Warnings
Caution !
In ambient temperatures exceeding +45 °C the surface of the devices may heat
up. Caution when touching!
Caution !
The laser diodes installed in our Exicom operator devices, media converters and
switches emit invisible laser radiation:
100Base-FX - 1300 nm
FO-MM / 1000Base-SX - 770 … 860 nm
FO-SM / 1000Base-LX - 1270 … 1355 nm
Acc. to EN 60825-1 the laser diode is classified as a class 1M laser / Do not view
directly with optical instruments. The viewing of the laser beam through certain
optical instruments (e.g. magnifying glasses, telescopes and microscopes) from a
distance of less than 100 mm may damage eyesight. (beam output at the emitting
diode (TD-A, TD-B) or the fibre optic end).

1 Preface
These Operating Instructions contain all aspects relevant to explosion protection for the
ET-xx6-A-* HMI devices (SERIES 300 Operator Interfaces - Eagle, SERIES 400 Open HMI -
Panel PC´s and SERIES 500 Thin Clients). They also contain information on the connection
and installation of these devices.
These operating instructions contain a joint description of all three product lines: Operator
Interfaces, Panel PC´s and Thin Clients. Any differences between the three product lines will be
explicitly mentioned and dealt with. As a rule, though, the information contained in these
operating instructions applies to all models of the ET-xx6-A-* series.
The ET-xx6-A-* HMI devices with display sizes of 26 cm/10.4", 38 cm/15" and 48 cm/19" will be
available in Hardware Revision 3.
All data relevant to explosion protection from the EC-type
examination certificate were copied into these operating instructions.
For the correct operation of all associated components please note,
in addition to these operating instructions, all other operating
instructions enclosed in this delivery as well as the operating
instructions of the additional equipment to be connected !
Please note that all certificates of the HMI devices can be
found in a separate document (CE_ET-xx6-A).
You can find this document in the internet at
www.r-stahl.com or request it from R. STAHL HMI
Systems GmbH.
For more information on the HMIs please also refer to the
Manual (available as online manual on www.r-stahl.com).
2 Device function
The ET-xx6-A-* HMI devices are explosion-proof equipment for installation in hazardous areas
and can be installed in zones 1, 2, 21 and 22 according to ATEX directive.
All devices have a modular structure, which makes changes and maintenance easy. They can
be integrated into control cabinets or panels, etc.
2.1 Image sticking
Continuous displaying fixed pattern may include image sticking. It’s recommended to use
screen saver or moving content periodically if fixed pattern is displayed on the screen.
2.2 Processor types
All devices are fitted with modern, powerful processors. Depending on the type of application,
different processor types are used for the HMI devices (see Technical Data).
Starting in 2016, a new Intel® Atom™ processor type of the Bay Trail (BT / BS) platform will
gradually replace all previous processor types in the HMI devices. This new processor type
processes data four times as fast as the previous processors.

2.3 Activation pressure touchscreen
To prevent damage to the touchscreen, activation pressure on the screen must be very low (0.1
to max. 1 N).
2.4 ET-3x6-A-* (SERIES 300 Operator Interfaces)
The ET-3x6-A-* operator interfaces have been designed for the visualisation of medium-sized
automation tasks, operation as built-in device and tankfarm application in hazardous areas. The
Eagle operating stations have been designed to run with a proprietary operating system, making
them highly secure against external manipulation.
Users operate the device via the membrane keyboard integrated into the front plate and via the
LCD display with touch screen.
Communication with control and automation systems runs via the serial interfaces (RS-232
RS-422/485, Ethernet) connected in the "e"-area at the back of the devices. Various peripheral
devices, such as barcode scanners, card readers, USB sticks and WLAN / Bluetooth modules
can be connected via USB interfaces or optional fitted modules.
With a wealth of functions, these operator interfaces provide optimum visualization. Their active
communication concept in combination with integrated functionality reduce the automation
system workload.
2.5 ET-4x6-A-* (SERIES 400 Panel PC)
The ET-4x6-A-* devices are robust Panel PC´s for hazardous areas. With their pre-installed
Windows operating systems they are ready to run straight away.
As a standard, all Panel PC´s are equipped with a touch screen and several interfaces and are
based on the powerful Atom technology, making them the most powerful devices on the market.
2.6 ET-5x6-A-* (SERIES 500 Thin Clients)
The ET-5x6-A-* devices of the 500 SERIES can be integrated into modern networks as Thin
Clients or with a KVM box via KVM-over-IP, thus providing ideal and flexible access options with
central data administration.
The ET-5x6-A-* device, which is used for operation and visualization, is located in the
hazardous area, whereas the PC that is operated is located in the safe area. Each ERP / MES
network can be accessed from each Thin Client via the IP address.
The Thin Client system supports both modern technologies such as DVI and USB and older
technologies such as VGA and PS/2.
