B Appendix B.1 ESD guideline Definition of ESD All electronic modules are equipped with large-scale integrated ICs or components. Due to their design, these electronic elements are highly sensitive to overvoltage, and thus to any electrostatic discharge. These electronic components are therefore specially identified as ESDs.
Appendix B.1 ESD guideline Electrostatic charging CAUTION Electrostatic charging ESDs may be destroyed by voltages far below the level perceived by human beings. Voltages of this kind develop when a component or an assembly is touched by a person who is not grounded against static electricity. Usually, it is unlikely that damage to an ESD as a result of overvoltage is detected immediately but may become apparent only after a longer period of operation.
Appendix B.2 System alarms As a rule, only touch the ESD if this is unavoidable, for example for maintenance. When you touch modules, make sure that you do not touch the pins on the modules or the PCB tracks. In this way, the discharged energy cannot reach and damage the sensitive devices. Discharge electrostatic electricity from your body if you are performing measurements on an ESD. Do so by touching grounded metallic parts. Always use grounded measuring instruments. B.

Glossary "Transfer" mode An operating mode of the HMI device in which an executable project is transferred from the configuring PC to an HMI device. Access point The access point is a WLAN participant that also performs administrative functions on the network. Acknowledge Acknowledgment of an alarm confirms that it has been noted. Ad hoc mode WLAN network without access point Alarm logging Output of user-specific alarms to a printer, in parallel to their output to the HMI device screen.
Glossary Automation system Controller of the SIMATIC S7 series such as a SIMATIC S7-300 Bootloader Used to start the operating system. Automatically started when the HMI device is switched on. After the operating system has been loaded, the Loader opens. Configuration software Software used to generate projects used for the purpose of process visualization. An example of configuring software is WinCC flexible.
Glossary Fail-safe Ability of a technical system to remain in a safe state or switch to another safe state immediately after certain failures occur. Fail-safe mode See Safety mode. Fail-safe system, F system Fail-safe systems are used to control processes in which immediate shutdown results in a safe system state. This means that an immediate shutdown does not result in danger to people or the environment. F systems are used in systems requiring higher levels of safety.
Glossary HMI device image A file that can be transferred from the configuring PC to the HMI device. The HMI device image contains the operating system and elements of the runtime software required to run a project. I/O field An I/O field enables the input or output of values on the HMI device which are transferred to the PLC. Infotext An infotext is a configured information on objects within a project.
Glossary PROFINET Within the framework of Totally Integrated Automation (TIA), PROFINET represents an enhancement of the following bus systems: ● PROFIBUS DP as well-established fieldbus ● Industrial Ethernet as the communications bus for the cell level The experience gained from both systems has been and continues to be integrated in PROFINET. PROFINET as an Ethernet-based automation standard from PROFIBUS International (PROFIBUS Nutzerorganisation e.V.
Glossary Project Result of a configuration using a configuration software. The project normally contains several screens with embedded system-specific objects, basic settings and alarms. The project file of a project configured in WinCC flexible is saved under the file name extension *.hmi. You need to distinguish between a project on the configuring PC and that on an HMI device. A project may be available in more languages on the configuring PC than can be managed on the HMI device.
Glossary Safe state State of a unit in which safety is assured. In other words, the risk is acceptably low because it has been established that safety-related malfunctions do not occur or because of the safety measures taken to prevent possible safety-related malfunctions. The basic principle of the safety concept in a fail-safe system is the existence of a safe state for all process variables.
Glossary System alarm A system alarm is assigned to the "System" alarm class. A system alarm refers to internal states on the HMI device and the PLC. Tab sequence During configuration, this defines the sequence in which objects are activated on pressing the key. Tag Defined memory location to which values can be written to and read from. This can be done from the PLC or the HMI device.
