Handle
Caution
! Risk of injury!
There is a danger of the unit tipping over if it is set up without extra support
and at an angle of inclination of more than 15°. This could lead to personal
injury and also damage to the unit.
If the angle of inclination is greater than 15°, you must use the extra
slide-out support in the stand.
Preparatory The PG 740 PII is easy to transport. Before transporting it, however, you
Measures should take the following measures:
1. Switch the PG 740 PII off and wait approx. 20 seconds.
2. Then, unplug all connecting cables.
3. Close the covers protecting the ports and connections on the right-hand
and left-hand casing side panels.
4. Bring the unit into an upright position.
5. Swing the keyboard up and press it against the front plate of the unit.
Make sure that the latches on the left and the right sides snap into place.
6. Use the carrying handle if you only intend transporting the unit over a
short distance.
7. If you are transporting the PG 740 PII over large distances, pack the unit
with all its accessories in the carrying bag supplied.
Caution
! Risk of mechanical damage!
Moisture or condensation in the unit can result in defects.
When transporting your PG 740 PII in cold weather when it may be exposed
to extreme variations in temperature, make sure that no moisture or
condensation can form on or in the unit.
The unit should be allowed to reach room temperature slowly before it is
started up. If condensation has formed, the unit should be left for about 12
hours (with a temperature difference of -20° C to +20° C (–4° F to +68° F))
before being switched on.
Front You can access all the important operator controls and displays from the front
or sides of the unit. The CD-ROM drive can be accessed from the underside
of the device.

Note
The power plug must be disconnected to isolate the unit completely from the
supply.
For operation in Canada and the USA, a CSA or UL-listed power supply
cable must be used.
For the United States and Canada:
In the United States and Canada the cord must be UL Listed and CSA
Labelled. The male plug is a NEMA 5-15 style.
For operation with 120 V:
Use a UL Listed, CSA Labelled Cord Set, consisting of a min. 18 AWG.
Type SVT or SJT three conductor flexible cord, max. 4.5 m (15 feet) in
length and a parallel blade grounding type attachment plug, rated 15 A, min
125 V.
For operation with 240 V (within the USA):
Use a UL Listed, CSA Labelled Cord Set, consisting of a min. 18 AWG.
Type SVT or SJT three conductor flexible cord, max. 4.5 m (15 feet) in
length and a tandem blade grounding type attachment plug, rated 15 A,
250 V.
For operation with 230 V (outside of USA):
Use a Cord Set consisting of a min 18 AWG cord and grounding type
attachment plug rated 15A, 250 V. The cord set should have the approviate
safety approvals for the country in which the equipment will be installed and
marked.
The unit is intended for operation with grounded power supply networks (TN
networks, VDE 0100 part 300 or IEC 364-3).
The unit is not intended for operation with non-grounded or
impedance-grounded systems (IT networks).
The Labeled Cord Set has to comply with the safety requirements of the
individual state.
VGA Port Please read the note referring to the operation of LC displays and external
monitors.
Note
The default setting of the display provides the simultaneous operation of a
LC display and an external monitor. The screen display is then optimized to
a format of 1024*768 pixels. Modes with a lower resolution and text modes
are expanded to this format.
To optimize the screen display for an external monitor, select “PG 740 PII
Hardware Options” under Setup and set “CRT/LCD selection: CRT
enabled”. A resolution of 1024*768 pixels with a higher refresh rate can then
be set.

Ventilating Slots The raised air outlet slots for the ventilation are located above the interface
ports. There are also ventilating slots on the underside of the base. These
slots must not be covered and blocked in any way (by carpeting, for
instance).
Caution
! Risk of overheating!
If you cover up the slots for the inlet and outlet air in any way, there is a risk
that your PG 740 PII will be damaged.
Do not place any objects over, or lay them on, the ventilating slots.
Caution
! Risk of injury!
If a display is damaged, liquid crystal may escape. Do not touch this liquid
or allow it to come into contact with your skin in any way, and do not
breathe in the vapors. If you do come into contact with the liquid, wash
those parts of the skin affected immediately with alcohol, and rinse with
plenty of water. Then consult a physician right away.
Use only a cotton cloth and a neutral cleansing agent to clean the display. Do
not use water or aggressive solvents (like alcohol or acetone, for example).
Never touch the display with hard, pointed objects.
Drive Types The PG 740 PII is equipped with a 3.5 in. floppy disk drive, a 3.5 in. hard
disk drive, and a CD-ROM drive.
Disk Drive You can store programs and data on diskettes with the disk drive and load
them from diskettes into the PG 740 PII.
Handling Diskettes The diskette is inserted in the disk drive as shown below:

Caution
! Risk of loss of data and damage to the drive!
Drives are sensitive to vibrations and shock. Any vibrations occurring during
operation can lead to the loss of data or damage to the drive.
If you intend transporting the unit, switch it off, and wait until the drive has
come to rest (about 20 seconds) before you move it.
S5 Submodules Please note the following instructions while working with S5 submodules.
Caution
! Risk of damage to submodules!
If you plug the submodule in or take it out while its processing software is
running, there is a danger that it will be damaged.
You must not take out the S5 submodule as long as its LED is lit. You cannot
work simultaneously with S5 submodules and memory cards.
Before plugging in or taking out S5 submodules you must discharge the
electrostatic charge of your body by briefly touching a grounded object.
(ESD guideline).
Memory Cards Please note the following instructions while working with memory cards.
Caution
! When inserting cards, make sure that the orientation point is facing upwards.
Risk of damage to memory cards!
You must insert the memory card into a 68-pin connector with the type label
pointing to the rear of the unit.
If you try to plug the memory card in the wrong way around, your
programming device or memory card will be damaged!
You must not take out the memory card as long as its LED is lit. You cannot
work simultaneously with S5 submodules and memory cards.
Before plugging in or taking out memory cards you must discharge the
electrostatic charge of your body by briefly touching a grounded object.
(ESD guideline).
Backup Battery A backup battery (3.6 V lithium battery) powers the hardware clock even
after the programming device is switched off.
Warning
! Risk of severe personal injury or property damage, danger of release of
harmful substances.
There may be a danger of explosion if the battery is not handled properly.
Incorrect disposal of used batteries can cause the release of harmful
substances.
Do not throw a new or discharged lithium battery into an open fire, do not
solder onto the cell container. Do not recharge the battery, do not open the
battery by force.
The correct lithium battery is available from Siemens (Order No.:
W79084-E1003-B1).
Return used batteries to the manufacturer/recycler or dispose of them
according to local regulations.
Opening the Swing the PG 740 PII into a horizontal position. The CD-ROM drive is now
Drawer on the underside of the programming device. By briefly pressing the eject
button, the drawer springs out slightly. Now pull the drawer out until it clicks
into position.
Inserting / When you first open the CD-ROM drive, you will find a transparent film
Removing CDs sheet in the drawer, to protect the drive during transport. Remove this film,
since it is no longer required. Now insert the CD in the drawer with the
labeling face up, and press it firmly down into the center of the turntable. To
remove the CD, hold it by the edges and pull upwards.
Caution
! To avoid too much pressure on the open drawer, always hold the drawer at
the front with one hand when inserting or removing a CD.
Note
The EJECT function offered by various applications for opening the
CD-ROM drawer does not work with this drive.
After the drawer has been closed, the CD is tested and the access display
light on the drive starts to flash:
– If the display flashes continually, the CD is faulty but can still be read,
– If the display flashes several times and then remains lit, the CD you have
inserted is defective and cannot be read.
