Equipment debugging and installation (commissioning process)

1. Transportation and unpacking

The equipment is anti vibration but not resistant to strong impacts and large temperature differences, and must be transported in its original packaging; If condensation occurs due to temperature difference, it needs to be allowed to stand for 12 hours before being powered on. After unpacking, check the goods and inspect the appearance for damage. If there are any abnormalities, immediately contact after-sales and keep the original packaging.

2. Requirements for cabinet installation

The wall thickness of the cabinet opening is 1-5mm for conventional models and 1-3mm for stainless steel panel models.

Space requirement: Reserve 5cm of ventilation space above and below the equipment to avoid overheating; Avoid strong light reflection and direct sunlight.

Installation method: Fix with a rear clamping wrench, use a 3mm hex wrench for operation, and check the sealing after installation.

3. Touch screen usage and protection

Only operate with bare hands or wearing gloves without hard particles; Optional factory protective film is available, and standard film sticking and tearing steps are provided; Brightness, screensaver, and cleaning modes can be set through the Display Control Tool.

4. Cable and plug assembly

Elaborate on the assembly and disassembly process of the 8-pin power plug and stress relief housing, and standardize the operation steps such as wire stripping, crimping, wiring, and snap fasteners.

5. Grounding specifications

Simultaneously perform protective grounding and functional grounding, with a grounding wire cross-sectional area of * * ≥ 4mm ² * *; Following the EN 60204-1 standard, the power supply is 0V and PE equipotential, and the external equipment maintains the same potential to ensure personal safety and EMC electromagnetic compatibility.

6. Wiring and power supply rules

Operation sequence: Ground first → Connect all data lines → Finally connect 24VDC power supply.

Electrical parameters: Input voltage range of 22-30VDC, equipment terminal voltage shall not be lower than 22V; maximum power supply circuit fuse 4A.

UPS configuration: Can be paired with two original factory external battery packs, C9900-U330 and C9900-U332, supporting power-off endurance and can be linked to a second monitor.

7. Power on/off specifications

It is strictly prohibited to directly cut off power during operation, which may cause data loss and premature aging of UPS batteries.

Support remote start stop of PC-ON pin: input 0V for startup and 24V for shutdown; The power status output can be linked to an external contactor, with a maximum load of 0.5A.

The new machine requires manual installation of external hardware and UPS matching drivers.

Beckhoff Device Manager (Device Management Tool)

Function: The device automatically starts when powered on, used for hardware/software diagnosis, status monitoring, remote configuration, predicting faults in advance, and reducing downtime.

Default account: username Administrator, password 1; The default password must be changed for the first startup, and it is recommended to set the BIOS password.

Startup method: Local browser can be manually invoked by entering localhost/config.

Password requirement: The length should not be less than 10 characters, combined with uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters to ensure security.

Equipment shutdown, disassembly, and scrapping

Power off and disconnection process: Normal shutdown → Cut off 24V power supply → Remove power and data cables in sequence → Finally disconnect the grounding; Operation is prohibited during thunderstorms.

Cabinet disassembly: First, loosen and reset the clamping wrench, then remove the equipment, and ensure proper fall protection throughout the process.

Scrap disposal: After dismantling the entire machine, strictly classify and recycle it according to local electronic waste regulations; Data must be cleared or destroyed before the storage medium is scrapped.
