Color Description Green Device ready No power RESET Button Shuts down and restarts the device.
Introduction 1.3 Required Tools and Materials RS232 Serial Console Port The serial console port is for interfacing directly with the device and accessing initial management functions. For information about connecting to the device via the serial console port, refer to "Connecting to the Device (Page 17)".
Siemens also does not recommend using copper Ethernet ports to interface with devices in the field across distances that could produce high levels of ground potential rise (i.e. greater than 2500 V), during line-to-ground fault conditions.
This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Attempted service by unauthorized personnel shall render all warranties null and void. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Siemens AG could invalidate specifications, test results, and agency approvals, and void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
