- Temperatura de funcionament: 0 °C a 50 °C
- Humitat de funcionament: 20% a 90% HR (sense condensació)
- Temperatura d'emmagatzematge: -20 °C a 60 °C
The front panel has an IP66/NEMA4 waterproof rating, protecting it from dust and strong jets of water. However, the rear of the unit is not similarly protected and should be shielded from moisture and excessive dust.
7. Solució De Problemes
7.1 Problemes d'alimentació i pantalla
- Sense LED d'alimentació: Check the power connection. Ensure the USB cable is properly connected to a powered PC, or the RS-232 cable is correctly connected to a PLC providing 5V DC.
- Pantalla en blanc: If the Power LED is on but the display is blank, check the backlight settings in the HMI program. Adjust contrast via software if the display is faint.
- Alarm LED Flashing: Refer to your HMI program documentation for specific alarm codes or conditions that trigger the red LED. Common causes include communication errors or user-defined events.
7.2 Problemes de comunicació
- No Communication with PLC: Verify the RS-232 cable connection. Check the baud rate, data length, stop bits, and parity settings in both the HMI and PLC programs to ensure they match.
- Program Download Failure: Ensure the USB cable is securely connected and the correct virtual COM port is selected in the programming software. Check for driver installation issues on the PC.
7.3 Restabliment del dispositiu
If the unit becomes unresponsive, locate the Reset key on the back panel and press it to restart the device. This may resolve temporary software glitches.
