Please save this manual to make it accessible when required and always forward it to the end user.

[Design Precautions]

WARNING

●When controlling a running programmable controller (data modification) by connecting a peripheral

to a CPU module or connecting a personal computer to an intelligent/special function module, create

an interlock circuit on the sequence program so that the whole system will operate safely all the time.

Also, before performing other controls (e.g. program modification, operating status change (status

control)), read this manual carefully and ensure the safety.

Especially, in the control from an external device to a programmable controller in a remote location,

some programmable-controller-side problems cannot be resolved immediately due to a data

communication failure.

To prevent this, establish corrective procedures for communication failure between the external

device and the programmable controller CPU, as well as creating an interlock circuit on the

sequence program.

●In the case of a data link error, the operation status of a faulty station is as shown below. Using the

communication status information, create an interlock circuit on the sequence program for the

system to operate safely.

Incorrect output or malfunction can lead to an accident.

(1) All of general-purpose inputs from this module turn OFF.

(2) All of general-purpose outputs from this module turn OFF.

●Depending on the module failure, inputs and outputs may turn ON or OFF incorrectly.

For I/O signals that may cause a serious accident, provide an external monitoring circuit.

WARNING

CAUTION

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions,

resulting in death or severe injury.

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions,

resulting in minor or moderate injury or property damage.

A- 2

[Installation Precautions]

CAUTION

●Do not bunch the control wires or communication cables with the main circuit or power wires, or

install them close to each other.

They should be installed 100 mm (3.94 inch) or more from each other.

Not doing so could result in noise that would cause erroneous operation.

●Always use the data link terminal block for connection of a CC-Link dedicated cable to a master

module.

Care must be taken because, if the cable is incorrectly inserted into the general-purpose I/O terminal

block instead of the data link terminal block, the module will break down.

CAUTION

●Use the programmable controller in an environment that meets the general specifications given in

this manual.

Using this programmable controller in an environment outside the range of the general specifications

could result in electric shock, fire, erroneous operation, and damage to or deterioration of the

product.

●Using a tool specified by the manufacturer, correctly press, crimp, or solder the wires of the

connector and securely connect the connector to the module.

Incomplete connection may cause a short circuit and/or malfunctions.

●Do not directly touch the module's conductive parts or electronic components.

Touching the conductive parts could cause an operation failure or give damage to the module.

●Securely fix the module with the DIN rail or installation screws. Installation screws must be tightened

within the specified torque range.

A loose screw may cause a drop of the module, short circuit or malfunction.

Overtightening may damage the screw, resulting in a drop of the module or a short circuit.

●Completely connect each cable connector to each receptacle.

Incomplete connection may cause a malfunction due to poor contact.

A- 3

[Wiring Precautions]

CAUTION

●Be sure to shut off all phases of the external power supply used by the system before installation or

wiring.

Failure to do so may cause an electric shock, damage to the product and/or malfunctions.

●Attach the terminal cover to the product before energizing and operating the system after installation

or wiring.

Failure to do so may cause an electric shock.

●Be sure to ground the FG terminals and LG terminals to the protective ground conductor.

Failure to do so may result in malfunctions.

A- 4

[Wiring Precautions]

CAUTION

●Use applicable solderless terminals and tighten them within the specified torque range. If any spade

solderless terminal is used, it may be disconnected when a terminal block screw comes loose,

resulting in failure.

●When wiring in the programmable controller, be sure that it is done correctly by checking the

product's rated voltage and the terminal layout.

Connecting a power supply that is different from the rating or incorrectly wiring the product could

result in fire or damage.

●Tighten the terminal screws with the specified torque.

If the terminal screws are loose, it could result in short circuits, fire, or erroneous operation.

Overtightening a terminal screw may damage the screw, resulting in a short circuit or malfunction.

●Be sure there are no foreign substances such as sawdust or wiring debris inside the module.

Such debris could cause fires, damage, or erroneous operation.

●Place the connection wires and cables in a duct or clamp them.

If not, dangling cables may swing or inadvertently be pulled, resulting in damage to the module and/

or cables or malfunctions due to poor cable connection.

●Do not install the control cable(s) together with the communication cable(s).

Doing so may cause malfunctions due to noise.

●When disconnecting a communication or power cable from the module, do not pull it by holding the

cable part.

For a cable with connector, hold the connector and disconnect it from the module.

For a cable without connector, loosen the connector screw and disconnect the cable.

Pulling the cable that is still connected to the module may damage the module and/or cable and

cause malfunctions due to poor cable connection.

●Make sure that the interface type is correct before connecting the cable.

Do not connect a cable to a module that has different interface specification.

Doing so will cause a module failure.

●Using a tool specified by the manufacturer, correctly press, crimp, or solder the wires of the

connector and securely connect the connector to the module.

Failure to do so may result in a malfunction or failure of the module.
