Switching the Panel PC on and off
Before switching TPC on, please make sure the protective conductor has been well
connected. The protective conductor discharges dangerous currents, triggering a
surge protection switch. The protective conductor also discharges any interference
transmitted from external power supply cables, signal cables or cables to the I/O
devices. See Chapter 1.4 for protective conductor location and Chapter 2.3 for cabi-
net installation and earth grounding setup.
The Panel PC does not have its own mains power switch. As soon as the power sup-
ply is switched on the Panel PC is activated.
It is suggested to turn OFF system power as you plug in or pull out the memory card,
even though the CompactFlash memory is hot swappable.
Connect the power connector to the 24 VDC power lines. The power lines can either
be of some power adapter or in-house power source.
