Installation Guidelines

1. 1 De-energize Equipment: Before installation, completely disconnect the main power supply to the control cabinet or mounting location. Verify the absence of voltage using a properly rated test instrument.
2. 2 Prepare Mounting Location: Ensure the panel cutout dimensions match the PC 670 specifications. Verify that there is adequate clearance for ventilation and cable routing behind the unit.
3. 3 Mount the Unit: Secure the Panel PC into the cutout using the provided mounting clamps. Tighten the clamps evenly to ensure a proper seal against the panel surface. Do not overtighten.
4. 4 Connect Protective Earth: Connect a dedicated protective earth (PE) conductor to the designated chassis ground terminal on the Panel PC. This connection is critical for safety and noise immunity.
5. 5 Connect Power and Peripherals: Connect the 115-230 V AC power cable. Connect any required communication cables (e.g., Ethernet, serial) and I/O devices. Ensure all connectors are fully seated and secured.
6. 6 System Power-Up: After verifying all connections, remove LOTO devices and re-energize the main power supply. Power on the Panel PC and verify correct boot-up and operation.
