Device Safety Considerations
Reading these Instructions
Before operating the device, read these instructions carefully and understand their safety implications. In some situations, improperly using this device may result in damage or injury. Keep this manual in a convenient location for future reference.
Note that these instructions may not cover all details or variations in equipment or cover every possible situation regarding installation, operation, or maintenance. Should problems arise that are not covered sufficiently in the text, immediately contact Customer Support for further information.
Protecting Operating Processes
A failure of this device – for whatever reason -- may leave an operating process without appropriate protection and could result in possible damage to property or injury to persons. To protect against this, you should review the need for additional backup equipment or provide alternate means of protection (such as alarm devices, output limiting, fail-safe valves, relief valves, emergency shutoffs, emergency switches, etc.). Contact Remote Automation Solutions for additional information.
Returning Equipment
If you need to return any equipment to Remote Automation Solutions, it is your responsibility to ensure that the equipment has been cleaned to safe levels, as defined and/or determined by applicable federal, state and/or local law regulations or codes. You also agree to indemnify Remote Automation Solutions and hold Remote Automation Solutions harmless from any liability or damage which Remote Automation Solutions may incur or suffer due to your failure to ensure device cleanliness.
Grounding Equipment
Ground metal enclosures and exposed metal parts of electrical instruments in accordance with OSHA rules and regulations as specified in Design Safety Standards for Electrical Systems , 29 CFR, Part 1910, Subpart S, dated: April 16, 1981 (OSHA rulings are in agreement with the National Electrical Code). You must also ground mechanical or pneumatic instruments that include electrically operated devices such as lights, switches, relays, alarms, or chart drives.
Important: Complying with the codes and regulations of authorities having jurisdiction is essential to ensuring personnel safety. The guidelines and recommendations in this manual are intended to meet or exceed applicable codes and regulations.
If differences occur between this manual and the codes and regulations of authorities having jurisdiction, those codes and regulations must take precedence.
Protecting from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
This device contains sensitive electronic components which be damaged by exposure to an ESD voltage. Depending on the magnitude and duration of the ESD, it can result in erratic operation or complete failure of the equipment. Ensure that you correctly care for and handle ESD-sensitive components.
System Training
A well-trained workforce is critical to the success of your operation. Knowing how to correctly install, configure, program, calibrate, and trouble-shoot your Emerson equipment provides your engineers and technicians with the skills and confidence to optimize your investment. Remote Automation Solutions offers a variety of ways for your personnel to acquire essential system expertise. Our full-time professional instructors can conduct classroom training at several of our corporate offices, at your site, or even at your regional Emerson office.

Removing/Replacing a Personality Module
DANGER
Ensure the RTU is in a non-hazardous area. Never open the enclosure in a hazardous area.
DANGER
EXPLOSION HAZARD: Ensure the area in which you perform this operation is non-hazardous.
Performing this operation in a hazardous area could result in an explosion.
DANGER
If replacing a CPU personality module, switch the process this RTU controls over to whatever manual/backup system you have. If replacing an I/O personality module, switch the associated
I/O to whatever manual control system you have.
1.
If you are replacing an existing personality module that is already wired with an identical personality module, and if there is no fault with the terminal block, leave wiring connected to the terminal block, and disconnect the terminal block from the personality module by gently rocking the terminal block from side to side until it pops out. Conversely, if there is a fault with the terminal block, label wires coming in so you can transfer the wires to the correct positions on the new terminal block.
Detaching the Terminal Block with Wires Still Attached
