Installation of the PC in the control cabinet
The built-in Panel PC CP6207-xxxx-0020 is designed for mounting in
control cabinets in machine and plant engineering applications.
The ambient conditions specified for operation must be observed (see
chapter Technical data).
Preparation of the control
cabinet
The control cabinet wall must be prepared with the required mounting
opening for the computer unit according to the PC’s dimensions (see
chapter Assembly dimensions).
Please note the following points during installation of the PC:
• Position the PC in such a way that reflections on the screen are
avoided as far as possible.
• Use the position of the screen as a guide for the correct installation
height; it should be optimally visible for the user at all times.
• The PC should not be exposed to direct sunlight.
• When the unit is in its mounting position, the ventilation openings must
not be obstructed

Proceed as follows:
1. Insert the PC at the intended control cabinet wall position and protect it
from falling out, prior to final mounting.
2. Release the clamping levers, turn the clamping levers to the side and
retighten the screws (see chapter Mounting of the Panel PC).
Earthing measures
Earthing connections dissipate interference from external power supply
cables, signal cables or cables to peripheral equipment. Establish a low
impedance connection from the earthing point on the PC housing (see
chapter Assembly dimensions) to the central earthing point on the control
cabinet wall, in which the computer is being installed.
Innovative solution for
shutting down Industrial
Industrial PCs equipped with a UPS are in actual use frequently switched
off by simply turning off the supply voltage. In this case the PC shuts down
via the battery. However, over time this reduces the service life of the
battery.
The new Beckhoff power supply technology approach addresses this
problem and now offers the user the option of switching the PC off without
the need for using the battery, thereby reducing the load on the battery.
In addition to the main switch this innovative solution uses an ON/OFF
switch for the machine. Basically, the main switch remains switched on and
provides the power supply for the PC during shutdown.
Once the PC has shut down, the PC power supply unit issues a signal to
indicate that the process is complete and that the main voltage can be
switched off. This can be done manually via a signal lamp connection or
via a contactor. With this solution the main switch generally only has to be
switched off if the control cabinet has to be opened.
In order to maintain a screen display for the Industrial PC in the event of a
power failure, the power supply unit is equipped with a UPS output for
connecting a Control Panel. This enables a power failure to be visualized
and displayed to the user. Once the PC has shut down, the UPS output is
switched off in order to avoid total discharge of the battery.
