1.2 Process Visualization and Manipulation

“One picture is worth a thousand words” goes the familiar saying.
This is particularly true of machine and system monitoring where it is impor-
tant to provide the operator with clear and easy-to-understand information
about the state of the process.

Screens Process values and process sequences are shown by screens which can con-
tain graphics, texts and values. Process values in a system are often related
in some way. Screens show this relationship and thus represent an image of
the process.

Full graphic plant The OP permits you to represent machines and plants as full graphic
screens screens. This improves operator orientation.

Bars, curves You can show current process values (e.g., filling level and speed) as numeric
values, or symbolically as text or bars.
Curves are a particularly good way to show changeable process values (e.g.,
changes in temperature) over a period of time.

Symbolic graphics Symbolic graphics are another way to indicate process values. Symbolic
graphics are graphic elements (i.e., bit maps) which are indicated alternately
to show different process states (e.g., valve open or closed).

Process manipula- The operator can use the OP’s integrated keyboard to intervene in the process
tion sequence.
For example, you can control actuators (e.g., valves) by specifying process
values (i.e., setpoints).
Features important to operator control include ease of handling, short training
periods, and a high degree of reliability.
You can configure the structure of the OP operating environment as desired
(i.e., you can tailor operator control to your particular application).
A few features:

Free configurable function keys

Softkeys

Pop-up windows for symbolic entries

Equipment Manuel OP25, OP35, OP45

Release 04/96 1-5
Product Description

Messages Process or machine states (e.g., the current operating mode) are displayed by
the OP as plain-text event messages.
Alarm messages provide information on critical machine states.
Current measured values (e.g., temperatures, speeds, etc.) can also be in-
cluded in the text of event or alarm messages.
Event and alarm messages are stored with date and time in a message buffer.
At the same time, all event and alarm occurrences can be printed (if message
logging is switched on and a printer is connected).

Information texts Information texts can be configured. You can use them to give the operator
additional information which will help him/her to correct a malfunction.

Recipes Complete blocks of machine data can be stored as recipes on the OP.
The structure of a recipe is specified during the configuring phase. It makes
no difference whether the recipes are “real recipes” or only piece number
specifications, traversing paths or temperature progressions.
You can change or redefine recipe data directly on the OP.

Password protec- The OP offers password protection. Each operator can be assigned a differ-
tion ent password. A password level can then be used to enable or disable each
operator’s access to special operating functions. This prevents incorrect en-
tries and improves system security.

Multiple languages All messages and texts for screens can be stored in the OP in up to three dif-
ferent languages.
This permits international use even when operating personnel speak different
languages.

PG functions The “STATUS/FORCE VARIABLE” PG functions are available for testing

and trouble-shooting. They can be used on the OP to specify and change
address areas in the controller. This makes on-site troubleshooting fast even
without a programmer.

3.1 Keyboard

Overview The keyboard of the OP is equipped with two blocks of keys:

The function keys/softkeys

The system keys

Function keys/ A function key always triggers the same action in the OP or controller (i.e.,
softkeys global significance for the OP) regardless of which screen is currently open.
A few possible actions are listed below.

Open a screen

Indicate the current alarm messages

Start a hardcopy of a screen

Indicate the time window
The term softkey means that function keys can have a meaning related to the
currently open screen (i.e., local).
The function of a softkey can vary from screen to screen. When a screen is
open, a softkey’s function is shown by an icon in the margin of the monitor
screen.
The following keys can have softkey functionality:

For OP25: F1 to F14

For OP35/OP45: F1 to F20

Repeat function The repeat function activates when a key is repeatedly pressed.
(for OP45 only)

Note
Do not press several keys on the OP45 at the same time. This can cause incor-
rect entries.

4.1 The Operator Panel in Action

The OP is to control and monitor a plant which mixes and bottles various fruit
juices. Plant functions are divided roughly into the mixing and bottling sta-
tions.

Mixing station The ingredients for the juices are stored in three tanks. The ingredients are
mixed in certain proportions depending on which fruit juice is to be produced.

Bottling station After the juice is mixed, a valve is opened, and the finished fruit juice flows
into a filling tank and is then bottled. The bottles are transported on a con-
veyor belt. Before being filled, they are checked for glass breakage. After
being filled, the bottles are sealed, labelled and palletized.

Messages inform the operator of certain occurrences by displaying a text.
There are three types of messages.

Event messages indicate process states during normal operation of the sys-
tem.

Alarm messages indicate malfunctions/interruptions in the process.

System messages
In contrast to event and alarm messages which contain process-related in-
formation, system messages provide information on internal operating
states/errors of the OP.

5.1 Event and Alarm Messages

Event and alarm messages provide information on normal or critical process
states by indicating message texts. The message texts may also contain current
measured values.
Below are two examples showing the differences between event and alarm
messages.

Event messages The fruit juice plant has finished a mixing procedure. An event message in-
forms the operator of this. The event message might look something like this:

Mixing procedure finished

Juice in the mixer: 5000 l

Alarm messages The operator would now like to start the bottling procedure but has forgotten to
open the filling valve. The controller automatically stops the bottling proce-
dure and outputs an alarm message. The alarm message might look something
like this:

Bottling procedure terminated

Filling valve is closed !

Because of their urgency, alarm messages must be acknowledged to ensure that

the operator has noticed the message.
Acknowledgement can also be performed by the controller.

5.1.1 General Features

Available methods The OP offers the following ways to indicate event and alarm messages.
of indication

Message line, You can indicate a current event or alarm message in a message line or in a
message window message window.
You can configure one of the following combinations:

Indicate an event or alarm Message line

Event message The operator can look at all still queued event messages or alarm messages on
page, alarm the appropriate message page.
message page

Message buffer The OP stores all messages in a battery-buffered memory. The operator can
look at these stored messages.

Indication priori- Each message is given a priority during configuration. This priority deter-
ties mines the importance of the message.

When several messages are queued, the message with the highest priority is
indicated first.

When several, unacknowledged alarm messages are queued, either the first
(i.e., the oldest) or the last (i.e., the latest) message is indicated.
The operator can change the configured type of indication (first/last).

When several event messages with the same priority are queued, the latest
is indicated.

Equipment Manuel OP25, OP35, OP45

Release 04/96 5-3
Messages

Message states Message occurrences may assume the following states:

Arriving Marks the occurrence of the message
Departed Cause of the message no longer exists.
Acknowledged Only for alarm messages.
The operator or the controller has recognized the message
and confirmed it.
The OP acquires these message states with the precise time and outputs them
when a message page or the message buffer is indicated.

Message indicator At least one alarm message is still queued when this symbol appears on the
OP’s display.

Acknowledging Alarm messages must be acknowledged by either the operator or the controller.

After acknowledgement, the next unacknowledged message (if one exists) is

then faded in.

Acknowledgement You can combine messages into acknowledgement groups.

groups

knowledgement automatically acknowledges all other alarm messages of this
acknowledgement group.

Buffer overflow The OP stores message occurrences in a common memory area for event and
alarm messages (i.e., the so-called message buffer).
If there is only a certain amount of memory space left in the message buffer
(i.e., remaining buffer space), the OP can fade in a system message to that ef-
fect.
If there is no space left in the message buffer and new messages arrive, the OP
continues deleting message occurrences from the message buffer until a certain
remaining buffer space is available again.
The oldest message occurrences are deleted in the following order.
1. Event messages which have already departed
2. Alarm messages which have departed and have been acknowledged
3. Event messages which are queued
4. Alarm messages which are queued
A forced printout of the deleted messages is made (if overflow was configured
as on, and a printer is connected).

5.2 System Messages

System messages inform you of certain internal operating states of the OP.
The messages include everything from informational notes to serious and fatal
error messages.
System messages can be caused by the following:

Operator errors
(e.g., illegal entries)

System errors
(e.g., disturbed communication between OP and controller)

System message As soon as a certain operating state/error occurs, the OP automatically fades in
window a window containing a system message.
Example of a system message window:

Message number

i
210 Buffer overflow warning

A system message consists of a message number and a message text. The mes-
sage text can also contain internal system variables which help to localize the
cause of the error message.
Some system messages expect a confirmation from or a decision by the opera-
tor. For example:
“Format data medium? 0 Yes/ 1 No”
The entry of 0 (yes) or 1 (no) then determines what happens next.

Deselecting The system message window can be closed by pressing the cancel key or by
selecting another screen.

Error causes, The appendix of this manual contains a list of system messages including addi-
remedies tional information on the cause of the message and any system variables indi-
cated. In some cases, possible remedies are also shown.

Our fruit juice plant was introduced in section 4 of this manual. The finished
product of our fruit juice plant is a bottle of fruit juice.
The finished product (i.e., a bottle of fruit juice) is determined by the various
variables of the system.
You can combine the variables for one type of juice into a set of “processing
instructions”. This set of “instructions” is called a recipe. The individual vari-
ables are called recipe entries. Recipes are configured and cannot be changed
on the OP.

6.2 Parameter Records

Definition The parameter record is a combination of one data record each from various
recipes with a common name.
The data records of a parameter record contain all values required to set a ma-
chine or plant. For example, you can use a parameter record to load the basic
settings for machines which are identically equipped but produce different
products.

Example We will now expand our example of a fruit juice plant to include three identi-
cally equipped production lines. The recipes ORANGE, GRAPEFRUIT and
LEMON are run parallel on these production lines. Each of the recipes con-
tains a “drink” data record. These three data records make up the parameter
record called “drink”.
At the beginning of a shift, for example, each of the three production lines
must be set to produce a special drink. You can do this with just one load op-
eration.

Processing A parameter record is processed in the Data Record Processing screen in the
same manner as a data record.
The following can be performed on a parameter record.

Select

Store (set up)

Load

Delete

Selection Parameter record must be selected as the recipe name in the Recipe: symbolic
field.

Note
When parameter record” is selected as the recipe, all data records of all
recipes are indicated after the SELECT softkey is pressed in the data record
selection window.
Parameter records (data records which exist more than once with the same
name) are identified with an asterisk (*) preceding the name.

Recipes

Saving (setting up) There are two ways to set up (i.e., to save on data medium) a parameter record
in the Data Record Processing screen.
a) Save a data record for each recipe.
1. Select Parameter Record as recipe.
2. Specify data record name and data medium.
3. Save parameter record the same as a data record.
b) Store a data record individually for recipe selected.
1. Select recipe name.
2. Specify data record name and data medium.
3. Save data record.
4. Repeat steps 1 and 3 for each data record.

Load All data records with the selected name on the data medium are loaded to the
OP, and then to the controller.
Use the procedure described in section 6.1.1.

Note
Depending on the scope of the recipes, it may require a relatively long period
of time to transfer a parameter record to the controller. For this reason, a pa-
rameter record should only contain those recipes which are absolutely neces-
sary.

Delete Complete parameter record:

Use procedure described in section 6.1.1.
Select Parameter Record as the recipe name.

Part of a parameter record:

Delete the desired data record individually from the selected
recipe.

Caution
! With the SIMATIC S5, compression of the internal program memory on the
PLC (PU ”Compress” function, integrated COMPR FB) is not allowed if an
OP is connected. During compression, the absolute addresses of the blocks are
modified in the program memory. Since an OP reads the addresses only during
start-up, it does not detect the change of address and accesses wrong memory
areas.
If compression cannot be avoided during routine operation, switch off your
OP before compression.

DEFPAD.EXE for compiling the configuration file
TASTDRV.EXE for downloading the compiled configuration file to the
keyboard controller
TSCAN.EXE for retrieving the key codes
OP45_FUN.DEF File with example configuration for the function keyboard
OP45_FUN.PAD compiled example file for the function keyboard
OP45_SYS.DEF file with example configuration for the system keyboard
OP45_SYS.PAD compiled example file for the system keyboard

Creating the confi- Under MS-DOS, you create a configuration file containing the key defini-
guration file tions for every keyboard that you wish to program (system and/or function
keyboard(s)).
The key definition includes the key code and the key characteristic – for ex-
ample, auto-repeat. The key code is discontinued on pressing or releasing the
key.

Definitions The file contains the following definitions:

PADTYPE: ”1” for OP45

KEYPAD: ”keypad_id”
Keypad id =0 for system keyboard
=1 for function keyboard

ALPHA ”alpha level”: ”alpha key”, ”alpha led” [,”alpha flags”]
alpha level = 1 or 2
alpha key = number of the key that enables the ALPHA level.
alpha led = 0 signifies that no LEDs are on.
Number of the LED which is required to go on when the

Operating Modes

12.1 Normal Operation, Loop-Through Operation and Transfer Mode

Normal operation, This is the standard operating mode for unrestricted manipulation and visual-
online ization of the processes.
The OP is connected to the controller and exchanges data with it.

Normal operation, Communication with the controller does not take place in this operating mode.
offline
Process manipulation and visualization are not possible. Entries can still be
made on the OP.

Loop-through The is a special form of normal operation. A programmer or a second OP can

operation be operated on the OP during loop-through operation.
(OP25/35 only)

Note
Loop-through operation requires the AS 511 protocol be used to link the OP
with the controller.

The following restrictions apply to loop-through operation.

No message to the OP when a controller failure occurs

Longer reaction times (drop in performance)

Communication of the OP with the controller is interrupted during “status
processing running” on the PG. Entires cannot be made on the OP during
this time. The OP continues on automatically afterwards without a new
start.

Transfer mode Configuration data can be downloaded from the PC/PG to the OP in transfer
mode.
Entries cannot be made on the OP in this operating mode.

MPI transfer If MPI transfer is configured, configuration data for the SIMATIC S7 can be
(OP25/35 only) transferred to the OP via an MPI link.

12.2 Setting/Changing the Operation Mode

Overview You can set/change the operating mode of the OP either on the OP or via a job
from the controller.
The current operating mode is stored by the OP and cannot be lost during a
power failure. After the power is switched on, the OP returns to the operating
mode which was set last.

During operation Setting/changing the operating mode can be performed in the System Settings
standard screen, for example.

During startup You can use key combinations during OP startup6 to set the operating modes
shown below.

12.3 DOS Operation with the OP45

Operating states of The OP45 can be operated with two different operating systems. For this, the
OP45 hard disk is divided into two partitions:

RMOS partition: the OP45 operates during normal operation as an operator
panel.

DOS partition: the OP45 operates as a PC/AT-compatible computer on
which DOS/Windows applications can be run.

OP45 as configura- The primary advantage of DOS operation is the fact that configuration via Pro-
tion computer Tool can be performed on the OP45. This makes the OP both the configuration
computer and destination computer to which the configuration is transferred
(self-configuration).

Starting DOS To access DOS operating mode, proceed as follows:

Exiting During installation of the OP45 software, the program BOOT.EXE is stored in
DOS operation the catalog OP45TOOL.
This program is used to change from DOS operation to normal operation of the
OP45.
Proceed as follows:
1. Exit all DOS/Windows application programs.
2. Change to the OP45TOOL catalog.
3. Enter:

Storing and Loading Data 13
Overview For saving your configuration data, the data records of recipes and to transfer
the firmware, the operator panel has been equipped either with an internal flash
memory, a module slot, a floppy disk drive or a hard disk drive.
Descriptions are provided on the next few pages, explaining

How you store data on the various data media.

The settings you have to perform.

The points you have to bear in mind.
Table 13-1 provides an overview of the storage media available for the diffe-
rent operating panels (OP25/35/45).

Storing and Loading Data

13.1 Storage Principle and Storage Media (Data Media)

Type of data Depending on their association, data are organized into:

Configuration data

Firmware data

Recipe data.

Storage principle Data can be meaningfully stored only in the following combinations:

Firmware and configuration and recipe data records.

Firmware and configuration7.

Recipe data.

Internal flash me- The default storage medium in the OP25/35 is the internal flash memory ha-
mory ving a storage capacity of 1 Mbyte on the OP25 and 2 Mbytes on the OP35.
You can store all kinds of data on the flash memory – configuration, firmware
and recipe data.

Memory module With ProTool 2.0 or higher, you can also use memory modules on the
OP25/35. If you intend using a memory module, you must first load version
2.0 of the firmware onto the OP (refer to ProTool Readme file).

Caution
! Jeida/PCMCIA modules containing stored configurations can be used only on
OPs of the corresponding type. A system crash will result if the modules are
inserted in other types of OP.

Jeida/PCMCIA The memory modules use the Jeida/PCMCIA8standard, which defines, among
standard other things, the storage format for the data, data organization and system spe-
cifications.

 Storing and Loading Data

Benefits Compared to the internal flash memory, the Jeida/PCMCIA module features
the following benefits:

The Jeida/PCMCIA module is a portable storage medium; for example,
recipe data can be ported from one OP to another.

Configurations can be run directly from the module, since the OP detects
whether a module has been inserted and, in this instance, first accesses the
module and then the internal flash memory.

A storage capacity of up to 16 Mbytes means that there is space for large
configurations or a large number of recipe data records.

Distribution of sto- The configuration and the firmware must always be stored on the same storage
red data medium. You should not store recipe data on different storage media.
The following table shows you a few ways in which you can store data:

Store Data Type On Medium

Configuration and firmware Module
Recipe data records Flash
Configuration and firmware Flash
Recipe data records Module
Configuration and firmware and recipe data records Flash or module
Recipe data records Floppy disk

3.5” floppy disk The OP35 can be supplied as an option with a 3.5” floppy disk drive. By de-
drive (OP35/45) fault, the OP45 is equipped with a floppy disk drive.

Note
You can store only recipe data records on a floppy disk.

Benefits If you frequently require or have to load new or modified data records on the
system but the configuration remains unchanged, the 3.5” floppy disk drive is a
convenient and advantageous solution, since it is accessible from the front of
the OP35.

Hard disk drive The hard disk of the OP45 is divided into two partitions for the two operating
(OP45 only) systems RMOS and DOS, so that the OP45 can be operated as an OP or a PC.

Benefits In this way you have the option, if you connect an additional external keyboard
and a mouse, of performing the configuration directly on the OP45.

2. Start the Restore function with the function key or soft key.
The recipe data records in the internal flash memory are now overwritten
with the data records stored on the module.
3. Remove the memory module.

Note
Recipe data records stored with Backup on the Jeida/PCMCIA module have to
be transferred first with Restore to the internal flash memory before they can
be edited.
Recipe data records which have been created directly on the Jeida/PCMCIA
module – for example, by means of a standard screen – cannot be uploaded
with Restore into the internal flash memory.

Restore firmware/ To restore a backup of the firmware or configuration to the OP, proceed as fol-
configuration lows:
1. Insert the memory module containing the firmware or configuration in the

Special features Using an external MF2 keyboard with the OP45:

The NUM Lock key of the external keyboard is operational although the
corresponding LED is always on when a switch is made.

If you have activated the NUM Lock key, you will have to switch back by
pressing cursor control again before disconnecting the external keyboard.
If you do not do this, the OP keys will not function correctly (e.g., pressing
the cursor key will give you the number “2”).
How to fix keys which do not function correctly:
Method A:
Connect an external keyboard to the OP, and then press the NUM Lock key.
Disconnect the external keyboard again.
Method B:
– OP45 is in normal operating mode.
Perform a system conclusion (use the numeric keys for the cursor con-
trol). Then switch the OP off and on again with the key lock switch.
– OP45 is in DOS operating mode.
Press CTRL + ALT + DEL to reset the OP.

System Messages

Message Cause/Remedy
040 The OP is not able to establish a connection to the controller.
Possible causes can be:

The connection cable between OP and controller is not plugged in.

Free ASCII protocol (FAP):
The character delay time may be configured too short.
041, 044 The connection to the controller is faulty.
Possible causes:

Fault in the transmission route (e.g. connection cable defective)

Interface parameters set incorrectly on the OP or on the coupling partner
210, 212 See no. 7xx
250 Impossible to switch to desired OP operating mode via job
This message can occur, for example, when an attempt is made to switch to loop-
through operation during communication via FAP.
252 OP recipe functions cannot be executed simultaneously.
Two examples of situations in which message 252 occurs:

The selected function is already active (e.g., is being used in the background by the
controller).

You attempt to transfer or delete a data record while a data record is being selected.
256 Not enough free system memory space to execute the selected function
⇒ Select the function again.
If the message appears again anyway, “simplify” the configuration of the screen caus-
ing the problem (i.e., use fewer screen elements/functions). Examples:

Move the function causing the message to another screen.

Do not use curves in the screen together with this function.
257 A data record was not stored with the recipe version which is currently loaded.
You must enter the old version in the configuration of the recipe if you want to con-
tinue using these data records.
The assignment of the values of a data record is specified by the recipe structure.
An “old” data record may be interpreted incorrectly if the structure was changed in a
new configuration.
259 The transfer of a data record to the controller must be performed within a certain
amount of time. This time has been exceeded.
Possible causes:

The controller (user program) did not acknowledge receipt of the data record.

The data record is very long.
The data record is transferred in its entirety although the time was exceeded.
260 Operating mode of the controller (e.g., manual operation, automatic, STOP) does not
correspond to the configuration.
261 The data record can no longer be used since the data are no longer reliable.
306 See no. 7xx.
340 Entries cannot be made on the OP while status processing is running on the PG.

Equipment Manuel OP25, OP35, OP45

D-2 Release 04/96
 System Messages

Message Cause/Remedy
385/386 This message is indicated until one of the following happens.

The data record is transferred.

The data record is acknowledged by the controller (only for transfer to controller).
During the transmission (message is indicated), no further entries can be made on the
OP.
500 to 505 The controller is temporarily overloaded, or more than 1.5 seconds have passed since
the standard function block was last called.
506 The controller has sent too many “fetch message area” jobs with the same block num-
ber within a certain period of time (i.e., the OP is overloaded).
507 The controller (user program) did not acknowledge the recipe within 10 seconds.
510 The controller acknowledged the recipe as faulty.
This error can occur, for example, when a process link to a nonexisting DB is config-
ured in a recipe.
541 to 550 The specified variable does not exist in the controller.
613 The specified data block with DB no. (starting DW and end DW) does not exist in the
controller or is too short.
(Values in parentheses: First data word, last data word)
645, 649 See no. 7xx.
670 Too many variables were requested at the same time.
Remedy: – Configure basic clock pulse longer.
– Configure fewer variables in the screen.
681 The connection between OP and controller is faulty.
The interface parameters may be set incorrectly.
682 Configure the indicated screen with fewer process links.
7xx Proceed in steps as shown below when one of these errors occurs.
a) – Switch the voltage supply of the OP off and on again.
– Perform a new start of the controller.
b) – Switch to transfer mode during the OP startup
(press + simultaneously).
ESC
– Transfer configuration again.
– Perform a new start of the controller.
c) Contact your nearest Siemens office if the error continues to
occur. Be sure to give the message number and any variables in
the message text.

ESD Guidelines E
What does ESD Almost all modern modules are equipped with highly integrated blocks or
mean? components which use MOS technology. This technology makes the elec-
tronic components very sensitive to overvoltages and electrostatic discharges.
The German abbreviation for such modules is:
“EGB”: Elektrostatisch Gefährdeten Bauelemente
Next to this abbreviation you will often find the common international abbrevi-
ation:
“ESD”: Electrostatic Sensitive Device
When it appears on signs on cabinets, module racks or packaging, the symbol
below indicates that the module is sensitive to touch since it contains electros-
tatic sensitive components.

ESDs can be destroyed by voltages and energy far below those perceived by
human beings. Such voltages are created just by touching a component or mo-
dule if the person has not discharged himself/herself electrostatically. In most
cases, components subjected to such overvoltages cannot be identified immedi-
ately as faulty since they may not malfunction until they have been in opera-
tion for a longer period of time.

Important precau- Since most plastics have a strong tendency to charge themselves, it is impera-
tions against static tive that they be kept away from sensitive components.
charging
Make sure that workers, workplace and packaging are well grounded when
electrostatic sensitive components are in the vicinity.

Equipment Manuel OP25, OP35, OP45

Release 04/96 E-1
ESD Guidelines

Handling ESD Never touch electronic modules unless the work required makes this unavoid-
modules able. Never under any circumstances touch component pins or printed circuits
when handling PCBs.
Components should not be touched unless

you are continuously grounded with an ESD bracelet

you are wearing ESD shoes or shoes with ESD protective grounding strips
and are walking on ESD flooring.
Before touching an electronic module, you must discharge your own body first.
The easiest way to accomplish this is to touch a conductive, grounded object
(e.g., the bare metal surfaces of switching cabinets, water pipes, etc.) immedi-
ately before touching the module.
Never allow modules to come in contact with chargeable and highly insulating
materials (e.g., plastic foil, insulating tabletops, and synthetic fiber clothing).
Always place modules on conductive surfaces (e.g., tables with ESD covering,
conductive ESD foam, ESD bags or ESD shipping containers).
Keep modules at least 10 cm away from CRTs, monitors and television sets.

Measuring and mo- Measurements may not be performed on the modules unless
difying ESD mod-

the measuring device is grounded (e.g., via a protective conductor) or
ules

the measuring head is briefly discharged (e.g., by touching the bare metal
surface of the controller housing) when using a potential-free measuring
device.
Always use a grounded soldering iron for soldering work.

Shipping ESD Always store or ship modules and components in conductive packaging (e.g.,
modules metallized plastic boxes and metal containers).
If packaging is not conductive, the modules must first be wrapped in conduc-
tive material. Examples of wrapping materials which can be used include con-
ductive foam rubber, ESD bags, household aluminum foil or paper. Never un-
der any circumstances use plastic bags or foils.
When packing modules equipped with built-in batteries, make sure that the
conductive packaging does not touch or short circuit the battery connections.
If necessary, cover the connections with insulating tape or material beforehand.
