General safety notices relating to protection against explosion
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Safety notices when using the device according to Hazardous Locations (HazLoc)
Note the following safety notices. These relate to the entire working life of the device.
You should also read the safety notices relating to handling in the individual sections,
particularly in the sections "Installation" and "Connecting up".
• Use only approved components, for example supporting brackets, SFPs, 19 inch racks.
• Create any supports you require according the dimension drawing.
DO NOT OPEN WHEN ENERGIZED.
If you use the device under HazLoc conditions you must also keep to the following safety
notices in addition to the general safety notices for protection against explosion:
This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D or nonhazardous locations only.

2.2 Important notes on using the SCALANCE X-300 product family
The following safety notices must be adhered to when setting up and operating the device
and during all associated work such as installation, connecting up, replacing or opening the
device.
The equipment is designed for operation with Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) by a
Limited Power Source (LPS). (This does not apply to 100 V...240 V devices.)
This means that only SELV / LPS (Limited Power Source) complying with IEC 60950-1 / EN
60950-1 / VDE 0805-1 must be connected to the power supply terminals. The power supply
unit for the equipment power supply must comply with NEC Class 2, as described by the
National Electrical Code (r) (ANSI / NFPA 70).
If the equipment is connected to a redundant power supply (two separate power supplies),
both must meet these requirements.
A power source that supplies safety extra low voltage combined with a following NEC Class
2 power limiter also meets the requirements according to IEC 60950-1 / EN 60950-1 / VDE
0805-1 or NEC Class 2. A suitable power limiter is for example the redundancy module
SITOP PSE202U NEC Class 2 (article number 6EP1962-2BA00).

EXPLOSION HAZARD
SUBSTITUTION OF COMPONENTS MAY IMPAIR SUITABILITY FOR CLASS I, DIVISION
2 OR ZONE 2.
When used in hazardous environments corresponding to Class I, Division 2 or Class I,
Zone 2, the device must be installed in a cabinet or a suitable enclosure.
To comply with EC Directive 94/9 (ATEX95) or the conditions of IECEx, this enclosure must
meet the requirements of at least IP54 in compliance with EN 60529.
If the cable or conduit entry point exceeds 70 °C or the branching point of conductors
exceeds 80 °C, special precautions must be taken. If the equipment is operated in an air
ambient in excess of 50 °C - 70 °C, only use cables with admitted maximum operating
temperature of at least 80 °C.
Provisions shall be made to prevent the rated voltage from being exceeded by transient
voltage surges of more than 40%. This criterion is fulfilled, if supplies are derived from
SELV (Safety Extra-Low Voltage) only.

The SET/SELECT button is located on the top of the housing of devices of the X-300 EEC
series. On all other devices, this button is on the front panel of the housing beside the LED
display. The SET/SELECT button has several functions that are described below.
By pressing the button briefly, you change to the display mode of the LED display. For more
detailed information on this topic, refer to the section "LED display".
If you reset, all the changes you have made will be overwritten by factory defaults. Follow the
steps outlined below:
1. Turn on display mode A. Display mode A is active when the "DM" LED is not lit. If this
LED is lit or flashing, you will need to press the SET/SELECT briefly (possibly several
times) until the "DM" LED goes off. If the SELECT/SET button is not pressed for longer
than a minute, the device also turns on display mode A.
2. Hold down the SELECT/SET button for 12 seconds. If you release the button before the
12 seconds have elapsed, the reset is canceled.
Using the fault mask, you specify an individual "good status" for the connected ports and the
power supply. Deviations from this status are then displayed as errors/faults.
1. Turn on display mode A or D. Display mode A is active when the "DM" LED is not lit.
Display mode D is active when the "DM" LED flashes yellow/orange. If a different display
mode is active, you will need to press the SET/SELECT briefly (possibly several times)
until the required display mode is active.
2. Hold down the SET/SELECT button for five seconds. After three seconds, the "DM" LED
begins to flash. If you release the button before the five seconds have elapsed, the
previous fault mask will be retained.

The "F" LED (fault) provides information on the error/fault status of the device. While the
device is starting up, this LED has the following meaning:
red on Device startup not yet completed or a fault/error has occurred.
During normal operation, the "F" LED provides the following information:
- off No operating problems.
The "DM" LED (Display Mode) indicates which of the four display modes A, B, C or D is
currently active. The meaning of the L1, L2 and P1, P2, ... LEDs depends on the display
mode.
Press the SELECT/SET button to set the required display mode. If the SELECT/SET button
is not pressed for longer than a minute, the device automatically changes to display mode A.
Whereas on other devices, the "L1" and "L2" LEDs indicate information about the power, on
the SCALANCE X306-1LD FE, this is done by the "L" LED. A redundant power supply for

Response to errors
3.6 C-PLUG
The C-PLUG (configuration plug) that ships with the product is an exchangeable memory
medium for storing the configuration data of the device. The device can also be operated
without a C-PLUG.
This allows fast and uncomplicated replacement of a device. The C-PLUG is taken from the
previous device and inserted in the new device. The first time it is started up, the
replacement device has the same configuration as the previous device except for the MAC
address set by the vendor.
The data remains stored on the C-PLUG even when power is turned off. In terms of using
the C-PLUG, there are two ways of operating the device:
● With unwritten C-PLUG
● With written C-PLUG
Inserting a C-PLUG that does not contain the configuration of a compatible device type,
accidentally removing the C-PLUG or general malfunctions of the C-PLUG are signaled by
the diagnostics mechanisms of the device (LEDs, Web-based management, SNMP, CLI and
PROFINET diagnostics).
If an empty C-PLUG (factory settings or deleted with the Clean function) is inserted, all
the configuration data of the device is saved to it automatically when the device starts up.
Changes to the configuration during operation are saved without operator intervention on
the C-PLUG if this is in the "ACCEPTED" status. This depends on how you configured
your SCALANCE device. In this mode, the internal memory is neither read nor written.
This mode is active when a C-PLUG is inserted.
A device with an accepted C-PLUG inserted uses the configuration data of the C-PLUG
automatically when it starts up. Acceptance is possible only when the data was written by
a compatible device type.
