TIP
IMPORTANT
Installation Guidelines
Follow these guidelines to make sure your product provides safe and reliable service:
• The installation site must have sufficient power.
ATTENTION: To maintain an electrically safe installation, the AC powered products must be
plugged into a grounded outlet.
• The enclosure must have sufficient space around air inlets and outlets to provide the
circulation necessary for cooling. Never allow air passages to become obstructed.
• The ambient air temperature must not exceed the maximum operating temperature.
Consider heat produced by other devices in the enclosure. You may need a user-supplied
fan, heat exchanger, or air conditioner to meet this condition.
Hot air rises. The temperature at the top of the enclosure is often higher than the temperature
in other parts of the enclosure, especially if air is not circulating.
The product can operate at a range of extremes. However, the life span of any electronic device
is shortened if you continuously operate the product at its highest, rated temperature.
• The humidity of the ambient air must not exceed specified limits and must avoid
condensation.
• In dry environments, static charges build up easily. Proper grounding of the equipment
through the AC power cord helps to reduce static discharges, which may cause shocks
and damage electronic components.
• The enclosure or cover must remain in place at all times during operation. The cover
provides protection against high voltages inside the product and inhibits
radio-frequency emissions that might interfere with other equipment.

Connect Peripherals
The illustration shows the I/O port panel of the computers. Peripheral components compatible
to each port are marked inside the callout figures.
Connect AC Power
A standard IEC 320 power cable provides power to the computer. The power supply input
accepts 120…240V AC.
Operate the computer in an industrial or control room environment, which uses some form of
power isolation from the public low-voltage mains.
ATTENTION: Connect the AC power cable to a power source with an earth ground to prevent
electrical shock. Failure to follow this war ning could result in electrical shock.
We recommend that the computer circuit has its own disconnect. Use an uninterruptible power
source (UPS) to protect against unexpected power failure or power surges.
Always shut down the operating system before removing power to minimize performance
degradation and operating system failures.

Connect DC Power
The 650R computer, catalog number 6177R-M3XPDC, is available with a DC power option
using a three-screw terminal block (+24VDC, 24RTN, GND).
The DC power option supports operation from either a safety extra-low voltage (SELV) or
protective extra-low voltage (PELV) power source. A ground bus strip is provided to let you
connect the DC common and functional ground terminals together. This is to support SELV
cases where the end user requires grounding at the computer.
The power supply is internally protected against reverse polarity.
ATTENTION: Use a Class 2/SELV isolated and ungrounded power supply as input power to the
computer. This power source provides protection so that under normal and single fault conditions,
the voltage between the conductors and Functional Earth/Protective Earth does not exceed a safe
value.
1. Secure the DC power wires to the terminal block screws.
2. Secure the ground wire to the GND terminal block screw.
3. Apply 24V DC power to the computer.
Functional Ground Screw
The pre-installed functional ground screw is not required for safety or regulatory compliance.
However, if a supplemental ground is desired, use the functional ground screw on the rear panel
of the 750R and 1450R computers, or side panel of the 650R computer.
