Electrostatic sensitive devices can be labeled with an appropriate symbol.
Electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD)
When you touch electrostatic sensitive components, you can destroy them through voltages
that are far below the human perception threshold.
If you work with components that can be destroyed by electrostatic discharge, observe the
ESD Guideline (Page 103).
Siemens offers products and solutions with Industrial Security functions that support the safe
operation of equipment, solutions, machines, devices and/or networks. They are important
components in a comprehensive Industrial Security concept. As a result the products and
solutions from Siemens are constantly evolving. Siemens recommends obtaining regular
information regarding product updates.
For safe operation of Siemens products and solutions appropriate protective measures (e.g.,
cell protection concept) must be taken and each component must be integrated in a
comprehensive Industrial Security concept, which corresponds with the current state of
technology. The products of other manufacturers need to be taken into consideration if they
are also used. You can find addition information on Industrial Security under
(http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).

Notes on protecting administrator accounts
A user with administrator privileges has extensive access and manipulation options in the
system.
Therefore, ensure there are adequate safeguards for protecting the administrator accounts
to prevent unauthorized changes. To do this, use secure passwords and a standard user
account for normal operation. Other measures, such as the use of security policies, should
be applied as needed.
