Changing the setting of switches marked as 'reserved' causes the board to
malfunction.
Do not change the settings of switches marked as 'reserved' for they
might carry production-related functions.
Setting/resetting the switches during operation causes board damage.
Therefore, check and change switch settings before you install the board.
If you change the boot block flash write protection you may unintention-
ally overwrite boot flash 2.
Do not change the boot flash write protection unless it is explicitly
stated.
Data loss and board malfunction
Disabling the PCI bus 0 reset and resetting the board when data transfer
via SENTINEL is performed result in data loss and malfunction of the
board.
The board provides an RJ-45 connector. Connecting the wrong interfaces
(e.g. Ethernet and RS-485 or Ethernet and telephone) may damage the
board. Therefore:
• In order to avoid damage to the board make sure you only connect to
an Ethernet network.
• Clearly mark TPE connectors near your working area as network con-
nectors.
• Connect TPE bushing of the system to safety extra low voltages
(SELV) circuits only.
• Make sure that the length of the electric cable connected to a TPE
bushing does not exceed 100 meters.
If in doubt, ask your system administrator.
