commissioning and servicing. However, only industry-standard devices are allowed for
industrial operation.
• Peripherals are developed and marketed by individual vendors. The respective supplier
offers support for the I/O devices. Moreover, the terms of liability of the individual vendors
or suppliers apply here.

If you connect an external device with a 230 VAC power supply to the USB port without using

A USB device with too high a power load may possibly cause functional problems.
