2 Important Instructions for Use
2.1 Appropriate Use
2.1.1 Introduction
Bosch Rexroth products represent state-of-the-art developments and manu‐
facturing. They are tested prior to delivery to ensure operating safety and
reliability.
The products may only be used in the manner that is defined as appropriate. If
they are used in an inappropriate manner, then situations can develop that may
lead to property damage or injury of personnel.
Bosch Rexroth, as manufacturer, is not liable for any damages re‐
sulting from inappropriate use. In such cases, the guarantee and
the right to payment of damages resulting from inappropriate use
are forefeited. The user alone carries all responsibility of the risks.
Before using Bosch Rexroth products, make sure that all the pre-requisites for
appropriate use of the products are satisfied:
● Personnel that in a way, shape or form uses our products must first read
and understand the relevant safety instructions and be familiar with ap‐
propriate use.
● If the product takes the form of hardware, then they must remain in the
original state, in other words, no structural changes are permitted. It its not
permitted to decompile software products or alter source codes.
● Do not mount damaged or faulty products or use them in operation.
● Make sure that the products have been installed in the manner described
in the relevant documentation.
2.1.2 Areas of Use and Application
The Rexroth IndraMotion MTX control is used to
● Programming contour and machining technology (feedrate, spindle
speed, tool change) or a workpiece.
● Guiding a machining tool along a programmed path.
Feed drives, spindles and auxiliary axes of a machine tool are activated via
SERCOS interface.
This additionally requires I/O components for the integrated PLC
which, in combination with the actual CNC, controls the machining
process as a whole and also monitors this process with regard to
technical safety.
The unit may be operated only with the explicitly specified hardware
component configurations and combinations and only with the soft‐
ware and firmware specified in the appropriate documentations and
functional descriptions.
The Rexroth IndraMotion MTX has been developed for control tasks in multi-
axis installations.
Typical applications are:
● lathes
● milling machines

3 Safety Instructions for Electric Drives and Controls
3.1 Definitions of Terms
Application Documentation Application documentation comprises the entire documentation used to inform
the user of the product about the use and safety-relevant features for config‐
uring, integrating, installing, mounting, commissioning, operating, maintaining,
repairing and decommissioning the product. The following terms are also used
for this kind of documentation: User Guide, Operation Manual, Commissioning
Manual, Instruction Manual, Project Planning Manual, Application Manual, etc.
Component A component is a combination of elements with a specified function, which are
part of a piece of equipment, device or system. Components of the electric drive
and control system are, for example, supply units, drive controllers, mains
choke, mains filter, motors, cables, etc.
Control System A control system comprises several interconnected control components placed
on the market as a single functional unit.
Device A device is a finished product with a defined function, intended for users and
placed on the market as an individual piece of merchandise.
Electrical Equipment Electrical equipment encompasses all devices used to generate, convert, trans‐
mit, distribute or apply electrical energy, such as electric motors, transformers,
switching devices, cables, lines, power-consuming devices, circuit board as‐
semblies, plug-in units, control cabinets, etc.
Electric Drive System An electric drive system comprises all components from mains supply to motor
shaft; this includes, for example, electric motor(s), motor encoder(s), supply
units and drive controllers, as well as auxiliary and additional components, such
as mains filter, mains choke and the corresponding lines and cables.
Installation An installation consists of several devices or systems interconnected for a de‐
fined purpose and on a defined site which, however, are not intended to be
placed on the market as a single functional unit.
Machine A machine is the entirety of interconnected parts or units at least one of which
is movable. Thus, a machine consists of the appropriate machine drive ele‐
ments, as well as control and power circuits, which have been assembled for
a specific application. A machine is, for example, intended for processing,
treatment, movement or packaging of a material. The term "machine" also cov‐
ers a combination of machines which are arranged and controlled in such a way
that they function as a unified whole.
Manufacturer The manufacturer is an individual or legal entity bearing responsibility for the
design and manufacture of a product which is placed on the market in the in‐
dividual's or legal entity's name. The manufacturer can use finished products,
finished parts or finished elements, or contract out work to subcontractors.
However, the manufacturer must always have overall control and possess the
required authority to take responsibility for the product.
Product Examples of a product: Device, component, part, system, software, firmware,
among other things.
Project Planning Manual A project planning manual is part of the application documentation used to
support the sizing and planning of systems, machines or installations.
Qualified Persons In terms of this application documentation, qualified persons are those persons
who are familiar with the installation, mounting, commissioning and operation
of the components of the electric drive and control system, as well as with the
hazards this implies, and who possess the qualifications their work requires. To
comply with these qualifications, it is necessary, among other things,

3.3 Instructions with Regard to Specific Dangers
3.3.1 Protection Against Contact with Electrical Parts and Housings
This section concerns components of the electric drive and control
system with voltages of more than 50 volts.
Contact with parts conducting voltages above 50 volts can cause personal
danger and electric shock. When operating components of the electric drive
and control system, it is unavoidable that some parts of these components
conduct dangerous voltage.
High electrical voltage! Danger to life, risk of injury by electric shock or serious
injury!
● Only qualified persons are allowed to operate, maintain and/or repair the
components of the electric drive and control system.
● Follow the general installation and safety regulations when working on
power installations.
● Before switching on, the equipment grounding conductor must have been
permanently connected to all electric components in accordance with the
connection diagram.
● Even for brief measurements or tests, operation is only allowed if the
equipment grounding conductor has been permanently connected to the
points of the components provided for this purpose.
● Before accessing electrical parts with voltage potentials higher than 50 V,
you must disconnect electric components from the mains or from the pow‐
er supply unit. Secure the electric component from reconnection.
● With electric components, observe the following aspects:
Always wait 30 minutes after switching off power to allow live capacitors
to discharge before accessing an electric component. Measure the elec‐
trical voltage of live parts before beginning to work to make sure that the
equipment is safe to touch.
● Install the covers and guards provided for this purpose before switching
on.
● Never touch electrical connection points of the components while power
is turned on.
● Do not remove or plug in connectors when the component has been pow‐
ered.
● Under specific conditions, electric drive systems can be operated at mains
protected by residual-current-operated circuit-breakers sensitive to uni‐
versal current (RCDs/RCMs).
● Secure built-in devices from penetrating foreign objects and water, as well
as from direct contact, by providing an external housing, for example a
control cabinet.
