 +The Unipi Patron unit is delivered with the Linux Debian operating system, that already includes the SW platform [[en: sw: 01-mervis | Mervis]]. This article assumes Unipi Patron unit is in factory settings.

 +[[en:sw:01-mervis|Mervis]] is the primary officially supported software platform for Unipi units. The basis of the Mervis platform is [[en:sw:01-mervis:01-mervis-ide|Mervis IDE]], serving as a software development environment with support for two languages defined by the **IEC 61131-3** standard (function blocks - FUPLA and structured text - ST) and [[en:sw:01-mervis:02-mervis-rt|Mervis RT]]  - runtime (RunTime), which executes the resulting compiled program deployed to the unit from the Mervis IDE. 
 +
 +Additionally, the unit within the RT also contains a web server [[en:sw:01-mervis:01-mervis-ide#mervis_hmi|Mervis HMI]], which communicates with the program and can be used to control or read data from the running program. The [[en:sw:01-mervis:03-mervis-db|Mervis DB]] service is used for data storage, in which data can be stored for several years. Remote supervision or control of a running program in the unit and collection or processing of data from Mervis DB is provided by the service [[en:sw:01-mervis:05-mervis-scada|Mervis SCADA]]. 
 +
 +All these products together form a comprehensive system suitable for interconnection, automation and supervision of all operated technologies.

 +**Attention:** \\
 +Make sure to connect the power supply last. Connection and disconnection of other interfaces should be done with power supply disconnected; otherwise, the device can be damaged.
 +</WRAP>
 +</WRAP>
 +
 +To ensure correct operation of the device, it is necessary to first connect the 24V power supply wires to the contacts as described on the device, +24V/positive contact and GND/negative contact of the detachable screw terminal block. 
 +Use the appropriate flathead screwdriver to install the power wires into the terminals. 
 +Do not exceed the maximum tightening torque specified in [[.:technical-parameters#storage_installation_and_working_conditions|technical parameters]].
 +For information on recommended supply voltage tolerance and power consumption, refer to [[.:technical-parameters#storage_installation_and_working_conditions|operating conditions]] and the product label.

 +**Warning**: \\
 +The device has appliance class I. To protect against electric shock and to comply with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), it is necessary to connect ground conductor to ground connector of the device marked on the case with symbol {{:files:earth_ground.png?nolink&16|(⏚)}}. For ground conductor connection use ring tongue and provided M4 screw with serrated lock washer.

 +
 +DIN rail on which the device is installed must be connected to the main protective earth point of the cabinet/box as well.
