Operator controls that are not approved may damage the Extension Unit and the PRO
device. Only install operator controls with Siemens approval in the Extension Unit, see
section "Standard installation components (Page 18)".
Procedure
Note
Place the Extension Unit on a soft surface to avoid scratching the front.
The following description is based on the standard position of the Extension Unit, which
means as views from the inside with the cable harness below, the marking ( ) above.
The following description shows the installation of an operator control using the example of
an illuminated pushbutton. The emergency stop button is installed in the same way.
1.
Remove the plate at the required mounting position with a size 4 Phillips screwdriver.
2.
Cut out the foil at the required mounting position with a sharp knife. Notice! Only cut
within the cutout. To ensure a tight fit, the foil cutout may be smaller but not larger than
the cutout for the operator control.
