A.3  Notes on the use of third-party modules 
 
crashes during 
startup 
•  Redundant I/O addresses 
•  Redundant hardware interrupts 
and/or DMA channels 
•  Fluctuation of signal frequencies 
or levels 
•  Different pin assignment 
Check your computer configuration: 
•  If the computer configuration corresponds to the delivery 
state, contact your technical support team. 
•  If the configuration has changed, restore the factory state. To 
do this, remove the third-party modules and restart the 
device. If the error no longer occurs, the third-party module 
being used was the cause of the fault. Replace the thrid-party 
module with a Siemens module or contact the module 
supplier. 
If the device still crashes, contact your technical support team. 
•  Insufficient output of an external 
power supply, e.g. UPS 
•  Use a higher capacity power supply 
not start up or 
switches off 
immediately 
•  A counter voltage is fed into the 
device by connected or installed 
third-party components 
Clarify the following with the supplier of the component: 
•  The component can be operated without an external power 
supply. 
•  The component can be reconfigured so that it only uses the 
external power supply or that of the device.
