Unpacking the device
The device is delivered in a package containing the device itself, a short antenna, a
connector for power input and an I/O extension connector (only available in

ordered separately.

Remove the transport packing carefully without force.
All packaging materials are recyclable. Follow the
environmental regulations regarding the disposal of materials.
2.
Examine the delivered products to ensure that they were not damaged during
the transport. If any of the items is missing or damaged, inform the nearest
ABB office or representative. ABB should be notified immediately if there
are any discrepancies in relation to the delivery documents.
Handle the device carefully before installation on site.
9.2
Installing the device
•
Install the device horizontally on a flat surface on a desk or on a rack.
•
As the device has the GPRS option, consider the high-frequency radio waves it
uses for data transmission and choose the installation site accordingly.
•
If the device with antenna is mounted directly to the antenna connector,
avoid placing the device where nearby obstacles might disturb the radio
signal.
•
In case of metal racks or surfaces, use an external antenna with an
appropriate cable.
