Foreword
These Operating Instructions contain all relevant information for the Manta GMP IT-xx9 devices
(SERIES 400 Open HMI - Panel PCs and SERIES 500 Thin Clients). They also contain
information on the connection and installation (etc.) of these devices.
Two devices are available with the Manta GMP device platform: the IT-479-2TX and the
IT-579-2TX, both with 61 cm display (24") and 2x 10/100/1000Base-TX Ethernet interface and
AC supply.
For the correct operation of all associated components please note, in
addition to these operating instructions, all other operating instructions
enclosed in this delivery as well as the operating instructions of the
additional equipment to be connected.

Device function
The MANTA GMP SERIES IT-479 and IT-579 Operator Stations (OS) have been developed for
installation in cleanrooms cleanliness class C according to EU-GMP and according to EHEDG.
Data is transmitted via dual Ethernet as 10/100/1000Base-TX via CAT7 across a distance of up
to 100 m.
The devices are connected to a communication system via the external serial interfaces (RS-232,
Ethernet). The USB interfaces, also external, can be used for the connection of various peripheral
devices. Furthermore, the interfaces for keyboard, mouse, video and audio signals are also
located here.
2.1
IT-4x9 (SERIES 400 Panel PC)
The IT-4x9 HMI devices are equipped with a Windows© operating system and can run any
software. They are therefore easy to operate.
The devices are fitted with powerful processors and are thus able to process even large
applications on-site. The devices have a back-up and recovery system which can be used to save
complete images and load them onto new Panel PCs without requiring specific IT skills.
2.2
IT-5x9 (SERIES 500 Thin Clients)
The IT-5x9 SERIES 500 HMI devices can be integrated into modern networks as Thin Clients or
with a KVM box via KVM-over-IP. Digital Ethernet technology is used for the transmission of data
between the KVM-over-IP box and the Thin Client device.
Up to four Thin Clients can access one KVM-over-IP box with one software license, thus cost-
effectively communicating with several PCs - for example, when monitoring the production
process and simultaneously applying Condition Monitoring.
Multi-monitoring with several on-site terminals is as easy as the application as Thin Client in a
server environment with virtual work stations.
