1.4 Items delivered
The COMPACTc7 comes without external cabling and power supply. These additional items must be
ordered separately and installed according to the respective user documentations.
1.5 Installation
The installation of the COMPACTc7 system is described in chapter 6 of this documentation.
Important Note
Before applying power to the COMPACTc7 system, all installed boards must be correctly
configured and mounted.
1.6 Safety Recommendations and Warnings
The products are intended for measurement, control and communications applications in industrial
environments. The products must be assembled and installed by specially trained people. The strict
observation of the assembly and installation guidelines is mandatory.
The use of the products in systems in which life or health of persons is directly dependent (e.g. life support
systems, patient monitoring systems, etc.) is not allowed.
The use of the products in potentially explosive atmospheres requires additional external protection
circuitry which is not provided with the products.
In case of uncertainty or of believed errors in the documentation please immediately contact the
manufacturer (address see chapter 9). Do not use or install the products if you are in doubt. In any case
of misuse of the products, the user is solely liable for the consequences.
1.6.1 General warnings
Important note
Ensure that the power supply is disconnected from the device before working
on the device (connecting interfaces, replacing flash cards, batteries, opening
the enclosure, etc.).
Important note
The output voltage of the external power supply shall be SELV and shall be
limited power source according to clause 2.5 EN 60950-1.
Please read the safety instructions of the power supply before
installing/connecting the device.

1.6.2 EMC
Important note
This is a Class A product and not intended to be used in domestic environment.
The product may cause electromagnetic interference. Appropriate measures
must be taken.
1.6.3 Electro Static Discharge
Electronic boards are sensitive to Electro-Static Discharge (ESD). Please ensure
that the product is handled with care and only in an ESD protected environment.
Otherwise a proper operation is not guaranteed.
1.6.4 Battery
Maintenance of battery
Empty batteries may leak.
Check battery status flag and replace the battery to avoid loss of date (RTC) and
damage to the product.
Changing batteries
Danger of explosion if the battery is not correctly replaced. Replace only with
the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Never short the battery.
1.6.5 Hot surface
Attention! Hot surfaces
Make sure the device is not hot before mounting or changing the installation.
The device may be hot and may cause burns.
1.7 Life Cycle Information
1.7.1 Transportation and Storage
During transportation and storage the products must be in their original packing. The original packing
contains antistatic and shock-absorbing material. It is recommended, to keep the original packing in case
of return of the product to the factory for repair. Note that the packing is recyclable.
1.7.2 Assembly and Installation
Observe the EMI-precautions against static discharge. Carefully read the assembly and installation
documentation (see chapter 6) before unpacking the products. Make sure that you have all the necessary
items ready (including all the small parts). Follow the assembly guidelines in chapter 6 strictly.

CPC/MITX7ixY-Azzz: user documentation
DOC/MITX7ixY; V1.1
© Syslogic Datentechnik AG, Switzerland, http://www.syslogic.com 9/29
The installation procedures must be strictly observed. Note that deviations from the installation guidelines
may result in degraded operational reliability or in unfavorable EM-radiation or EM-susceptibility.
1.7.3 Operation
The operating environment must guarantee the environmental parameters (temperature, power supply,
etc.) specified in the technical specification section of the product manuals.
The main functionality of the COMPACTc7 system is defined by the application programs running on the
processor board. The application programs are not part of the delivery by Syslogic but are defined,
developed and tested by the customer or a system-integrator for each specific application. Refer to the
respective documentation for more information.
1.7.4 Maintenance and Repair
The IPC system features error- and malfunction-detection circuitry. Diagnostic information gathered is
transferred to the applications software where it can be used. In the rare case of a module hardware-
failure or malfunction, the complete system should be exchanged. The faulty system must be returned to
the factory for repair. Please use whenever possible the original packing for return of the product (EMI
and mechanical protection).
1.7.5 Disposal
At the end of the lifespan the COMPACTc7 products must be properly disposed. COMPACTc7 products
contain a multitude of elements and must be disposed like computer parts. Some of the COMPACTc7
products contain batteries which should be properly disposed.

Important Note
Maximum cable length allowed for USB connection is 3m. If longer cables are used, special
overvoltage and filtering elements must be installed to comply with the requirements of EMI/RFI
"CE"-certification. Only use high quality industrial USB devices with sufficient EMI compatibility.
Use shielded cables for maximum EMI protection.
Drawing excessive power might disturb operation.
3.2.10 Ethernet LAN Interface
The COMPACTc7 features two Gigabit Ethernet ports. The Ethernet interface drives two LED’s (yellow and
green) integrated into the RJ45 connector for status information.

3.2.11 Power supply
The processor and its peripherals are powered by a non-isolated, integrated power supply which
generates all the necessary voltages.
Connector type: PhoenixContact DFK-MC 1,5/ 4-GF-3,81
Mating connector: Weidmueller BCZ 3.81/04/180F SN SW (Ordercode 1792970000)
The mating connector can be ordered directly at your local Weidmueller distributor

Tab. 12 Power supply connector
For normal operation the external power supply has to be connected to the pins 3 (+24VDC) and 4 (GND)
of the connector.
3.2.12 Power button
To turn on the system the power has to be applied and then the power button can be pressed once. A
blue illuminated power button indicates a running system.
The function of the power button can be defined in the OS as a “normal” power button in any other PC
system.
Important Note
The COMPACTc7 system must only be operated indoors and must be connected to an indoor
power supply. Maximum cable length allowed for power supply connection is 3m. If longer cables
are used, special overvoltage and filtering elements must be installed to comply with the
requirements of EMI/RFI "CE"-certification.

Important Note
Do not operate the COMPACTc7 outside of the recommended operating conditions. Otherwise lifetime and
performance will degrade. Operating the board outside of the absolute maximum ratings may damage the
hardware.
