Additional recommendations

• When using an external network environment to connect to an unauthorized terminal such as a

SCADA, HMI or to an unauthorized server may result in network security issues such as spoofing and

tampering.

• You must take sufficient measures such as restricting access to the terminal, using a terminal

equipped with a secure function, and locking the installation area by yourself.

• When constructing network infrastructure, communication failure may occur due to cable

disconnection or the influence of unauthorized network equipment.

• Take adequate measures, such as restricting physical access to network devices, by means such as

locking the installation area.

• When using devices equipped with an SD Memory Card, there is a security risk that a third party may

acquire, alter, or replace the files and data in the removable media by removing or unmounting the

media.
