4.1.2.1 Manufacturer identification
Manufacturer identification provides information on device-specific data such as:
• Device type
• Order number
• Serial number
These data are printed on the front or side of the device. An unlabeled Data Matrix Code is
located on the device, this can be scanned using the Siemens Industry Online Support (SIOS)
App (
https://new.siemens.com/global/en/products/software/mobile-apps/industry-online-
support.html). This allows technical or graphical data to be displayed directly.
The Data Matrix Code (DMC), which is marked with “RF Code” contains the following
communication data in encrypted form:
• Device type
• MAC address
• Installation code
This communication information is necessary for commissioning so that the devices can
connect to the 7KN Powercenter 1000 or the 7KN Powercenter 1000 can connect with a
smartphone via Bluetooth. The aforementioned information is also printed on the side of the
device in a legible manner.
The manufacturer information can also be read out from the device after commissioning via
the communication function and, displayed, for example, via the SENTRON powerconfig app.
