Warning: danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or
equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
5) replace the battery with a new one
6) close the handheld and tighten the six screws
7) apply power to the handheld and check that the battery good stat s is reported.

3.4 Power Supply and Grounding
The nit m st always be gro nded to protection earth (PE). Gro nding helps limit the effects of noise
d e to electromagnetic interference on the control system.
The power s pply circ it may be floating or gro nded. In the latter case connect to gro nd the power
so rce common as shown in fig re 4 with a dashed line.
When sing the floating power scheme, note that the panels internally connect the power common to
gro nd with a 1 MΩ resistor in parallel with a 3,3 nF capacitor.
The power s pply m st have do ble or reinforced ins lation
The s ggested wiring for the power s pply is shown in fig re 4.

3.5 Applica le Regulations
Reg lations and recommendations have been iss ed in E rope covering the main safety-related iss es
in control systems, which incl de operator interfaces.
EN 60204-1 lists some important g idelines applicable when sing operator interfaces.
9.2.4 S spension of safeg ards
9.2.5.3 Stop
9.2.5.4 Emergency stop
9.2.5.6 Hold-to-r n controls
9.2.5.7 Two-hand controls
9.4 Control f nction in case of fail re
Do not se operator interface to directly command motors, valves or other act ators not eq ipped with
safeg ards and potentially harmf l to persons or eq ipment in case of fa lt to the nit.
The service personnel, when operating directly on the powered nit, m st be electrostatically
discharged.
All safety related reg lations m st be observed.
Warning: do not open the rear cover of the device when power is on.
3.6 Installation Environment
The eq ipment is not intended for contin o s expos re to direct s nlight. This might accelerate the
aging process of the front panel film.
The eq ipment is not intended for installation in contact with corrosive chemical compo nds. Check
the resistance of the front panel film to a specific compo nd before installation.

Do not se tools of any kind (screwdrivers, etc.) to operate the keyboard.
3.7 Cleaning Faceplates
The eq ipment m st be cleaned only with a soft cloth and ne tral soap prod ct. Do not se solvents.
3.8 Getting Started
ePALMs m st be programmed with the Designer software.
To program an ePALM yo will have to connect it to a personal comp ter r nning the Designer
software; the ePALM m st be in Config ration mode to be programmed.
3.8.1 Serial Communication
Make s re that Designer is correctly config red to comm nicate with the comm nication port to
which the cable attached.
The serial comm nication parameters between the panel and the personal comp ter are:
speed: 9600/38400 ba d
parity: None
stop bit: 1
The Designer software defa lts to the correct parameters.
3.8.2 Ethernet Communication
When applicable, Designer can se Ethernet to connect to the panel. Make s re all network
parameters are properly set to ens re comm nication between Designer and the panel.
The version of Designer software m st be compatible with the firmware version of the panel to be
programmed. Call technical s pport for more information on compatibility between firmware and
programming software.
3.9 Trou leshooting
In the case it might be impossible to switch the handheld to Config ration Mode d e to problems in
the start- p phase, follow the proced re described below:
1. Switch off the nit
2. Press and hold any 3 keys
3. T rn on the nit and hold the keys pressed ntil Config ration Mode will be shown on the screen.

4 Connections
The ePALM10 is available in several versions, feat ring different comm nication cables and different
sol tions for the enabling switches.
4.1 Serial Communication - Types –0061 and –0062
ePALM types –0061 and -0062 incl de all standard UniOP connections and are s itable for all
common serial comm nication links.
The ePALM10-0061 incl des a comm nication cable with a length of 5 meters.
The ePALM10-0062 incl des a comm nication cable with a length of 10 meters.
The cable does not have a connector at its loose end as it is intended to be wired directly in the control
cabinet.
The following gro ps of signals are available in the cable:
PC/Printer Port
PLC Port
A x Port
Power
Emergency Stop b tton – two NC contacts
Two 2-positions enabling switches – NO contacts
In all the most common config rations, the signals are wired to the cable and there will be no need to
open the nit to access the terminal blocks.
Note: the ePA M10 unit does not include a current loop (20 mA) interface in the P C port. The
communication modules TCM04 (Interbus), TCM07 (Simatic S7 MPI without optical
insulation), TCM08/TCM18 (Profibus DP) and TCM10/SCM11 (Ethernet) are not supported.
Internally to the prod ct all signals, excl ding emergency stop, are wired to a detachable interface
board with five terminal blocks.
The position of the terminal blocks and the n mbering of the contacts are shown in the fig re below.

Note: the wiring of the Emergency Stop button is to be considered a SE V circuit and it is
intended only for connection to low voltage circuits (below 48 VDC).
The standard cable layo t of the ePALM10-0061 and ePALM10-0062 incl des the signals of the
PC/Printer Port and the signals of the PLC Port. Witho t modifications it allows to connect to the
handheld device for programming and to set- p a connection to a field device sing RS-232, RS-422
or RS-485.
If connection to the A x Port is req ired, signals normally wired to the PLC port will have to be
man ally moved to the A x Port. Yo will have to open the prod ct to perform this operation.
When the RS-422 or RS-485 comm nication is sed, it is recommended not to leave the RXD and the
CTS signals floating, even if they are not sed in this config ration. The RXD signal sho ld be
connected to GND; the CTS signal sho ld be connected to the +5V O tp t.

Other TCM mod les are c rrently not s pported for se in these versions of the ePALM prod ct.
The following notes are important:
• The TCM mod le m st be pl gged into the nit in the slot available for this p rpose. The ePALM
m st be opened to allow for the insertion of the TCM mod le. After pl gging the mod le the
ePALM prod ct m st be caref lly closed to ens re proper sealing.
• The defa lt wiring of the A x Port CN1 m st be manually changed to connect the appropriate
signals. Fieldb s topologies do not allow long (5-10 meters) drop segments; the wiring m st
incl de incoming and o tgoing segments for all b s signals.
• The CA01 interface board does not allow adding terminator resistors to the b s lines. The ePALM
cannot be sed a final node in the network topology nless termination resistors are applied
externally.
The most common wiring layo ts will be described in detail in this chapter.
4.1.2 Connecting the ePALM to the Simatic S7 MPI network
It is recommended that the signals needed for this connection be moved from the CN3 connector
(PLC Port) to the CN1 connector (A x Port) as shown in the table below.
The table indicates the wires that m st be moved from CN3 to CN1. The signals A and B will have to
be connected to the MPI network.
Please note that it is not possible to connect the termination resistors in the ePALM.
