Operation
Operating Guidelines Follow these operating guidelines for your panel PC.
When your panel PC is mounted in an enclosure:
• operator access is limited to the front of your panel PC, which includes the display and
the touch screen.
• keep the enclosure door closed during operation to minimize dust and other airborne
contamination entering your panel PC. Open the door only for routine maintenance.
• Always use the proper shut-down procedures as required by your OS, such as the Shut
Down command in the Microsoft Windows® OS.
• After you shut down your panel PC, do not apply power again until shutdown is
complete.
Touch Screen Precautions
IMPORTANT Access to components behind the panel where your panel PC is
installed is restricted to authorized and properly trained
personnel.
ATTENTION: Do not operate your panel PC with the covers removed. All
covers are required to maintain its electromagnetic interference (EMI)
shield.
WARNING: Failure to follow these instructions can result in potential death,
serious injury, or equipment damage.
Use of the LCD screen could result in a potentially hazardous outcome if the LCD
screen darkens, is difficult to read, or the back light is not functioning properly.
Do not use the LCD touch screen under these circumstances.
The design of the system must consider the possibility of the LCD screen or
LCD touch screen to lose functionality, which can result in the inability to use,
maintain, or change control of the system. The touch screen cannot be the
single point of control of critical functions and is not intended to replace an
E-stop. Design of the system must follow all applicable code and good
engineering practice. Factors to consider include:
• the possibility of an unreadable LCD screen.
• the possibility of an inoperable touch screen.
• unexpected communication errors or delays.
• operator error in the control of the system.
• proper use of E-stops and other safety practices.
You must provide means to achieve a safe state during anomalies and verify
that the system has adequate redundancy for critical functions.
