Installation Guidelines

1. 1 De-energize System: Before installation, completely de-energize the control cabinet or mounting location. Use a multimeter to verify zero energy state and apply appropriate lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures.
2. 2 Verify Mounting Location: Ensure the selected mounting surface is mechanically sound and provides adequate clearance around the PC chassis for ventilation and cable access. Do not block fan inlets or outlets.
3. 3 Secure the Chassis: Mount the IPC securely to the panel or enclosure using all provided mounting points and appropriate hardware. Verify the unit is level and stable.
4. 4 Connect Power Supply: Connect the 24 V DC power source to the IPC's power input terminals. Strictly observe correct polarity (+/-) to prevent damage. Use appropriately sized conductors for the load.
5. 5 Establish Ground Connection: Connect the chassis ground terminal to the main system protective earth (PE) bus bar using a low-impedance conductor. A reliable ground connection is critical for safety and noise immunity.
6. 6 Connect I/O and Peripherals: Connect Ethernet, PROFIBUS/MPI, USB, and serial cables as required by the application. Ensure all connectors are fully seated and secured.
7. 7 Final Checks and Power-Up: Double-check all wiring and connections. Remove all tools and foreign objects from the enclosure. Remove LOTO devices and re-energize the system according to site procedures.
