Installation manual for the E1000 series operator terminals

Foreword
The E1000 operator terminal is developed to satisfy the demands of human-
machine communication. Built-in functions such as displaying and controlling
text, dynamic indication, time channels, alarm and recipe handling are
included.

The operator terminal work, for the most part, in an object-oriented way,
making it easy to understand and use. The configuration operation of the
terminal is made in a personal computer, using the configuration tool E-
Designer. The project is then transferred and stored in the operator terminal.

The operator terminal can be connected to many types of automation

equipment, such as PLCs, servos or drives. In this manual the expression “the
controller“ is used as a general term for the connected equipment.

This manual explains how to install the operator terminal. Please refer to the
reference manual for further information.

 Safety Precautions

1 Safety Precautions
Both the installer and the owner and/or operator of the operator terminal must read
and understand this installation manual.

1.1 UL Installation
Power, input and output (I/O) wiring must be in accordance with Class 1, Division
2 wiring methods (Article 501-4 (b) of the National Electric Code, NFPA 70) and
in accordance with the authority having jurisdiction.

1.2 General
– Only qualified personnel may install or operate the operator terminal.
– The operator terminal must be installed according to the installation instructions.
– The operator terminal is designed for stationary installation on a plane surface,
where the following conditions are fulfilled:
• no high explosive risks
• no strong magnetic fields
• no direct sunlight
• no large, sudden temperature changes
– Never allow fluids, metal filings or wiring debris to enter any openings in the
operator terminal. This may cause fire or electrical shock.
– The operator terminal fulfills the requirements of article 4 of EMC directive
89/336/EEC.
– Storing the operator terminal where the temperature is lower/higher than
recommended in this manual can cause the LCD display liquid to congeal/become
isotopic.
– The LCD display liquid contains a powerful irritant. In case of skin contact, wash
immediately with plenty of water. In case of eye contact, hold the eye open, flush
with plenty of water and get medical attention.
– The supplier is not responsible for modified, altered or reconstructed equipment.
– Use only parts and accessories manufactured according to specifications of the
supplier.
– Peripheral equipment must be appropriate for the application and location.
– The figures in this manual serves an illustrative purpose. Because of the many
variables associated with any particular installation, the supplier cannot assume
responsibility for actual use based on the figures.
– The supplier neither guarantees that the operator terminal is suitable for your
particular application, nor assumes responsibility for your product design,
installation or operation.

1.3 During Use

– Keep the operator terminal clean.
– Emergency stop and other safety functions may not be controlled from the
operator terminal.
– Do not use too much force or sharp objects when touching the keys, display etc.

 Safety Precautions

1.4 Service and Maintenance

– Only qualified personnel should carry out repairs.
– The agreed warranty applies.
– Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance operations, disconnect the
equipment from the electrical supply.
– Clean the display and surrounding front cover with a soft cloth and mild
detergent.
– Replacing the battery incorrectly may result in explosion. Only use batteries
recommended by the supplier.

1.5 Dismantling and Scrapping

– The operator terminal or parts thereof shall be recycled according to local
regulations.
– The following components contain substances that might be hazardous to health
and the environment: lithium battery, electrolytic capacitor and display.

4. Connect the cables in the specified order.

A Caution
Ensure that the operator terminal and the controller system have the
same electrical grounding (reference voltage level), otherwise errors
in communication may occur.

with a cross-section of minimum 2.5 mm2.
C
Caution
- Use only shielded communication cables.
- Separate high voltage cables from signal and supply cables.

D Caution
