Quick Start Guide
Installation and initial startup procedures for the PNS include the following steps. Before installing and operating the
PNS, refer to PACSystems RX3i PROFINET Scanner Manual, GFK-2737, for detailed information.
Pre-Installation Check
Upon receiving your RX3i equipment, carefully inspect all shipping containers for damage. If any part of the system is
damaged, notify the carrier immediately. The damaged shipping container should be saved as evidence for inspection
by the carrier.
As the consignee, it is your responsibility to register a claim with the carrier for damage incurred during shipment.
However, Emerson will fully cooperate with you, should such action be necessary.
After unpacking the RX3i equipment, record all serial numbers. Serial numbers are required if you should need to
contact Customer Care during the warranty period. All shipping containers and all packing material should be saved
should it be necessary to transport or ship any part of the system.
Installing the PNS in an RX3i Backplane
1. The Scanner can be installed in slot 1 or 2 of a 7, 12, or 16-
slot RX3i Universal Backplane, or slot 6 of a 7-slot RX3i
Universal Backplane. The installation slot must match the
slot that is selected in the module's hardware
configuration.
2. RX3i rack power must be turned off. The PNS does not
support insertion/removal while power is applied to the
system (hot-swap).
3. Holding the module firmly, align the module with the
correct slot and connector.
4. Engage the module's rear pivot hook in the notch on the
top of the backplane (Arrow 1, Figure 1).
5. Swing the module down (Arrow 2, Figure 1) until the
module's connector engages the backplane's backplane
connector.
6. Visually inspect the module to be sure it is properly seated.
7. Secure the bottom of the module to the backplane using
the machine screws provided with the module (Arrow 3,
Figure 1).
