Installation of the PC in the control cabinet

The built-in Panel PC CP6207-xxxx-0020  is designed for mounting in

control cabinets in machine and plant engineering applications.

The ambient conditions specified for operation must be observed (see

chapter Technical data).

Preparation of the control

cabinet

The control cabinet wall must be prepared with the required mounting

opening for the computer unit according to the PC’s dimensions (see

chapter Assembly dimensions).

Please note the following points during installation of the PC:

• Position the PC in such a way that reflections on the screen are

avoided as far as possible.

• Use the position of the screen as a guide for the correct installation

height; it should be optimally visible for the user at all times.

• The PC should not be exposed to direct sunlight.

• When the unit is in its mounting position, the ventilation openings must

not be obstructed

Earthing measures

Proceed as follows:

1. Insert the PC at the intended control cabinet wall position and protect it

from falling out, prior to final mounting.

2. Release the clamping levers, turn the clamping levers to the side and

retighten the screws (see chapter Mounting of the Panel PC).

Earthing measures

Earthing connections dissipate interference from external power supply

cables, signal cables or cables to peripheral equipment. Establish a low

impedance connection from the earthing point on the PC housing (see

chapter Assembly dimensions) to the central earthing point on the control

cabinet wall, in which the computer is being installed.

Innovative solution for

shutting down Industrial

Industrial PCs equipped with a UPS are in actual use frequently switched

off by simply turning off the supply voltage. In this case the PC shuts down

via the battery. However, over time this reduces the service life of the

battery.

The new Beckhoff power supply technology approach addresses this

problem and now offers the user the option of switching the PC off without

the need for using the battery, thereby reducing the load on the battery.

In addition to the main switch this innovative solution uses an ON/OFF

switch for the machine. Basically, the main switch remains switched on and

provides the power supply for the PC during shutdown.

Once the PC has shut down, the PC power supply unit issues a signal to

indicate that the process is complete and that the main voltage can be

switched off. This can be done manually via a signal lamp connection or

via a contactor. With this solution the main switch generally only has to be

switched off if the control cabinet has to be opened.

In order to maintain a screen display for the Industrial PC in the event of a

power failure, the power supply unit is equipped with a UPS output for

connecting a Control Panel. This enables a power failure to be visualized

and displayed to the user. Once the PC has shut down, the UPS output is

switched off in order to avoid total discharge of the battery.
