Security information
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines, and networks.
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 form one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,
machines and networks. These systems, machines and components should only be
connected to the enterprise network or the Internet if and only to the extent necessary and
with appropriate security measures (firewalls and/or network segmentation) in place.
You can find more information on protective measures in the area of industrial security by
visiting: (http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more
secure. Siemens strongly recommends performing product updates as soon as they are
available and using only the latest product versions. Use of product versions that are no
longer supported, and failure to apply 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 (http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).

Security recommendations
General
Note the following security recommendations to prevent unauthorized access:
•Keep the firmware up to date. Check regularly for security updates for the device. You can
find information on this at the Industrial Security
(https://new.siemens.com/global/en/company/topic-areas/future-of-
manufacturing/industrial-security.html) website.
•Inform yourself regularly about security recommendations published by Siemens
ProductCERT (https://new.siemens.com/global/en/products/services/cert.html).
•Evaluate your plant as a whole in terms of security. Use a cell protection concept with
suitable products.
•This product requires an additional security concept to prevent unauthorized access.
•Transponder and infrastructure can be configured for radio channels according to IEEE
802.15.4-2015. You will find details in the section
"Technical specifications".
•Ensure that the radio frequencies are not used for other purposes and are not affected by
other interfering signals. This should be ensured within the operating range of the
localization system.
•Interference in the frequency band used can impair the system and, in extreme cases, lead
to localization failure.
Physical access
•Restrict physical access to the device to qualified personnel.
•Disable unused physical interfaces of the device. Unused interfaces could be used to gain
access to the operating site.
Recycling and disposal
The products are low in harmful substances, can be recycled and meet the requirements of
the Directive 2012/19/EU for disposal of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE).
Do not dispose of the products at public disposal sites.
For environmentally compliant recycling and disposal of your electronic waste, please contact
a company certified for the disposal of electronic waste or your Siemens representative.
Note the different national regulations.

WARNING
Power supply
The equipment is designed for operation with Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) by a
Limited Power Source (LPS).
This means that only SELV / LPS complying with IEC60950-1/EN60950-1/VDE0805-1 must be
connected to the power supply terminals. The power supply unit for the equipment power
supply must comply with NEC Class 2, as described by the National Electrical Code (r) (ANSI /
NFPA 70).
WARNING
Alimentation
Cet appareil est conçu pour fonctionner à une très basse tension de sécurité (Safety Extra-
Low Voltage, SELV) fournie par une alimentation électrique à puissance limitée (Limited
Power Source, LPS).
C'est pourquoi on ne doit connecter aux bornes d'alimentation que des très basses tensions
de sécurité (TBTS) à puissance limitée (Limited Power Source, LPS) selon CEI 60950-1 / EN
60950-1 / VDE 0805-1 ou n'utiliser qu'un bloc d'alimentation de l'appareil conforme à NEC
Class 2 de la norme National Electrical Code (r) (ANSI / NFPA 70).
The labeling of electrical equipment is as follows:
