2.3 Designated use
The operator panel of the DOP11C series are intended for the operation and diagnostics
of industrial and commercial systems.
The DOP11C series comprises only panels for fixed installation .
A suitable response to communication errors between the DOP11C and the controller
must be implemented in the controller. Additionally, suitable measures (e.g. limit
switches, position monitoring) must be implemented to ensure that no damage occurs
as a result of a communication error with DOP11C.
Do not take the operator panel into operation (i.e. start of designated operation) until you
have ensured that the local laws and guidelines are complied with. For the member
states of the European Union (EU) this means that the machine complies with EMC
Directive 2004/108/EC and the end product with Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC;
EN 60204 must be adhered to.
2.4 Non-designated use
• Do not install or operate the panels where they will be exposed to direct sunlight.
2.4.1 Safety functions
2.5 Bus systems
A bus system makes it possible to adapt frequency inverters and/or motor starters to the
particulars of the machinery within wide limits. This results in the risk that a change of
parameters that cannot be detected externally can result in unexpected, though not
uncontrolled, system behavior.
WARNING
The operator panels of the DOP11C series may not execute any safety functions with-
out higher-level safety systems.
Severe or fatal injuries.
• Use higher-level safety systems to ensure protection of equipment and personnel.
