3.14.1 LMS5xx system requirements
For commissioning and operating the LMS5xx (without load on the switching outputs), the
following are required by the customer:
Data interface RS232/RS-422, Ethernet and CAN (optional, in case several LMS5xx
are connected together in a network) (see also section 6.4.4 “General conditions for
the data interfaces” on page 75)
PC with operating system Windows 2000™, Windows XP™, Windows Vista™ or Windows
7™ (see also section 7.2.1 “System requirements for SOPAS ET” on page 85)
3.14.2 Mounting requirements
The LMS5xx must be mounted as follows:
robust
as far as possible without shocks
as far as possible without vibration
protected from direct sunlight and heat sources
Mounting kits
The following mounting kits are available:
Mounting kit 1: mounting bracket for mounting at the rear on wall or machine (see
Fig. 68 on page 109)
Mounting kit 2: mounting bracket, only in conjunction with mounting bracket 1, cross-
wise adjustment possible (see Fig. 69 on page 110)
Mounting kit 3: mounting plate, only in conjunction with mounting bracket 1 and 2,
lengthwise adjustment possible (see Fig. 70 on page 111)
Mounting with the Heavy Duty mounting bracket (see Fig. 70 on page 111)
Risk of dysfunction due to overheating or dazzle!
Direct sunlight can increase in the temperature inside the LMS5xx in an inadmissible way.
Mount the LMS5xx such that it is not exposed to direct sunlight (if necessary fit canopy
or protection hood), see section 5.2.10 “Mounting the LMS5xx with protection hood/
weather protection hood” on page 59).
To avoid dazzling, do not orient the device toward reflective glass or stainless steel
surfaces. These may act as a mirror.
