[Design Precautions]

WARNING

●For the operating status of each station after a communication failure in the data link or the network,

refer to the following manuals.

Failure to do so may result in an accident due to an incorrect output or malfunction.

• Q Corresponding MELSECNET/H Network System Reference Manual (PLC to PLC network)

• Q Corresponding MELSECNET/H Network System Reference Manual (Remote I/O network)

• Q Corresponding MELSECNET/H Remote I/O Module Reference Manual (MELSECNET/10

Mode)

• CC-Link System Master/Local Module User's Manual

●If a coaxial cable is disconnected, the network may be unstable, resulting in a communication failure

of multiple stations. Configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the entire system will

always operate safely even if communications fail. Failure to do so may result in an accident due to

an incorrect output or malfunction.

●When connecting a peripheral with the CPU module or connecting a personal computer with an

intelligent function module to modify data of a running programmable controller, configure an

interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the entire system will always operate safely.

For other forms of control (such as program modification or operating status change) of a running

programmable controller, read the relevant manuals carefully and ensure that the operation is safe

before proceeding. Especially, when a remote programmable controller is controlled by an external

device, immediate action cannot be taken if a problem occurs in the programmable controller due to

a communication failure. To prevent this, configure an interlock circuit in the program, and determine

corrective actions to be taken between the external device and CPU module in case of a

communication failure.

●Do not write any data to the "system area" of the buffer memory in each intelligent function module.

Do not write any data to the "system area" of the buffer memory in the intelligent function module.

Also, do not use any "use prohibited" signals as an output signal from the CPU module to the

intelligent function module. Doing so may cause malfunction of the programmable controller system.

●To set the auto refresh parameter, select the device Y for the remote output (RY) refresh device.

If a device other than Y is selected, the CPU module holds the device status even after its status is

changed to STOP. For how to stop data link, refer to the following manual.

• CC-Link System Master/Local Module User's Manual

●If a CC-Link dedicated cable is disconnected, the network may be unstable, resulting in a

communication failure of multiple stations. Configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure

that the entire system will always operate safely even if communications fail.

Failure to do so may result in an accident due to an incorrect output or malfunction.

A- 3

CAUTION

●After changing the parameter of the CPU module or the remote I/O module, reset the CPU module.

Failure to do so may cause malfunction, since the previous parameter setting remains in the module.

●Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power

cables. Keep a distance of 100mm or more between them. Failure to do so may result in malfunction

due to noise.

A- 4
