Preface Thank you for purchasing Pro-face’s PL3000 Series Graphic Logic Controller Interface (Hereafter referred to as the “PL unit”). Before operating your PL unit, be sure to read this manual to familiarize yourself with the PL unit’s operation procedures and features. NOTICE 1. Copying this manual’s contents, either in whole or in part, is prohibited without the express permission of Digital Electronics Corporation, Japan. 2.
Essential Safety Precautions All safety-related procedures stated in this document must be followed to operate the PL correctly and safely. Be sure to read this and any related documents thoroughly to understand the correct operation and functions of the PL unit. • For the Built-in Battery Unit version, see "7.2.1 Caution (page 7-7)". For detailed instruction of how to use the keypad, refer to PL3000 Series Reference Manual.
Do not use the PL as a warning device for critical alarms that can cause serious operator injury, machine damage or can halt system operation. Critical alarm indicators and their control/activator units must be designed using stand-alone hardware with redundancy and/or mechanical interlocks.
Installation Be sure all cable connectors are securely attached to the PL unit. A loose connection may cause incorrect input or output signals. Wiring Be sure to ground the PL unit’s FG wire separately from other equipment FG lines. Also, be sure to use a grounding resistance of 100Ω or less and a 2mm2 or thicker wire, or your country’s applicable standard. Otherwise, electric shock or malfunctions may result. Be sure to use only the designated torque to tighten the PL unit’s terminal block screws.
Do not operate or store the PL in locations where it can be exposed to direct sunlight, high temperatures, excessive dust, moisture or vibration. Do not operate or store the PL where chemicals evaporate, or where chemicals are present in the air. Corrosive chemicals: Acids, alkalines, liquids containing salt Flammable chemicals: Organic Solvents Do not use paint thinner or organic solvents to remove dirt or oil from the PL unit’s surface. Instead, use a soft cloth moistened with a diluted neutral detergent.
• When the same image is displayed on the PL unit’s screen for a long period, an afterimage may appear when the image is changed. This is an LCD characteristic and not a product defect. • To prevent an afterimage: * Set the PL unit’s display OFF feature when you plan to display the same screen image for a long period of time. * Change the screen image periodically and try to not display the same image for a long period of time.

6 Maintenance 1. Cleaning the Fan Filter 2. Periodic Check Points 3. Replacing the Installation Gasket 4. Replacing the Backlight 5. Replacing the Internal Battery This chapter explains cautions and inspection criteria that will ensure trouble-free use of the PL.
PL3000 Series Hardware Manual 6.1 Cleaning the Fan Filter Since excessive dirt and dust in the filter of the PL’s electric fan can potentially affect the performance of the unit, regular inspection and cleaning of the filter is strongly recommended. • The PL's fan has a lifetime. (Expected life: approx. 5 years at the ambient temperature 25oC) This lifetime may be shortened depending on the usage environment. When the fan needs to be replaced, please contact your local PL distributor immediately.
Chapter 6 Maintenance (3) Clean the filter completely. If stubborn dirt or stains are present, wash the filter with a neutral detergent. • Do not wring the filter to dry it. Filter Filter • When drying the filter, dry it without exposing it to direct sunlight. • Allow it to air dry completely before reattaching to the PL. (4) After reattaching the filter to the filter cover by hanging the filter on the fan cover’s clips, reattach the fan cover using the cover’s attachment screws.
PL3000 Series Hardware Manual 6.2 Periodic Check Points To keep your PL unit in its best condition, please inspect the following points periodically. PL Operation Environment Is the surrounding air temperature within the allowable range? 0°C to 50°C (without HDD) 5°C to 50°C (with HDD) Is the ambient humidity within the specified range? 10 to 90%RH (Not condensing, wet bulb temperature: 39°C or less. Wet bulb temperature with HDD: 29°C or less.
Chapter 6 Maintenance 6.3 Replacing the Installation Gasket The installation gasket provides protection against dust and moisture. • A gasket which has been used for a long period of time may have scratches or dirt on it, and could have lost much of its water resistance. Be sure to change the gasket at least once a year, or when scratches or dirt become visible. • The model number of the PL unit installation gaskets is described below.
PL3000 Series Hardware Manual . • The gasket must be inserted correctly into the groove for the PL’s moisture resistance to be equivalent to IP65f. • Since the gasket is flexible but not elastic, be careful not to stretch it unnecessarily, as doing so could tear the gasket. • Be sure the gasket’s seam is not inserted into any of the unit’s corners, only in the straight sections of the groove. Inserting it into a corner may lead to its eventually tearing.
