Introduction
1.6 Security information
SITRANS FM MAG 8000 IIoT Wireless Communication Module
6Operating Instructions, 07/2022, A5E52070595A-AA

In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary
to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security
concept. Siemens’ products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,
machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components should only be connected to
an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a connection is necessary and only
when appropriate security measures (e.g. 󹪝rewalls and/or network segmentation) are in place.
For additional information on industrial security measures that may be implemented, please
visit
https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity.
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more secure.
Siemens strongly recommends that product updates are applied as soon as they are available
and that the latest product versions are used. Use of product versions that are no longer
supported, and failure to apply the latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber
threats.
To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS Feed
under
https://www.siemens.com/cert.
1.7 Transportation and storage
To guarantee su󹪟cient protection during transport and storage, observe the following:
• Keep the original packaging for subsequent transportation.
• Devices/replacement parts should be returned in their original packaging.
• If the original packaging is no longer available, ensure that all shipments are properly
packaged to provide su󹪟cient protection during transport. Siemens cannot assume liability
for any costs associated with transportation damages.
NOTICE
Insu󹪟cient protection during storage
The packaging only provides limited protection against moisture and in󹪝ltration.
• Provide additional packaging as necessary.
Special conditions for storage and transportation of the device are listed in Technical
speci󹪝cations (Page 45).
1.8 Notes on warranty
The contents of this manual shall not become part of or modify any prior or existing agreement,
commitment or legal relationship. The sales contract contains all obligations on the part of
Siemens as well as the complete and solely applicable warranty conditions. Any statements
regarding device versions described in the manual do not create new warranties or modify the
existing warranty.

3.1 Data transmission
The Wireless Communication Module transmits information using a wireless network (4G/LTE,
LTE-M, NB-IoT, 2G). Automatic network selection is possible.
Communication with users takes place through a industrial internet of things (IIoT) web
application.
The Wireless Communication Module has the following capabilities:
• sending and receiving to a web interface
• sending measurement data (in csv 󹪝le format) by email to the prede󹪝ned email addresses or
customer speci󹪝ed FTP server
The measurement data collected from MAG 8000 is stored in the Wireless Communication
Module until it is fully transmitted. In case of a power or network failure the collected data is
stored on the SD card in the Wireless Communication Module.
