Basic safety measures
Only switch the PC off after
closing the software
Before the Industrial PC is switched off, software that is running must
be properly closed.
Otherwise it is possible that data on the hard disk is lost. Please read the
section Switching the Industrial PC on and off.
Switch off all parts of the equipment, then uncouple the fieldbus
Attention
Before opening the housing of the PC, and whenever the PC is being
used for purposes other than plant control, such as during functional tests
following repair, all parts of the equipment must first be switched off, after
which the Industrial PC can be uncoupled from the plant.
Pulling out the fieldbus connection plug uncouples the PC (optional).
Items of equipment that have been switched off must be secured against
being switched on again.
The Industrial PC’s power supply unit must be supplied with
100 VAC - 240 VAC.
Do not open the power supply unit while voltage is applied!
DANGER
The supply voltage must be switched off before the power supply unit
housing is opened.
Do not exchange any parts when under power
Attention
When components are being fitted or removed, the supply voltage must
be switched off.
Fitting work on the Industrial PC can result in damage:
• if metal objects such as screws or tools fall onto operating circuit
boards.
• if connecting cables internal to the PC are removed or inserted
during operation.
• if plug-in cards are removed or inserted when the PC is switched
on.
C5101 5

Transport and Unpacking
The specified storage conditions must be observed (see chapter Technical
data).
Transport
Despite the robust design of the unit, the components are sensitive to
strong vibrations and impacts. During transport, your Industrial PC should
therefore be protected from excessive mechanical stress. Therefore,
please use the original packaging.
Danger of damage to the unit
Attention
If the device is transported in cold weather or is exposed to extreme
variations in temperature, make sure that moisture (condensation) does
not form on or inside the device.
Prior to operation, the unit must be allowed to slowly adjust to room
temperature. Should condensation occur, a delay time of approximately
12 hours must be allowed before the unit is switched on.
Unpacking
Proceed as follows to unpack the unit:
1. Remove packaging.
2. Do not discard the original packaging. Keep it for future relocation.
3. Check the delivery for completeness by comparing it with your order.
4. Please keep the associated paperwork. It contains important
information for handling the unit.
5. Check the contents for visible shipping damage.
6. If you notice any shipping damage or inconsistencies between the
contents and your order, you should notify Beckhoff Service.

Installation Instructions
Installation of the PC in the control cabinet
The C5101 Industrial PC is designed for rack mounting in machine and
plant engineering applications.
The ambient conditions specified for operation must be observed (see
chapter Technical data).
Preparation of the control
cabinet
Four holes for the fixing bolts have to be provided in the control cabinet
according to the dimensions of the PC (see chapter Assembly dimensions).
Circulation of air
Note
When the unit is installed in an enclosure, adequate space for ventilation
and for opening the PC must be provided.
The clearance above and below the housing must be at least 5 cm in
order to ensure adequate ventilation of the PC.
Avoid extreme environmental conditions
Attention
Extreme environmental conditions should be avoided as far as possible.
Protect the PC from dust, moisture and heat.
The ventilation slots of the PC must not be covered.

Installation Instructions
Connecting devices
Power supply plug
Attention
The power supply plug must be withdrawn!
Please read the documentation for the external devices prior to
connecting them.
During thunderstorms, plug connector must neither be inserted nor
removed.
When disconnecting a plug connector, always handle it at the plug. Do not
pull the cable!
Connecting cables
The connections are located at the top of the Industrial PC and are
documented in the product description chapter.
When connecting the cables to the Industrial PC, proceed according to the
following sequence:
• Switch off all the devices that are to be connected.
• Disconnect all the devices that are to be connected from the power
supply.
• Connect all the cables between the Industrial PC and to the
devices that are to be connected.
• Connect all data transfer cables (if present) to the appropriate
plug-in receptacles of the data/telecommunication networks.
• Reconnect all devices to the power supply.
Check voltage rating and connect.
1. Check that the mains voltage is correct.
2. Insert the provided power supply cable into the Industrial PC's
power supply socket. Then connect it to a power socket with a
grounded earth connection.

Operating Instructions
Operating Instructions

Switching the Industrial PC on and off
Switch on The Industrial PC is switched on with the power pushbutton behind the
front flap.
Shutting down and
switching off
The Industrial PC is switched off when either of these switches is off.
Control software such as is typically used on Industrial PCs permits various
users to be given different rights. A user who may not close software may
also not switch the Industrial PC off, since data can be lost from the hard
disk by switching off while software is running.
First shut down, then switch off the PC
Attention
Attention
If the Industrial PC is switched off as the software is writing a file to the
hard disk, the file will be destroyed. Control software typically writes
something to the hard disk every few seconds, so that the probability of
causing damage by switching off while the software is running is very
high.
Switch off power supply
When you have shut down the Industrial PC, you have to switch off power
supply for at least 10 seconds before rebooting the system.
After resetting power supply the PC will start booting automatically.
First switching on and driver installation
When you switch on the Industrial PC for the first time, the pre-installed
operating system (optional) will be started. In this case, all the required
drivers for any additional, optional hardware components ordered with the
PC will already have been installed.
If the PC was ordered without operating system, you have to install the
operating system and the driver software for any auxiliary hardware
yourself. Please follow the instructions in the documentation for the
operating system and the additional devices.

Changing the filter mat
If the Industrial PC is used in an environment where the air is particularly
dirty, the fan's filter mat should be examined at regular intervals to see how
dirty it is, and should be exchanged, if necessary, for an original Beckhoff
filter mat (item number C9900-Z213, filter mat for C510x, 10 per pack).
Please also refer to chapter Changing the filter mat.
