Danger of electric shock
Touching live parts causes severe injuries and can lead to death:
–
when the module or cover plate is not mounted on the card slots [EXT]
(CMMS)/[EXT1/EXT2] (CMMD)
–
when cables are not mounted to the plugs [X6] (CMMS)/[X6.1/X6.2] (CMMD) and

when connecting cables are disconnected when powered.
The product must be installed in a control cabinet and may only be used if all safeguard-
ing has been initiated.
Before touching live parts during maintenance, repair and cleaning work and when there
have been long service interruptions:
1. Switch off power to the electrical equipment via the mains switch and secure it
against being switched on again.
2. After switch-off, wait at least 5 minutes discharge time and check that power is
turned off before accessing the controller.
Caution
Danger of burns from hot surfaces
Dependent on the load of the motor controller, housing temperatures > 80 °C are pos-
sible in operation.
•
Protect hot surfaces from contact in operation.
•
Touch them only in a switched-off, cooled-off status.
Note
Danger from unexpected movement of the motor or axis
•
Make sure that the movement does not endanger anyone.

Based on this risk assessment, design the safety system for the entire machine,
taking into account all integrated components. This also includes the electric drives.
Bypassing of safety equipment is impermissible.
