3Safety instructions
3.1 Residential applications
The Climatix touch panel is designed for applications in most residential
environments. The technical design specification ensures that the product works
stably at temperatures of -10 °C…+50 °C (+14 °F − +122 °F).
Maximum Ambient Temperature is 50 °C (122 °F).
3.2 Notes about usage
The Climatix touch panel is designed for indoor and outdoor use. Before putting the
Climatix touch panel into operation, ensure that it is installed correctly and the
working environment meets the conditions specified in Technical specifications
[➙ 25].
Contact your supplier first, if you have to use the Climatix touch panel in
environment where the condition requirement cannot be met.
●Do not use in conditions at risk of damage, such as combustible gas, steam or
dust.
●Do not use in environment with sharp temperature change or in high humidity.
Otherwise the touch panel may be damaged due to internal condensation.
●The Climatix touch screen is made of glasses. Do not knock at it heavily or with
pointed or sharp objects. Otherwise you may damage the glasses and injure
yourself.
3.3 Notes on communication
The touch panel supports the following connections to an external control device:
●RS485 connection by using a dedicated communication cable
(POL0C1.75/STD or POL0C1.80/STD).
●IP connection over Ethernet by using a dedicated communication cable
(POL0C1.80/STD).
The maximum length of an RS485 cable is 3 m.
If there is a communication problem, the LCD displays an error message “No
Device Response” and clears the message when communication is normal.
Do not route the communication cable together with an AC or DC power cable, nor
near a source of electrical noise. Make sure that both ends of the cable are
connected tightly and firmly.
The RS485 port is a communication port. It cannot be used for programming.

4Mounting and connecting
4.1 Preparations
Check the package content for visible signs of transport damage and for
completeness.
Do not install parts damaged during shipment. Contact your Siemens
representative in the event of damaged parts.
Note the information in the following sections of these operating instructions before
installing the Climatix touch panel:
●Climatic ambient conditions
●Protection classes
Avoid mounting the Climatix touch panel near other devices’ AC power cable,
controller output module, relay, or other electrical equipment.
Keep the Climatix touch panel away from equipment such as frequency converters
and power supply units, and shield all input or output cables to the equipment. The
shielding must be properly earth grounded.
4.2 Mount the Climatix touch panel
●The material in the mounting area must be sufficiently strong to ensure lasting
and safe mounting of the Climatix touch panel.
●The force of the mounting screws or device operation may not cause the
material to become deformed.
1. Put the central hole on the back of the Climatix touch panel into the mounting
screw.
2. Move the panel slightly to hook it to the left and right screws.
3. If portable operations are needed, move the panel upwards and take it down.
To comply with the sealing specification, ensure that the maximum curvature of the
mounting surface is 0.010".

4.3 Connect the Climatix touch panel
Workflow for connecting the Climatix touch panel:
1. Connect the power supply.
2. Connect the configuration PC.
3. Connect the controller.
4.3.1 Connect power supply
Please check local electrical standards and regulations. Contact the local supplier
for more details.
The following table indicates permitted rated voltage and the corresponding
tolerance range.
Rated voltage
Tolerance range
DC +24 V (-15%, +15%)
DC 20.4 ... 27.6 V
Separate the isolated DC power supply of the Climatix touch panel from a main AC
power supply. To comply with the ISC safety specification, the maximum length of
the DC power supply cable is 50 m (shield cable) or 30 m (twisted-pair cable).
●Do not share the power supply of the Climatix touch panel with any input circuit
with an inductive load, such as electromagnetic switches or radio tubes.
●An incorrectly dimensioned power supply can destroy the Climatix touch panel.
Use only 24V DC power supplies with sufficient amperage. See Technical
specifications [➙ 25].
●Take appropriate protective measures, such as installing a lighting arrester,
when placing the power supply cable in an environment subjected to lightning
strikes.
NOTICE
Use the dedicated power supply cable, POL0C1.80/STD or POL0C1.75/STD, for
power connection. It is not included in the product package. You must order it
separately.
1. Connect Side B (without power branch) of the cable with the LAN or RS485
port.
2. Switch off the power supply.
3. Insert the two power cables in Side A into the power supply terminals, making
sure that the red one connects with the DC 24 V terminal while the black one
connects with the 0 V terminal, and then secure the cables with a screwdriver.
Do not connect Climatix touch panel pin (0 V) directly to Ground of electrical panel
to avoid equalizing currents.
Ensure that the wires are connected to the correct polarities.

5Operating the Climatix touch panel
Use the touch screen to operate and use the function keys to trigger associated
configured functions within a project.
●Do not use pointed or sharp objects because they can damage the plastic
surface of the touch screen.
●Use only your fingers or a touch pen to operate the touch screen.
●Do not touch multiple operating elements at the same time to avoid triggering
unexpected actions by accident.
●Touch only one operating element on the screen at a time.
5.1 Operate the touch screen
Operating elements are touch-sensitive symbols on the screen of the Climatix
touch panel.
You activate operating elements by touching them with your finger.
●The Climatix touch panel provides a visual feedback as soon as it detects that
an operating element has been touched.
●The visual feedback is independent of any communication with the controller.
●The visual feedback signal therefore does not necessarily indicate whether the
relevant action was actually executed.
5.2 Operate the on-screen keyboard
5.2.1 Customized keyboard
A customized keyboard appears on the Climatix touch panel screen when you
touch an operating element requiring input. The keyboard may be either an ASCII
keyboard or numeric keypad depending on the type of operating element and the
required input.
You can configure the customized keyboard for an operating element in the
configuration software.

The fields “Max” and “Min” on a numeric keypad indicate the value limits. The
Climatix touch panel rejects any entry with a value outside the limits without a
notification.
The value limits are set in the configuration software.
1. Touch the desired operating element on the screen. The ASCII keyboard or
numeric keypad opens.
2. Press ENTER to confirm your entries, or cancel them with ESC. If the numeric
keypad is not closed, check if your entry is outside the value limits.
5.2.2 System keyboard
The system keyboard appears when you enter input or configure touch panel
settings. When commissioning a project, the system keyboard also appears if no
customized keyboard is enabled for the desired operating element.
●Use the Shift key (↑) to enter upper-case letters.
●Press ?123 to switch to numbers and special characters.
●Press EN to switch input language between English and Chinese.
●Press Done to confirm your entries.
