Death, serious injury or material damage may occur if an electrical plug connection is removed in a potentially explosive atmosphere during operation or if the device is subjected to hazardous knocks. Only use the device in the following environments: - Environments not subject to explosion hazards - Potentially explosive atmosphere, Zone 22 (according to ATEX 94/9/EC) Potentially explosive atmosphere, Zone 22: The ground resistance of accessible metal parts must be less than 109 ohms. When used in a potentially explosive atmosphere, Zone 22, the environment has to be designed to avoid any bunch discharge. Prevent the device from being subjected to hazardous knocks. Only operate the device in potentially explosive atmospheres if it is correctly mounted. Switch off the device before removing the plug connections.
During a write operation
the CF card may lose data or may be destroyed if it is removed or if there is a power failure. Always secure CF cards with the CF slot cover. Avoid write operations to CF cards. Reasons: - The number of write cycles possible on CF cards is limited. - A power failure during write operations will most likely lead to loss of data. Before removing the CF card in CF slot 1, ensure that no software write operations to the CF card are in progress («CF ACT» LED must not be lit). Only remove the CF card from CF slot 0 when the device is in a de-energized state. Before switching off, ensure that no software write operations to the CF card are in progress («CF ACT» LED must not be lit).
Device condensation
If the device is or was exposed to climatic changes (temperature fluctuation, air humidity) moisture can form on or in the device (device condensation). In this case, there is a risk of short-circuit. The device must not be switched on when device condensation is present. If condensation is present on the device, or if it was exposed to temperature fluctuations, it must be allowed to adjust to room temperature (do not expose the device to the direct heat of heating devices) prior to commissioning.
