Installation Guidelines
CRITICAL WARNING: This is legacy electronic equipment. Always disconnect from mains power before connecting or disconnecting any peripheral devices. Failure to observe proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions can result in permanent damage. This device runs an unsupported operating system; do not connect it to public or untrusted networks to prevent security vulnerabilities.
-
1
Visually inspect the Field PG chassis for any signs of shipping damage, such as cracks or dents, before applying power.
-
2
Operate the device in a clean, dry environment within standard temperature and humidity limits for electronic equipment. Avoid areas with high levels of dust, vibration, or corrosive vapors.
-
3
Use only the provided power cable or a certified equivalent rated for the region of operation (Italy). Ensure the mains outlet is properly grounded.
-
4
Upon first power-up, allow the system to boot completely. Verify that the Windows 2000 operating system and SIMATIC STEP software load without errors.
-
5
It is critical to create backups of all project files and software licenses immediately. The hard drive is a mechanical component with a finite lifespan.
