Front Panel LEDs
PWR LED
When the SHIFT key is used to adjust the display settings, the LED goes out. If one of the
other four keys is also pressed, the LED flashes until the limit of the adjustment range is
reached.
The following modes are also displayed:
Green light: Indicates ready status (Power ON)
Red light: Processor fan speed too slow or stopped
Red flashing: Unit overheating
Note: The overheating error signal has priority over fan errors and is
therefore displayed if both errors occur.
Note: To ensure that the user has noticed the error signal, the red
Overheating and Fan Speed LED signals can only be reset by
restarting the computer.
CIMPLICITY ME Template for Hardware Monitoring
When using CIMPLICITY Machine Edition or CIMPLICITY HMI, an OPC driver is provided
to monitor the PC condition through system status variables. The following features can
be monitored:
CPU Fan error

TouchScreen
The operating console is provided with the analog TouchScreen with serial controller,
which is connected internally to the COM4 serial port. To be able to use the TouchScreen,
the driver software must be integrated in the relevant operating system (see
“TouchScreen Driver Installation” in chapter 7).
