Testing Mobile Panel readiness for operation

This section describes how to check the operational readiness of the Mobile Panel after you
have connected the connecting cable and, if necessary, a memory card to the Mobile Panel.
You can find a description of the PROFIsafe communication in the section
"Fail-safe operation (Page 209)".
Requirement
● A connection box compatible with the HMI device is in place and ready for operation.
See "Mobile Panel and connection box compatibility (Page 29)".
Procedure
Switching on
