on the device while it is live. Always switch off the supply voltage for the

device before mounting it, replacing device components or rectifying malfunctions. This does not apply

to the replacement of hard disks in a RAID configuration.

• Never plug or unplug connectors during thunderstorms. There is a risk of electric shock.

2.5 Notes on information security

The products of Beckhoff Automation GmbH & Co. KG (Beckhoff), insofar as they can be accessed online,

are equipped with security functions that support the secure operation of plants, systems, machines and

networks. Despite the security functions, the creation, implementation and constant updating of a holistic

security concept for the operation are necessary to protect the respective plant, system, machine and

networks against cyber threats. The products sold by Beckhoff are only part of the overall security concept.

The customer is responsible for preventing unauthorized access by third parties to its equipment, systems,

machines and networks. The latter should be connected to the corporate network or the Internet only if

appropriate protective measures have been set up.

In addition, the recommendations from Beckhoff regarding appropriate protective measures should be

observed. Further information regarding information security and industrial security can be found in our

https://www.beckhoff.com/secguide.

Beckhoff products and solutions undergo continuous further development. This also applies to security

functions. In light of this continuous further development, Beckhoff expressly recommends that the products

3.2.1 Power supply

The panel PC is supplied with a nominal voltage of 24V. The power supply and the protective earth of the

panel PC are connected via the 12-pin round connector (X101). The cable is routed through the mounting

arm adapter. The main supply voltage is applied between pins 5 (0V) and 6 (24 V). If the panel PC is

equipped with an integrated uninterruptible power supply (UPS), an external battery can additionally be

connected to PIN 1 and PIN 2. The Beckhoff option C9900-U330 is available for this purpose.

3.2.2 Ethernet RJ45

The basic version of the panel PC has an Ethernet RJ45 interface (X106) in the form of a push-pull built-in

socket. The 100Base-T, 1000Base-T and 2500Base-T Ethernet standards enable the connection of

corresponding network components and data rates of 100/1000/2500Mbit/s. The required speed is selected

automatically. The cable is routed through the mounting arm adapter.

The RJ45 connection technology with twisted-pair cables is used. The maximum length of the cable

connection is 100m.

The controllers is used as follows, based on the device generation:
