These notes are not sufficient to guarantee complete protection from electrostatic discharges! We 
recommend the use of suitable protective equipment. 
IDENTEC SOLUTIONS does not accept the return of products where the regulations concerning the ESD 
precautions and protective packaging materials were not followed. 
Safety Instructions 
The equipment can be installed in restricted areas. 
The system described in this manual is for exclusive operation of trained employees. Only qualified personnel that 
have knowledge of the potential dangers involved should perform the installation, settings, maintenance and repair 
of the units used. 
Operational Safety 
The correct and safe use of these systems assumes that operating and service personnel follow the safety 
measures described in the manual alongside the generally acceptable safety procedures. 
If there is a possibility that safe operations cannot be guaranteed, the system must be switched off, secured against 
accidental use and the service unit responsible immediately informed. 
Safety Documents 
The iPOINT X was designed, tested and supplied in perfect condition according to document EN 62368-1:2014 and 
EN60950-22 Safety Requirements. 
Condensate / Change of Temperature 
To avoid condensation in the system, the unit must be allowed to slowly adjust itself to warmer temperatures after 
removal from cold and cool environments. 
Do not open the Main housing 
The Connection Chamber can be opened for required cabling needs, but there is no need to open the main 
housing (crews from bottom side) in order to set the iPOINT X unit. The unit does not have any internal setting 
elements or displays. 
Connections / Power Supply 
Use shielded cables for the RS422 / RS 485 cables. This is the only way to achieve the prescribed EMC. 
During maintenance damage could occur if printed circuit boards or cables are connected or disconnected whilst 
the power supply is still on. Therefore, only work on the connection and the components when they are not live. 
Spare Parts 
We recommend that only personnel, original products, spare and replacement parts authorized by IDENTEC 
SOLUTIONS be used for installation, service and repair. IDENTEC SOLUTIONS does not accept any responsibility 
for materials used, work carried out or possible consequences from unauthorized third party vendors.
