Shielding and Grounding
For interface connections, shielded cables must always be used. This shielding must always be
grounded at both ends.
PATA Interface
Software operation for the MINICONTROL operator panels is described in the "Operator Interface
Panel User's Manual" (MATERMINAL-E).
For MINICONTROL operator panel control, the standard software package SWPLCSTD02-0
(Rev. 00.31 or higher) is available from B&R. However, the operator panel software for the Compact
Control is saved on the standard software diskette SWPLCBRC01-0.
Panel operation is done with function blocks and table parameter definitions.
