Usage Notes
Before starting the external control
WARNING
To prevent an electric shock or damage to the device, always observe the
following precautions when connecting the cables to the EXT. I/O terminals.
• Always turn off the device and any devices to be connected before making
connections.
• Be careful to avoid exceeding the signal ratings of the EXT. I/O terminals.
•
During operation, a wire becoming dislocated and contacting another
conductive object can be a serious hazard. Use screws to secure the external
connectors.
• Ensure that devices and systems to be connected to the EXT. I/O terminals are
properly isolated from one another.
Before connecting the communications cables
CAUTION
• Use a common ground for both the device and the PC. Using different ground circuits
will result in a potential difference between the device's ground and the computer's
ground. If the communications cable is connected while such a potential difference
exists, it may result in device malfunction or failure.
• Before connecting or disconnecting any communications cables, always turn off the
device and the PC. Failure to do so could result in equipment malfunction or damage.
• After connecting the communications cables, tighten the screws on the connector
securely. Failure to secure the connector could result in device malfunction or damage.
• To avoid device failure, do not disconnect the communications cables while
communications are in progress.
Precautions during shipment
Store the packaging in which the device was delivered, as you will need it when transporting the
device.
