3. Einrichtung
3.1. Montage
Mount the controller in a suitable enclosure that provides adequate ventilation and protection from environmental factors. Ensure sufficient space around the unit for wiring and heat dissipation. Use appropriate mounting hardware to secure the device firmly.
3.2. Stromanschluss
Connect the 24 VAC/DC power supply to the designated power terminals on the controller. Observe correct polarity for DC connections. Ensure the power source is stable and within the specified voltage Reichweite.
- Locate the power input terminals (typically marked L+/N- or similar).
- Connect the positive (+) lead of the 24 VDC supply or one AC lead to the L+ terminal.
- Connect the negative (-) lead of the 24 VDC supply or the other AC lead to the N- terminal.
- Tighten all terminal screws securely.
3.3. Eingangs-/Ausgangsverdrahtung
The POL638.70/DH1 features 21 inputs/outputs. Refer to the wiring diagram provided with the product documentation for specific terminal assignments. Connect sensors, actuators, and other peripheral devices according to your application requirements. Ensure all wiring is correctly terminated and insulated.
3.4. Erste Inbetriebnahme
After all connections are made and verified, apply power to the controller. Observe the status indicator lights. A steady green power LED typically indicates normal operation. If any error indicators illuminate, refer to the Troubleshooting section.
4. Bedienung
4.1. Programmierung
The SIEMENS POL638.70/DH1 is a programmable controller. Programming is typically performed using SIEMENS-specific software tools on a connected computer.
