Safety notices
WARNING
Electric shock possible - work only when the power supply is off
Opening the PG/PC and plugging or pulling the communications processor is permitted
only when the power is off.
Turn off your PG/PC and pull the power cable connector before you start the hardware
installation.
NOTICE
Note the EC directives
Components can be damaged or destroyed by electrostatic discharge. When installing,
keep to the rules for electrostatically sensitive devices (ESD).
• Pick up components and modules only by their edges. Do not touch the pins or
conductors.
• Before opening the PG/PC, make sure that you discharge any electrostatic charge from
your body. You can do this by touching metal parts on the back panel of the PG/PC
pulling the power plug.
• Make sure that you also discharge any electrostatic charge from tools you intend to use
for the work on the PG/PC.
• Do not operate the PG/PC with the housing open.
NOTICE
Firm mounting
The communications processor must sit firmly and uniformly in the slot. Check that the
module sits firmly in the slot as described in the manual accompanying your PG/PC.
Note
Oblique installation position is permitted
Some PG/PC designs require oblique installation of the communications processor. This is
permitted.

3.2 Installing hardware
CP 5612
16 Operating Instructions, 08/2016, C79000-G8976-C278-03
3.2
Installing hardware
Permitted number of communications processors in the PG/PC
The driver software supports a maximum of 2 communications processors per PG/PC, of
which a maximum of 1 communications processor may be in configured mode.
Automatic adaptation of the bus clock speed
The communications processor is designed for a bus clock speed of 66 MHz. If the
communications processor is inserted in a PCI slot with a higher bus clock speed, the bus
clock speed is adapted to the highest possible bus rate of the communications processor.
Examples:
● The PCI slot is automatically reduced to a bus clock speed of 66 MHz.
● The bus clock speed of the communications processor is automatically reduced to 33
MHz if a communications processor with a 33 MHz bus clock speed is connected.
Procedure
Note
•
First install the software
First install the software before you insert the communications processor in the slot.
•
Activated plug and play function
The plug and play function must be activated in the BIOS of your PG/PC.
Follow the steps outlined below when inserting the communications processor:
1. Turn off your PG/PC and pull the power cable connector.
2. Open the PC housing as described in the manual accompanying your PG/PC.
3. Remove the cover of a free PCI slot.
4. Remove the communications processor from its packaging.
5. Insert the communications processor in the PCI slot and secure it.
Make sure that the communications processor is correctly inserted and secured.
6. Close the PC housing as described in the manual accompanying your PG/PC.
7. Insert the power plug into the socket again and turn your PG/PC on.
The plug and play function of Windows automatically searches for a driver.
8. Follow the instructions of the Hardware Wizard of Windows.
Do not
activate the search for drivers on the Internet.

Hardware compatibility
Compatibility with other communications processors
The CP 5612 can replace the following communications processors:
● CP 5621
● CP 5611 A2
● CP 5611
Note
PCI module
Please note: The CP 5612 is a PCI card. The CP 5621, on the other hand, is a PCI
Express
card. This means that you can only replace a CP 5621 with a CP 5612 if there is a PCI slot
available on the PG/PC.
Note
If the previous CP has been removed from the PG/PC, no configuration changes need to be
made
You can adopt the configuration of the previous CP. To do this, you simply need to reload
the configuration.
Note the following:
When loading the previous configuration, the previous CP has priority
over the new
CP. As long as the previous CP is connected, its configuration cannot be
adopted by the new CP. You should therefore remove the previous CP from your PC/PG.
Procedure for replacement
When replacing a module, follow the steps described in the section "Hardware installation
(Page 15)".
