Safety Precaution

 

(Read these precautions before using.)

Before using this product, please read this manual and the relevant manuals
introduced in this manual carefully and pay full attention to safety to handle the
product correctly.
The precautions given in this manual are concerned with this product.

In this manual, the safety precautions are ranked as 

 and 

.

Depending on circumstances, procedures indicated by 

 may also be

linked to serious results. 
In any case, it is important to follow the directions for usage.       

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous
conditions, resulting in death or severe injury.

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous
conditions, resulting in medium or slight personal injury or
physical damage.

DESIGN PRECAUTIONS

Some failures of the GOT or cable may keep the outputs on or off.

An external monitoring circuit should be provided to check for output signals

which may lead to a serious accident.

Not doing so can cause an accident due to false output or malfunction.

If a communication fault (including cable disconnection) occurs during

monitoring on the GOT, communication between the GOT and PLC CPU is

suspended and the GOT becomes inoperative.

A system where the GOT is used should be configured to perform any

significant operation to the system by using the switches of a device other

than the GOT on the assumption that a GOT communication fault will occur.

Not doing so can cause an accident due to false output or malfunction.

Do not use the GOT as the warning device that may cause a serious

accident. An independent and redundant hardware or mechanical interlock is

required to configure the device that displays and outputs serious warning.

Failure to observe this instruction may result in an accident due to incorrect

output or malfunction.

DESIGN PRECAUTIONS

Do not bundle the control and communication cables with main-circuit, power

or other wiring. Run the above cables separately from such wiring and keep

them a minimum of 100mm (3.94in.) apart.Not doing so noise can cause a

malfunction.

MOUNTING PRECAUTIONS

Make sure to turn off the Connector Conversion Box's power before attaching or

detaching it to/from the GOT.

Failure to do so may cause unit failure or malfunctions.

MOUNTING PRECAUTIONS

Use the Connector Conversion Box within the generic environment specifications

described in this manual. If the product is used in such conditions, electric shock,

fire, malfunctions, deterioration or damage may occur.

WIRING PRECAUTIONS

Be sure to shut off all phases of the external power supply used by the system

before wiring. Failure to do so may result in an electric shock, product damage or

malfunctions.

Please make sure to ground FG terminal of the Connector Conversion Box power

supply section by applying 100 or less which is used exclusively for the GOT. Not

doing so may cause an electric shock or malfunction.

Correctly wire the Connector Conversion Box power supply section after

confirming the rated voltage and terminal arrangement of the GOT. Not doing so

can cause a fire or failure.

Exercise care to avoid foreign matter such as chips and wire offcuts entering the

GOT. Not doing so can cause a fire, failure or malfunction.

WIRING PRECAUTIONS

Plug the communication cable into the connector of the connected unit and

tighten the mounting and terminal screws in the specified torque range.

Undertightening can cause a short circuit or malfunction. Overtightening can

cause a short circuit or malfunction due to the damage of the screws or unit.

TEST OPERATION 
PRECAUTIONS

Before performing the test operations of the user creation monitor screen (such as

turning ON or OFF bit device, changing the word device current value, changing

the settings or current values of the timer or counter, and changing the buffer

memory current value), read through the manual carefully and make yourself

familiar with the operation method. During test operation, never change the data

of the devices which are used to perform significant operation for the system.

False output or malfunction can cause an accident.

STARTUP/MAINTENANCE 
PRECAUTIONS

When power is on, do not touch the terminals.

Doing so can cause an electric shock or malfunction.

Before starting cleaning or terminal screw retightening, always switch off the

power externally in all phases. Not switching the power off in all phases can cause

a unit failure or malfunction. Undertightening can cause a short circuit or

malfunction. Overtightening can cause a short circuit or malfunction due to the

damage of the screws or unit.

STARTUP/MAINTENANCE 
PRECAUTIONS

Do not disassemble or modify the unit.

Doing so can cause a failure, malfunction, injury or fire.

Do not touch the conductive and electronic parts of the unit directly.

Doing so can cause a unit malfunction or failure.

The cables connected to the unit must be run in ducts or clamped.

Not doing so can cause the unit or cable to be damaged due to the dangling,

motion or accidental pulling of the cables or can cause a malfunction due to a

cable connection fault.

When unplugging the cable connected to the unit, do not hold and pull the cable

portion. Doing so can cause the unit or cable to be damaged or can cause a

malfunction due to a cable connection fault.

DISPOSAL PRECAUTIONS

When disposing of the product, handle it as industrial waste.

TRANSPORTATION 
PRECAUTIONS

The Connector Conversion Box is a precision instrument. During transportation,

avoid impacts larger than those specified in this manual. Failure to do so may

cause failures in the unit. After transportation, verify the operations of the unit.

3) General notes on Power supply

The Connector Conversion Box requires an
additional ferrite filter to be attached to the
24V DC power supply cables. The filter
should be attached in a similar

 

manner as

shown in the figure opposite, i.e. the power
c ab l es   a re   w ra p pe d   ar ou n d  t h e  f i l te r.
However, as with all EMC situations the more
correctly applied precautions the better the
systems Electro-magnetic Compatibility. The
ferrite recommended is a TDK ZCAT3035-
1330 or similar. The ferrite should be placed
as near to the 24V DC terminals of the
Connector Conversion Box as possible (which
should be within 75mm of the GOT terminal).

4. Installation

The Connector Conversion Box can be installed on the panel face directly or on the DIN rail.

4.1 Mounting on the panel face 

(When setting the connector for Handy GOT connection and the power supply switch on the panel surface)

1) Direct mounting on the panel face

Drill a mounting slot of the following size on the panel face.

2) Installation of the packing

Install the accessory packing to the packing attachment chase of the
Connector Conversion Box. Be sure to install the packing.

3) Mounting on the panel face

Fit the Connector Conversion Box from the back side of the panel face, and fix it with four M4 screws (prepared by user).
In the Connector Conversion Box, thread of M4, 6mm (0.23”) in depth is cut in each mounting hole. Prepare four M4 mounting screws separately while considering the
thickness of the panel face. (Tightening torque: 0.69 to 0.88 N•m)
Make sure that interfering objects are not located within 65mm (2.56”) from the rear face so that the connector of a PLC cable is not hindered.
To wire the terminal block, keep a space of 25mm (0.98”) or more on both sides of the Connector Conversion Box.

4.2 Mounting on the panel face (When installing the Connector Conversion Box on the panel surface)

1) Mounting on the panel face

Install the Connector Conversion Box on the panel face (mounting surface). Drill screw holes on the panel face as follows. Tighten the mounting screw with the specified
torque. Tightening screws too much may cause damage. (Tightening torque: 0.69 to 0.88 N•m)

4.3 Installed on the DIN rail

Install the Connector Conversion Box on the DIN rail
with using its DIN rail hook.
(Applicable DIN rail DIN46277 (width: 35mm (1.37”))
The clearance between screws for install the DIN
rail should be 150mm (5.9”) or less.
