PRO devices of the type "suitable for support arm" or "suitable for stand" can be mounted on a
support arm or stand using the base adapter. Depending on the support arm system used, an
adapter plate may have to be installed in addition (see Accessories (Page 18)).
A base adapter is included with the corresponding PRO devices. The base adapter can also be
ordered separately.

Flange mount for device version "support arm and extension components"
An optional flange mount that is not included in the product package is available for the
device version "support arm and extension components".
The flange mount converts the flange mount connection into a mechanically compatible
interface to the base adapter. The flange of the flange mount has the same drilling pattern as
the base adapter. This means you can use all couplings of the support arm or pedestal
systems with mechanical interface for the base adapter (see Accessories (Page 18)).

1.4.4 Extension Unit and operator controls
Extension components - Extension Unit
Note
When the IPC277G PRO is extended with an Extension Unit, the effect on the device
approvals for the entire system must be considered.
The Extension Unit is used to install additional operator controls under a SIMATIC PRO device
of the type "Suitable for extension components" with 16:9 display.
The example in the figure below shows the Extension Unit 22" with eight operator controls
including emergency stop button.

1.4 System components
SIMATIC IPC277G PRO
Operating Instructions, 02/2022, A5E51373692-AA 17
The Extension Units have individual configuration possibilities and are supplied without
operator controls. The available slots are suitable for installation of operator controls.
The Extension Units are available in 3 different sizes:
•12"
•15"
•19"
For greater flexibility, three different connection options can be selected per size for the PLC
connection of the operator controls:
•Hardwired
•PROFINET
•PROFIsafe
In addition, different operator controls such as emergency stop, selector switch, illuminated
pushbutton, keyswitch, indicator light or RFID reader are available.
Note
Only operator controls with Siemens approval may be installed in the Extension Unit.
You can find information on "System components for PRO device Extension Units" on the
Internet (https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/us/en/view/109742323).

2.1 General safety instructions
WARNING
Life-threatening voltages are present with an open control cabinet
When you install the device in a control cabinet, some areas or components in the open
control cabinet might be carrying life-threatening voltages.
If you touch these areas or components, you might be killed by electric shock.
Switch off the power supply to the cabinet before opening it.
WARNING
The installer of the system is responsible for the safety of a system in which the device
is integrated
There is a risk of malfunction which could result in death or serious injury.
•Ensure that only suitably qualified personnel perform the work.
WARNING
The equipment is designed for operation with Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) or
Protective Extra-Low Voltage (PELV).
This means that electrical circuit in which the voltage cannot exceed 30 VAC (RMS), 42.4
VAC peak or 60 VDC under NORMAL CONDITIONS and CONDITIONS OF A SINGLE FAULT,
including ground faults in other circuits.
System expansions
NOTICE
Damage through system expansions
Device and system expansions might be faulty and can affect the entire machine or plant.
The installation of expansions can damage the device, machine or plant. Device and system
expansions can violate safety rules and regulations regarding radio interference
suppression. If you install or exchange system expansions and damage your device, the
warranty becomes void.
