Safety Information
Notice Read these instructions carefully, and look at the equipment to becomefamiliar with the device before trying to install, operate, or maintain it. The
following special messages may appear throughout this documentation or
on the equipment to warn of potential hazards, or to call attention toinformation that clarifies or simplifies a procedure.
A lightning bolt or ANSI man symbol in a Danger or Warning safety label
on the equipment indicates an electrical hazard which, as indicated below,
can or will result in personal injury if the instructions are not followed.
The exclamation point symbol in a safety message in a bulletin indicates
potential personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages introduced by
this symbol to avoid possible injury or death.
Symbol Name
Lightning Bolt
ANSI Man
Exclamation Point
DANGERDANGERindicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, will result indeath or serious injury.
WARNINGWARNINGindicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, can result indeath or serious injury.
CAUTION
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, can result inminor or moderate injury.
CAUTIONCAUTION, used without the safety alert symbol, indicates a potentially

Qualified Personnel For the protection of personnel and equipment, a qualified person mustperform the procedures detailed in this bulletin.
A qualified person is one who has skills and knowledge related to the
construction and operation of this electrical equipment and the installation,
and has received safety training to recognize and avoid the hazards
involved. Refer to the most current release of NFPA 70E, Standard for
Electrical Safety in the Workplace, for safety training requirements.
In addition, the person must be:
Able to read, interpret, and follow the instructions and precautions in this
data bulletin and the other documentation referenced.
Able to use the required tools listed in this data bulletin in a safe and
correct manner.
Before You Begin Do not use this product on machinery lacking effective point-of-operationguarding. Lack of effective point-of-operation guarding can result in serious
injury to the operator.
.
This automation equipment and related software is used to control a variety of
industrial processes. The type or model of automation equipment suitable for
each application will vary depending on factors such as the control function
required, degree of protection required, production methods, unusualconditions, and government regulations. In some applications, more than one
processor may be required, as when backup redundancy is needed.
Only the user can be aware of all the conditions and factors present during
setup, operation, and maintenance of the machine; therefore, only the user can
determine the correct automation equipment and the related safeties and
interlocks to be used. When selecting automation and control equipment and
related software for a particular application, refer to the applicable local and
national standards and regulations. The National Safety Councils Accident
Prevention Manual (nationally recognized in the United States of America) also
provides much useful information.
In some applications, such as packaging machinery, additional operator
protection such as point-of-operation guarding must be provided. This is
necessary if the operators hands and other parts of the body are free to enterthe pinch points or other hazardous areas and serious injury can occur.
Software products by themselves cannot protect an operator from injury. For
this reason, the software cannot be substituted for, or take the place of,
point-of-operation protection.
WARNINGUNGUARDED MACHINERY CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY
Do not use this software and related automation equipment on
equipment which does not have point-of-operation protection.
Do not reach into machinery during operation.
Failure to foll ow these instructions can result in death, serious
injury, or equipment damage.

2010 Schneider Electric All Rights Reserved 5
Ensure that the appropriate safeties and mechanical/electrical interlocks
related to point-of-operation protection have been installed and are
operational before placing the equipment into service. All interlocks and
safeties related to point-of-operation protection must be coordinated with
the related automation equipment and software programming.
NOTE: Coordination of safeties and mechanical/electrical interlocks for
point-of-operation protection is outside the scope of the Function BlockLibrary, System User Guide, or other implementation referenced in this
documentation.
Start Up and Test Before using electrical control and automation equipment for regularoperation after installation, test the system to ensure the equipment is
operating correctly. Allow enough time for a complete test.
Perform all start up tests recommended in the equipment documentation.
Store all equipment documentation for future references.
Software testing must be performed in both simulated and real
environments.
Verify that the completed system is free from all short circuits and grounds,
except those grounds installed according to local regulations (according tothe National Electrical Codein the U.S.A., for instance). If high-potential
voltage testing is necessary, follow recommendations in the equipment
documentation to prevent accidental equipment damage.
Before energizing equipment:
Remove tools, meters, and debris from equipment.
Close the equipment enclosure door.
Remove ground from incoming power lines.
Perform all start up tests recommended by the manufacturer.
CAUTION
EQUIPMENT OPERATION HAZARD
Verify that all installation and set up procedures have been completed.
Before operational tests are performed, remove all blocks or othertemporary holding means used for shipment from all component
devices.
Remove tools, meters, and debris from equipment.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment
damage.

Operation and Adjustments The following precautions are from the NEMA Standards PublicationICS 7.1-1995 (English version prevails):
Regardless of the care exercised in the design and manufacture of
equipment or in the selection and rating of components, there are
hazards that can be encountered if such equipment is improperly
operated.
It is sometimes possible to misadjust the equipment and thus produce
unsatisfactory or unsafe operation. Always use the manufacturers
instructions as a guide for functional adjustments. Personnel who have
access to these adjustments should be familiar with the equipment
manufacturers instructions and the machinery used with the electrical
equipment.
Only those operational adjustments actually required by the operator
should be accessible to the operator. Access to other controls should be
restricted to prevent unauthorized changes in operating characteristics.

PanelMateIndicator
Template
The indicator templates are used as the lights and buttons of a control panel
that indicate the status of devices and control the devices (for example, by
turning them on or off). See Figure 1.
When you design or double-click on a new indicator template, a dialog boxappears with three tabs:
Indicator Attributes
Indicator States
Control Definitions
Indicator Attr ibutes Tab In the Indicator Attributes tab, you can define the indicator label, templatesize, label font, and visibility options. See Figure 2below and Figure 3on

Creating Control Definitions NOTE: In this example, there are two control definitions:
Turn ON: black text on green background, controls PLC reference
00100. See Figure 29.
Turn OFF: white text on red background, controls PLC reference
00101. See Figure 29.
When the user touches the screen, these control definitions automatically
appear on the right-hand side of the screen. When the associated button ispressed, the PanelMatesoftware sends a command that turns these
references ON, so they act as momentary contacts.

To mimic the behavior of PanelMatesoftware within Vijeo Designer, the
control definition functionality requires some additional software
development. It is recommended you use a screen capture tool similar to
Snagitto capture control definition images within the PanelMate software
screen. See Figure 30.
1. To mimic the behavior of the control definitions, use Vijeo Designers
Popup Windows.
From the Navigator pane, select Popup Windows, then right-click. In the
pop-up window that appears, select and click New Popup Window. See
Figure 31.
2. Click on the new window. Your screen should resemble the right-hand
screen in Figure 31.

PanelMatesoftware, select Back Color in the Property Inspector dialog
box. Select the dark grey icon or tweak the color bar to match the color.
Click OK. See Figure 32.
4. For ease of use, change the name of the pop-up window to
IndicatorPopUp . See Figure 32.
5. Copy and paste the images of the control definition to the Popup
