Powering Up the FB1200
DANGER
Do not attempt to connect power or disconnect power
from the unit in a hazardous area. Ensure the area is
non-hazardous. Failure to do so could result in an
explosion.
To start up the FB1200, apply power.
When you turn power on, the backlight on the HMI
module lights for about 5 seconds, then turns off. During
this time the database begins to initialize. After about 45
seconds the backlight on the HMI turns on again and starts
to display live data.
Periodically inspect the wiring for signs of
deterioration.
