POTENTIAL FOR EXPLOSION IN HAZARDOUS LOCATION

Do not use these products in hazardous locations.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

The HMIBMP, HMIBMU, HMIBMO, HMIPCCP2B, HMIPCCU2B, HMIPCCL2B1...4, HMIPCCL2D1...4, HMIPCCL2J1...4, HMIPCCL261...4, HMIPCCL271...4, HMIPCCU26, HMIPCCU27, HMIPCCU2D, HMIPCCU2J, HMIPCCP26, HMIPCCP27, HMIPCCP2D, HMIPCCP2J, and the Display Adapter HMIDADP11 are certified for use in Class I Division 2 hazardous (classified) location (see chapter "Certifications and Standards"). Observe the following:

Warning_Color.gifWARNING

EXPLOSION HAZARD

oAlways confirm the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 and CSA C22.2 N°213 hazardous location rating of your device before installing or using it in a hazardous location.

oTo power on or power off a Magelis Industrial PC installed in a Class I, Division 2 hazardous location, you must either:

oUse a switch located outside the hazardous environment, or

oUse a switch certified for Class I, Division 1 operation inside the hazardous area.

oSubstitution of any components may impair suitability for Class I, Division 2.

oDo not connect or disconnect equipment unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous. This applies to all connections including power, ground, serial, parallel, network, and rear USB connections.

oNever use unshielded / ungrounded cables in hazardous locations.

oWhen enclosed, keep enclosure doors and openings closed at all times to avoid the accumulation of foreign matter inside the workstation.

oDo not open lid nor use the USB connectors in hazardous locations.

oDo not expose to direct sunlight or UV light source.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

EQUIPMENT DISCONNECTION OR UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION

oEnsure that power, communication, and accessory connections do not place excessive stress on the ports. Consider the vibration in the environment.

oSecurely attach power, communication, and external accessory cables to the panel or cabinet.

oUse only D-Sub 9-pin connector cables with a locking system in good condition.

oUse only commercially available USB cables.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Serial Interface Connections

This interface is used to connect the Box iPC to remote equipment, via a serial interface cable. The connector is a D-Sub 9-pin plug connector.

By using a long PLC cable to connect to the Box iPC, it is possible that the cable can be at a different electrical potential than the panel, even if both are connected to ground.

NOTE: The Box iPC can get UPS information from COM port. Only COM1 can be used to detect UPS module information (HMIYMUPSKT1). The communication module of the optional interface cannot use for UPS module; otherwise, it damages the Box iPC.

ELECTRIC SHOCK

oMake a direct connection between the ground connection screw and ground.

oDo not connect other devices to ground through the ground connection screw of this device.

oInstall all cables according to local codes and requirements. If local codes do not require grounding, follow a reliable guide such as the US National Electrical Code, Article 800.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

Any excessive weight or stress on communication cables may disconnect the equipment.

NOTE:

oAdjust the serial port configuration with DIP switch (common use for HMIBMU/HMIBMP). You can select RS-232, RS-422/485. The RS-485 port is designed with auto data flow control capability and automatically detects the data flow direction.

oThe Box iPC Optimized has not a switch to set the RS-232, RS-422/485 mode. Use the BIOS for the setting.

NOTE: To achieve Modbus through RS-485 COM port with Schneider Electric device, do not use standard Schneider Electric cable. Follow wiring diagram above to create a convenient cable depending on the remote device to connect to any peripheral interface.

NOTE: The RS-422 creates point-to-multipoint connections. In a point-to-multipoint arrangement, the node originating the data (master) can broadcast data to several (slave) nodes at once.

RS-422 can be configured as master mode or slave mode for networking. A master-slave system has one master node that issues commands to each of the slave nodes and process responses. Slave nodes do not typically transmit data without a request from the master node, and do not communicate with each other. Each slave must have a unique address so that it can be addressed independently of other nodes.
