5.2 Operating the capacitive multi-touch screen
You operate the capacitive multi-touch screen with one or multiple fingers. You can also
operate it using gestures with up to five fingers at a time.
Personal injury or property damage due to no ground connection
An inadequate ground connection or the lack of one may cause malfunction of the
capacitive touch screen. Functions may not work properly. This can result in personal injury
or property damage.
• Always connect the IFP to a ground conductor.
• The ground conductor from the IFP must be connected directly to ground with low
impedance (short connection, minimum conductor cross-section 4 mm
2
).
You can find additional information on connecting the earth conductor in the section
"Equipotential bonding (Page 58)".
Personal injury or property damage due to maloperation
Incorrect operation of touch devices cannot be ruled out. This can result in personal injury
or property damage.
Take the following precautions:
• Configure the plant so that safety-related functions are not operated with the touch
screen.
• Only carry out an operator action if a plant screen is shown on the IFP display.
• If you disconnect the DisplayPort/DVI connection of the IFP, then also disconnect the USB
connection of the USB cable Type B connector - Type A connector.
• Switch off the IFP for cleaning and maintenance.
