3.1 General safety instructions

Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.

In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions only form one element of such a concept.

Customer is responsible to prevent unauthorized access to its plants, systems, machines and networks. Systems, machines and components should only be connected to the enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent necessary and with appropriate security measures (e.g. use of firewalls and network segmentation) in place.

Additionally, Siemens’ guidance on appropriate security measures should be taken into account. For more information about industrial security, please visit.

Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more secure. Siemens strongly recommends to apply product updates as soon as available and to always use the latest product versions. Use of product versions that are no longer supported, and failure to apply latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber threats.

To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS Feed under.

This product includes third-party software. Siemens AG only provides a warranty for updates/patches of the third-party software, if these have been distributed as part of a Siemens software update service contract or officially released by Siemens AG. Otherwise, updates/patches are undertaken at your own risk. You can find more information about our Software Update Service offer on the Internet at Software Update Service.

A user with administrator privileges has extensive access and manipulation options in the system.

Therefore, ensure there are adequate safeguards for protecting the administrator accounts to prevent unauthorized changes. To do this, use secure passwords and a standard user account for normal operation. Other measures, such as the use of security policies, should be applied as needed.

3.2 Notes on usage

According to the results of a risk analysis, certain hazard potentials associated with the unprotected machine exist. These hazards could lead to personal injury.

Avoid such hazards by taking the following precautions in accordance with the risk analysis:

• Installation of additional safety equipment on the machine or plant. In particular, the programming, parameter assignment and wiring of the inserted I/O modules must be executed in accordance with the safety performance identified by the necessary risk analysis (SIL, PL or Cat.).

• Use as intended must be validated for the device by means of a function test on the plant. These tests help you to identify programming, parameter assignment and wiring errors.

• Documentation of the test results that you can enter in the relevant safety verification documents, if necessary.

Unsuitable environmental conditions have a negative impact on device operation. Chemical substances such as cleaners or fuels may alter the color, shape and structure of the device surface, for example, the front panel.

The device may be damaged. possibly resulting in malfunctions.

For this reason, please observe the following precautions:

• Always operate the device in closed rooms. All warranties shall be void in the case of noncompliance.

• Operate the device only in accordance with the ambient conditions specified in the technical specifications.

• Protect the device against heat.

• Do not expose the device to direct sunlight or to other strong sources of light.

• Without additional safety measures, such as a supply of clean air, the device may not be

used in locations with harsh operating conditions caused by acidic vapors or gases.

60721-3-3 (pollutant class 3C2 for chemical influences, 3S2 for dust without sand).

A permanent picture with bright screen objects leads to a burn-in effect. The longer the same screen contents are displayed, the longer it will take for the burn-in effect to disappear. Screensavers (for example, "starfield simulation") for the backlit active black mode reduce the burn-in effect. The brightness of the backlighting deteriorates over the course of the screen's life cycle.

The service life of the screen and backlighting is extended by the following measures:

• Switch on the screensaver. The backlight brightness is reduced while the screensaver is

active.

• You should also reduce the backlighting.

• Observe the backlighting operating time.

At present, the manufacturing process of modern displays does not guarantee that all pixels of the display will be perfect. A small number of defective pixels in the display is therefore unavoidable. This does not present a functional problem as long as the defective pixels are not bunched in one location.

WARNING

Danger of malfunction due to improper execution of gestures on the touch screen

Notes on operation

6.2 Operating the device

If gestures are executed incorrectly on the touch screen with multi-touch function, these gestures may not be recognized or could be recognized incorrectly. The entries made are then not implemented by the device or are implemented incorrectly or in an unintended manner.

Incorrect execution of multi-touch functions can lead to errors in the operation of the plant and thus to physical injury.

Note the following when operating the touch screen with multi-touch function:

• The touch screen reacts to contact on its surface, not to pressure.

• When using a touch pen: Operate the touch screen only with a touch pen for capacitive

touch.

• Avoid unintended multiple touches, for example, with your knuckles.

Before you start to operate the device, make sure you are familiar with the multi-touch functions of the Windows operating system, as well as with the application to be used and its functions. Ensure that the gestures which the user executes on the multi-touch display are recognized by the application. It is possible that certain gestures need to be trained beforehand.

Note when operating the multi-touch screen:

● Surface contact with a diameter of about 5 to 20 mm is required for an operator action to be detected.

● An operation with gloves with a material thickness of <2 mm is detected in most cases. However, check the usefulness of the gloves you are using.

● To avoid incorrect operation, certain inputs are ignored and blocked from further entry:

– Simultaneous operation with more than 5 fingers.

– Surface contact with a diameter of > 3 cm, for example, resting the palm of the hand

on the touch screen

– As soon as the touch screen is no longer touched, input is possible again.

EWF is indispensable if HORM or compressed NTFS is used.

NOTICE

Activate only one write filter per partition - otherwise you risk data loss

6.4 Extended device functions

With the Feature Pack 2007 for Windows XP Embedded and Windows Embedded Standard 7, Microsoft introduced a second write filter, File Based Write Filter (FBWF).

In contrast to EWF, which protects partitions based on sectors, FBWF works on the file level. If FBWF is enabled, all files and folders of a partition are protected unless they are included in an exception list.

FBWF is disabled by factory default in the operating system images for SIMATIC IPC and must be enabled and configured by the user.

When you enable FBWF, the folders C:\FBWF and D:\FBWF are authorized for writing by default.

● You should prefer FBWF, because it is more flexible in its configuration and allows

immediate writing without rebooting.

EWF and FBWF are pre-installed in the SIMATIC IPC images. Ensure that only one write filter is enabled on a partition, otherwise you risk data loss.

Make sure that you only activate one write filter for each partition.
