Safety precautions

Installation, wiring, testing and service must be performed in accordance with all local and national electrical codes.
DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
  • Apply appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow safe electrical work practices. See NFPA 70E in the USA, CSA Z462 or applicable local standards.
  • Turn off all power supplying this device and the equipment in which it is installed before working on the device or equipment.
  • Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm that all power is off.
  • Treat communications and I/O wiring connected to multiple devices as hazardous live until determined otherwise.
  • Do not exceed the device’s ratings for maximum limits.
  • Replace all devices, doors and covers before turning on power to this equipment.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Unintended Operation
  • Do not use the software for critical control or protection applications where human or equipment safety relies on the operation of the control action.
  • Do not use the software to control time-critical functions because communication delays can occur between the time a control is initiated and when that action is applied.
  • Do not use the software to control remote equipment without securing it with an authorized access level, and without including a status object to provide feedback about the status of the control operation.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
WARNING
Inaccurate data results
  • Do not incorrectly configure the software, as this can lead to inaccurate reports and/or data results.
  • Do not base your maintenance or service actions solely on messages and information displayed by the software.
  • Do not rely solely on data displayed in the software reports to determine if the system is functioning correctly or meeting all applicable standards and requirements.
  • Do not use data displayed in the software as a substitute for proper workplace practices or equipment maintenance.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, equipment damage, or permanent loss of data.
WARNING
Potential compromise of system availability, integrity, and confidentiality
  • Change default passwords to help prevent unauthorized access to device settings and information.
  • Disable unused ports/services and default accounts, where possible, to minimize pathways for malicious attacks.
  • Place networked devices behind multiple layers of cyber defenses (such as firewalls, network segmentation, and network intrusion detection and protection).
  • Use cybersecurity best practices (for example: least privilege, separation of duties) to help prevent unauthorized exposure, loss, modification of data and logs, interruption of services, or unintended operation.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
