Essential Safety Precautions

This manual includes the following cautions concerning procedures that must be followed to operate the PS-A correctly and safely. Prior to operating the PS-A, be sure to read this manual and any related materials thoroughly to understand the correct operation and functions of this unit.

Safety Icons

To allow you to use the PS-A correctly, throughout this manual, the following icons are provided next to operations requiring special attention. These icons are used to describe the following situations:

Failure to fully comply with points indicated by this symbol may result in death or serious injury.

Failure to fully comply with points indicated by this symbol may result in injury or equipment damage.

Indicates actions or procedures that should NOT be performed.

Indicates actions or procedures that MUST be performed to ensure proper operation.

To avoid the possibility of an electric shock, be sure to disconnect the power cord to the PS-A before connecting it to the main power supply.

A fire or electrical shock may occur if voltages used with the PS-A are beyond the specified range. Be sure to use only the specified voltage.

Before opening the PS-A’s protective cover, be sure to turn the unit's power OFF. This is because the PSA's internal parts carry high voltages.

To avoid fires or electrical hazards, do not modify the PS-A in any way.

Do not create touch panel switches that are used to either control or to ensure the safety of equipment and personnel. Mechanical switches, such as an emergency stop switch, a deadman (two-handed) start switch, etc., must be installed and operated via a separate control system.

Do not create touch panel switches which could possibly endanger the safety of humans and equipment. This is due to the possibility of a malfunction in the PS-A or its cable(s), causing the output of a signal that could result in a major accident. All of a system's major, safety-related switches should be designed to be operated separately from the PS-A.

After the PS-A ’s backlight burns out, unlike the PS-A’s “S t andby Mode”, the touch panel is still active. If the operator fails to notice that the backlight is burned out and touches the panel, a potentially dangerous machine miss-operation can occur. If your PS-A’s backlight suddenly turns OFF, use the following steps to determine if the backlight is actually burned out.

1) If your PS-A is not set to “Standby Mode” and the screen has gone blank, your backlight is burned out.

2) Or, if your PS-A is set to St andby Mode, but touching the screen does not cause the display to reappear, your backlight is burned out.

If metal particles, water or other types of liquids contact any of the PS-A’s internal parts, immediately turn the unit’s power OFF, unplug the power cord, and contact either your PS-A distributor or the Digital Electronics Corporation.

Read and understand Chapter 2 “Hardware Installation” thoroughly in order to select an appropriate installation location for the PS-A.

Before either plugging in or unplugging interface connector, be sure to turn the PS-A’s power OFF.

To prevent a possible explosion, do not install the PS-A in areas containing flammable gases.

The PS-A is not appropriate for use with aircraft control devices, aerospace equipment, central trunk data transmission (communication) devices, nuclear power control devices, or medical life support equipment, due to these devicesí inherent requirements of extremely high levels of safety and reliability.

When using the PS-A with transportation vehicles (trains, cars and ships), disaster and crime prevention devices, various types of safety equipment, non-life support related medical devices, etc. redundant and/ or fail-safe system designs should be used to ensure the proper degree of reliability and safety.

Do not push on the PS-A’s screen too strongly, with either your finger or with a hard object. Excessive pressure can scratch, crack or damage the screen. Also, do not use a pointed object, such as a mechanical pencil or screwdriver, to press any of the touch panel's switches, since they can damage the display .

If the screen becomes dirty or smudged, moisten a soft cloth with diluted neutral detergent, wring the cloth well, and wipe the display. Do not use thinner or organic solvents. Avoid exposing the PS-A to, or operating the PS-A in direct sunlight, high temperatures and humidity, and in areas where excessive dust and vibration will occur. Avoid using the PS-A in areas where sudden, extreme changes in temperature can occur. This may cause condensation to form inside the unit, possibly leading to an accident. To prevent the PS-A from overheating, be sure its air circulation vents are clear and clean, and keep the unit's operation area well-ventilated. Avoid operating or storing the PS-A near chemicals, or where chemicals can come into contact with the unit.

LCD Usage and Handling

When PS-A Hard Disk (HDD) data is lost:

The Digital Electronics Corporation cannot be held responsible or provide any compensation for damage(s) caused by the loss of data stored in the PS-A’s hard disk drive (HDD). It is therefore strongly suggested that all important data and software be backed up regularly to an external data backup device.

Please be aware that the Digital Electronics Corporation bears no responsibility for any damages resulting from the customer's application of this unit's hardware or software.

Since the PS-A unit’s hard disk drive (HDD) is a consumable item, i.e. it has a limited lifetime, be sure to back up its data regularly and prepare a spare Hard Disk Drive (HDD) unit.

In order to extend the lifetime of the hard disk, Pro-face recommends you set the Windows [Control panel]-[Power Management option]-[Turn off hard disks] selection to turn the hard disk off when the unit is not being operated. A setting of 5 minutes is recommended.

To prevent file data damage, be sure to shut down the PS-A's OS before turning OFF the main power.

After turning OFF the PS-A’s power, wait until the internal hard disk drive (HDD) stops spinning before turning on the power again (approx. 5 seconds).

• The PS-A’ s LCD co ntains a strong irritant. If the panel is ever cracked and the LCD’s liquid contacts your skin, be sure to wash it with running water for at least 15 minutes. If any of this liquid should enter your eye, be sure to flush your eye with running water for more than 15 minutes and see a doctor as soon as possible.

• The brightness of the LCD screen will depend on the screen's current display and the LCD’s contrast adjustment. Any brightness variations that result are normal for LCD displays.

• There are minute grid-points (Dark or Light points) on the LCD surface. These points are not defects and are a part of the PS-A unit's design.

• The displayed color will look different when viewed from an angle outside the specified view angle. This is also normal.

• When installing this unit, be sure that the screen is viewable from within the designated viewing angles. The screen image being difficult to see from outside its recommended viewing angle is normal.

• Displaying a single screen image for long periods of time can cause an afterimage to remain on the screen. To correct this, turn the unit OFF for 5 to 10 minutes, then ON again. This phenomenon is a common attribute of LCD displays, and is not a defect. To prevent this effect, you can:

1) Use the Display OFF feature; if the same image is to be displayed for a long period of time.

2) Change the screen display periodically to prevent the displaying of a single image for a long period of time.

This manual uses the following icons:

• When using a fan to cool the PS-A unit, be sure that the fan does not point directly at any of the PS-A’s disk drive units.

2.2.2 Installation Procedures

Follow the steps given below when installing the PS-A.

Attaching the Installation Gasket

Even if the your PS-A’s Installatio n Gasket is not needed to prevent water from entering the unit, the gasket also acts as a vibration absorber and should always be attached. To install it, place the PS-A face down on a soft surface and attach the gasket to the rear side of the display face, in the plastic bezel’s groove (see picture below).

• Before mounting the PS-A into a cabinet or panel, check that the installation gasket is attached to the unit.

• A gasket which has been used for a long period of time may be scratched or dirty, and may have lost much of its water resistance. Be sure to change the gasket at least once a year, or when scratches or dirt become visible.

• The corresponding gasket is CA3-WPG15-01.

Chapter 2 Hardware Installation

• Since the gasket is flexible but not elastic, be careful not to stretch it uneccessarily, as doing so could tear the gasket.

• Be sure, when pushing the gasket into the installation groove and around the corners of the PS-A, that the gasket’s seam is not placed in a corner. Placing the seam here could eventually cause th e ga ske t to tear

• Be sure to place the gasket’s flat, non-grooved side facing down.

2.3 Wiring the PS-A

2.3.1 Connecting the Power Cord

Insert the power cord into the PS-A's bottom face Power Input Terminal Block.

To avoid an electric shock, check that the PS-A's power supply is turned OFF, via a breaker, or similar unit before connecting the PS-A's power cord to the Power Input Terminal Block.

To avoid the dangers of fire, electric hazards and equipment damage, be sure to use only the specified voltage when operating the PS-A.

Since the PS-A unit has no power ON/OFF switch, be sure to attach a breaker-type switch to its power cord.

• When the FG terminal is connected, be sure the wire is grounded.

Chapter 2 Hardware Installation

Not grounding the PS-A unit will result in excess noise and vibration.

• Whenever possible, use thick wire (max. 2mm2) for PS-A power cord power terminals. Also, to reduce noise be sure to twist the wire ends.

Attaching the Power Cord

When connecting the power code, be sure to follow the procedures given below. (1) Confirm that the PS-A power code is unplugged from the power supply. (2) Loosen the screws from the middle three (3) terminals. (3) Remove the wire’s external covering and insert the wire center stand into the opening. (4) Re-attach the screws.

• The torque reguired to tighten these screw is 0.5 to 0.6N•m.

• Do not solder the wire itself.

• If the central wire’s end strands are not twisted correctly, the end strands may either short against each other, or against an electrode.

2.3.2 Power Supply Cautions

When connecting the PS-A unit’s Power Input Terminal Block, please be aware of the following:

• If voltage fluctuations are expected to vary beyond the specified range, connect a constant voltage transformer.

SEE

For information about the specified voltage, refer to

7.1 General Specifications (page 7-2)

• Use a low-noise power supply both between the lines and between the PS-A and its ground. If there is still excess noise, connect an insulating transformer (noise-prevention type).

• Be sure any constant or insulating transformer used has a capacity of 200VA or more.

2.3.3 Grounding Cautions

(a) Dedicated Ground *1

• Set up a dedicated ground when using the rear panel’s FG terminal.

PS-A

(b) Shared Ground - allowed *1

• If a dedicated ground is not possible, use a shared ground, as shown in figure.

• Inside the PS-A unit, the SG (Signal Ground) and FG (Frame Ground) terminals are connected to each other.

PS-A

Other device

• When connecting an external device to PSA with the SG terminal, ensure that no short-circuit loop is created when you set up the system.

• The grounding point must be as close to the PS-A as possible, and the grounding wires must be as short as possible. If the wires must be long, use thick, insulated wires and run them through conduits.

2.3.4 Cautions When Connecting I/O Signal Lines

• I/O signal lines must be wired separately from the power circuit cable. If the power circuit cable needs to be wired together with the input/output (I/O) signal lines for any reason, use shielded cables and ground one end of the shield to the PS-A’s FG terminal.

• To improve noise immunity, it is recommended to attach a ferrite core to the power cord.
