2.2 Designated use
The tablet PC for device configuration enables mobile plant asset management in hazardous
and non-hazardous areas. It is suitable for commissioning and maintenance staff to manage
field instruments with a digital communication interface and to record progress. This tablet
PC is designed as a complete solution and is an easy-to-use, touch-enabled tool which can be
used to manage field instruments during their entire life cycle. It provides extensive, pre-
installed driver libraries and offers access to the "Industrial Internet of Things" as well as to
information and documentation during the entire life cycle of the device. The tablet PC offers
a modern software user interface and the option of online updates based on a secure
Microsoft Windows 10 multi-functional environment.
2.3 Workplace safety
The tablet PC is used for device configuration. Incorrect configurations may lead to unwanted
or hazardous situations in a plant. The device configuration software is already installed on
the tablet PC upon delivery. These Operating Instructions describe how to commission and
operate the tablet PC.
• Commissioning→ 20
• Operation → 22
2.4 Operational safety
Risk of injury!
‣Operate the device in proper technical condition and fail-safe condition only.
‣The operator is responsible for interference-free operation of the device.
Modifications to the device
Unauthorized modifications to the device are not permitted and can lead to unforeseeable
dangers:
‣If, despite this, modifications are required, consult with Endress+Hauser.

Field Xpert SMT70 Product description
Endress+Hauser 9
Repair
To ensure continued operational safety and reliability:
‣Carry out repairs on the device only if they are expressly permitted.
‣Observe federal/national regulations pertaining to repair of an electrical device.
‣Use only original spare parts and accessories from the manufacturer.
2.5 Product safety
The tablet PC is designed in accordance with good engineering practice to meet state-of-the-
art safety requirements, has been tested, and left the factory in a condition in which it is safe
to operate.
It fulfills general safety requirements and legal requirements. It also conforms to the EC
directives listed in the device-specific EC Declaration of Conformity. The manufacturer
confirms this by affixing the CE mark to the device.
2.6 IT security
Our warranty is valid only if the device is installed and used as described in the Operating
Instructions. The device is equipped with security mechanisms to protect it against any
inadvertent changes to the settings.
IT security measures, which provide additional protection for the device and associated data
transfer, must be implemented by the operators themselves in line with their security
standards.
3 Product description
With an ultra-compact form factor, the tablet PC meets the most demanding requirements,
such as ingress protection (IP65) and shock resistance (4-foot drop-test and MIL-STD 810G).
The additional screen protector offers complete protection in harsh working environments.
The tablet PC's good ergonomic features also protect workers' health, keeping physical strain
to a minimum.
With the increasing popularity of 4G/LTE connectivity in hazardous areas, the tablet PC
ensures swift and seamless access to data. However, in situations where not even WLAN is
available, the optional docking station with an Ethernet interface gives the tablet PC the
necessary flexibility to link into existing network infrastructures. In addition, the latest
Bluetooth standards are also supported.
After use in the field, the tablet PC can be used as an office PC with the optional office docking
station, allowing the tablet to be seamlessly integrated into the office and business networks.
