Installation Guidelines

1. 1 Initial Inspection: Upon receipt, carefully inspect the Field PG and its accessories for any signs of damage that may have occurred during transit. Verify that all listed components, including power and communication cables, are present.
2. 2 Power Connection: Select the appropriate power cord for your region from the supplied set. Connect it securely to the Field PG's power adapter and a stable, grounded AC power source. It is recommended to fully charge the battery before initial field use.
3. 3 System Startup: Power on the device. During the boot process, you will be prompted to select the desired operating system (Windows 7 or Windows XP). Choose the OS required by your specific engineering software or project.
4. 4 Software Verification: Once the OS has loaded, launch the required SIMATIC software (e.g., STEP 7, WinCC) to ensure licenses are active and the software is functioning correctly. No separate installation is required for the pre-loaded suite.
5. 5 Controller Connection: Use the appropriate communication cable (e.g., MPI for S7-300/400, S5-AG for S5) to establish a connection between the Field PG and the target automation device. Ensure the cable is securely fastened at both ends before attempting to go online.
