5.1 Basic information
A damaged device has unpredictable properties and states. The unintentional installation or startup
of a damaged device must be prevented. The damaged device must be marked as such and made
inaccessible, or it must be returned for repairs immediately.
Unpacking
The following activities must be performed before unpacking the device:
•
Check the packaging for visible transport damage.
•
If transport damage is noticeable, document this immediately and submit a complaint. If possible, have the
damage confirmed by the carrier/delivery service.
•
Check the contents of the shipment for completeness and damage.
•
If the contents of the packaging are incomplete, damaged or do not correspond to the order, the responsible
sales office or B&R Headquarters must be informed immediately.
•
The information in section
"Protection against electrostatic discharge" on page 7
must be observed for
unpacked devices and components.
•
Keep the original packaging for further transport.
Power supply
The following information is generally applicable and should be observed before performing any work on the device:
•
The entire power supply must be disconnected before removing any covers or components from the device
and installing or removing any accessories, hardware or cables.
•
Remove the power cable from the device and from the power supply.
•
All covers and components, accessories, hardware and cables must be installed or secured before the
device is connected to the power supply and switched on.

in or connected peripheral devices (e.g. USB hubs) are not permitted to introduce any voltage into
the device.

sary, bracing must be attached to reinforce the mounting surface.
Caution!
If the load-bearing capacity of the mounting surface is insufficient, or if the fastening material
is inadequate or incorrect, the device may fall and become damaged.
