1 Foreword
These Operating Instructions contain all relevant information for the Manta GMP IT-xx9 devices
(SERIES 400 Open HMI - Panel PCs and SERIES 500 Thin Clients). They also contain
information on the connection and installation (etc.) of these devices.
Two devices are available with the Manta GMP device platform: the IT-479-2TX and the
IT-579-2TX, both with 61 cm display (24") and 2x 10/100/1000Base-TX Ethernet interface and
AC supply.
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.
2 Device function
The MANTA GMP SERIES IT-479 and IT-579 Operator Stations (OS) have been developed for
installation in cleanrooms cleanliness class C according to EU-GMP and according to EHEDG.
Data is transmitted via dual Ethernet as 10/100/1000Base-TX via CAT7 across a distance of up
to 100 m.
The devices are connected to a communication system via the external serial interfaces (RS-232,
Ethernet). The USB interfaces, also external, can be used for the connection of various peripheral
devices. Furthermore, the interfaces for keyboard, mouse, video and audio signals are also
located here.
2.1 IT-4x9 (SERIES 400 Panel PC)
The IT-4x9 HMI devices are equipped with a Windows© operating system and can run any
software. They are therefore easy to operate.
The devices are fitted with powerful processors and are thus able to process even large
applications on-site. Thedevices have a back-up and recovery systemwhich can beused to save
complete images and load them onto new Panel PCs without requiring specific IT skills.
2.2 IT-5x9 (SERIES 500 Thin Clients)
The IT-5x9 SERIES 500 HMI devices can be integrated into modern networks as Thin Clients or
with a KVM box via KVM-over-IP. Digital Ethernet technology is used for the transmission of data
between the KVM-over-IP box and the Thin Client device.
Up to four Thin Clients can access one KVM-over-IP box with one software license, thus cost-
effectively communicating with several PCs - for example, when monitoring the production
process and simultaneously applying Condition Monitoring.
Multi-monitoring with several on-site terminals is as easy as the application as Thin Client in a
server environment with virtual work stations.

Please note that you can restore the HMI devices to their original state
only with the aid of the recovery stick.
As an option, the recovery stick can also contain a backup software,
with which you can back up your own device configuration.
11.1.3 Back-up
Please note that it is the sole responsibility of the operator to generate
a back-up of the HMI devices and their overall function.
We strongly recommend such a back-up to be stored on an external
storage medium and / or on the company network.
11.1.4 Initial start-up IT-479 (Panel PC)
When started for the first time, the Windows installation Wizard starts, prompting users to select
certain settings.
Please follow the instructions of the installation Wizard.

11.1.5 Switching off / closing down
The Microsoft Windows operating system stores key data in the main
memory, regardless of the application, and has to store this data on
the hard disk before the HMI device is switched off.
It is therefore important for the safe and correct operation that the HMI
device is "shut down" properly (see illustration below) and not simply
switched off.
Otherwise the existing image of the HMI device may be damaged,
rendering the device non-functioning.
11.1.6 Note on Windows Embedded operating systems
When using the Windows Embedded 7 operating system on the Panel PC SERIES 400 HMI
devices, the C:\ system drive can be protected from unauthorised writing (EWF).
This is not the case for other Windows operating systems!
R. STAHL HMI Systems GmbH recommends you leave the write
protection filter on at all times.
For further information on this write protection (EWF),
please refer to the OpenHMI_help_en.chm help file in the
"STAHL" folder on the HMI device or on the CD / DVD /
USB stick that is included in the delivery.
11.1.7 Loss of data
In the case of applications that require constant writing into memory,
R. STAHL HMI Systems GmbH recommends you use external storage
media (USB sticks, network servers) for these write processes.
Try and avoid cyclical writes (log files, databases, etc.) to the SSD.
The endurance of an SSD depends on the number of write cycles
(TBW / terabytes written).
Writing to the SSD with a simultaneous drop in voltage is most likely
going to result in data loss.

12 Maintenance
Because the transmission of the devices remains reliable and stable over long periods of time,
regular adjustments are not required.
Keep the units clean so that theenclosure locks and screws remain accessible. Maintenance may
be required for the enclosure seal.
The following must be checked during maintenance work:
a. Seal wear
b. Display damage
c. All screws are tightened fast
d. All cables and lines are properly connected and undamaged
13 Troubleshooting
13.1 Repairs / hazardous substances
An error description must be enclosed with any units returned to R. STAHL HMI Systems GmbH
for repairs.
Remove all material residues. Please pay particular attention to the seal grooves and slits where
material residues may be lodged. We have to ask you not to return a unit if you are unable to
completely remove any hazardous substances. We shall bill you for any costs arising from
insufficiently cleaned units, such as disposal or damage to persons (chemical burns, etc.).
14 Disposal
Disposal of packaging and used parts is subject to regulations valid in whichever country the
device has been installed.
The disposal of devices sold after August 13th, 2005, and installed in countries under the
jurisdiction of the EU is governed by directive 2002/96/EC on waste electrical and electronic
equipment (WEEE, new edition 2012/19/EU). Under this directive, the HMI devices are category
9 devices (monitoring and control devices).
We shall take back our devices according to our General Terms and Conditions.
14.1 RoHS directive 2011/65/EC
The revision of RoHS directive 2002/95/EC and the resulting revised version 2011/65/EC extends
its scope to all electric and electronic products.
The HMI devices (category 9 - monitoring and control devices) meet the requirements of RoHS
Directive 2011/65/EU dated 03.01.2013.
