Caution for EC Directive

Installation in Enclosure

Programmable logic controllers are open-type devices that must be installed

and used within conductive control cabinets. Please use the programmable

logic controller while installed within a conductive shielded control cabinet.

Please secure the cabinet door to the control cabinet (for conduction). Installa-

tion within a control cabinet greatly affects the safety of the system and aids in

shielding noise from the programmable logic controller.

Control cabinet

- The control cabinet must be conductive.
- Ground the control cabinet with the thickest possible grounding cable.
- To ensure that there is electric contact between the control cabinet and its door, 

connect the cabinet and its doors with thick wires. 

- In order to suppress the leakage of radio waves, the control cabinet structure 

must have minimal openings. Also, wrap the cable holes with a shielding cover 

or other shielding devices.

- The gap between the control cabinet and its door must be as small as possible 

by attaching EMI gaskets between them.

* These wires are used to improve the conductivity between the door and control

cabinet.

INSTALLATION 
PRECAUTIONS

Make sure to cut off all phases of the power supply externally before

attempting installation work.

Failure to do so may cause electric shock or damage to the product.

INSTALLATION 
PRECAUTIONS

Use the product within the generic environment specifications described in

PLC main unit manual (Hardware Edition).

Never use the product in areas with excessive dust, oily smoke, conductive

dusts, corrosive gas (salt air, Cl

2

, H

2

S, SO

2

, or NO

2

), flammable gas, vibration

or impacts, or expose it to high temperature, condensation, or rain and wind.

If the product is used in such conditions, electric shock, fire, malfunctions,

deterioration or damage may occur.

Do not touch the conductive parts of the product directly. 

Doing so may cause device failures or malfunctions.

Install the product securely using a DIN rail or mounting screws.

Install the product on a flat surface.

If the mounting surface is rough, undue force will be applied to the PC board,

thereby causing nonconformities.

When drilling screw holes or wiring, make sure that cutting and wiring debris

do not enter the ventilation slits.

Failure to do so may cause fire, equipment failures or malfunctions.

Be sure to remove the dust proof sheet from the PLC's ventilation port when

installation work is completed. 

Failure to do so may cause fire, equipment failures or malfunctions.

Make sure to attach the top cover, offered as an accessory, before turning on

the power or initiating operation after installation or wiring work. 

Failure to do so may cause electric shock.

Connect extension cables securely to their designated connectors.

Loose connections may cause malfunctions.

For details on anchoring, refer to the following manual.

DESIGN
PRECAUTIONS

For the status of each station when the main unit stops calculation or when a

communication error occurs in the data link, thoroughly read the description of

data link processing time in the CC-Link master module manual. Construct an

interlock circuit in the sequence program using the communication status

information (BFM, SB, SW) so that the system always works conservatively.

Erroneous outputs and malfunctions may cause accidents.
1) Setting to hold or clear the input information against data link error

Remote outputs (RY) and remote registers (RWw) are held or cleared in

accordance with the setting of BFM #32.

   0 (default): Data prior to the error is held.

   Other than 0: Data prior to the error is cleared.

2) Setting to hold or clear the data against a stop in the main unit

Remote inputs (RX) and remote registers (RWr) are held or cleared in

accordance with the setting of BFM #33.

   0 (default): Data prior to the stop is held.

   Other than 0: Data prior to the stop is cleared.

When executing control (data changes) to an operating PLC, construct an

interlock circuit in the sequence program so that the entire system operates

conservatively. 

In addition, when executing control such as program changes and operation

status changes (status control) to an operating PLC, thoroughly read the manual

and sufficiently confirm safety in advance. 

Especially in control from external equipment to a PLC in a remote place,

problems in the PLC may not be able to be handled promptly due to abnormality

in data transfer. 

Construct an interlock circuit in the sequence program. At the same time,

determine the actions in the system between the external equipment and the PLC

(Master station contains) for protection against abnormalities in data transfer.

Make sure to include the following safety circuits outside the PLC to ensure safe

system operation even during external power supply problems or PLC failure.

Otherwise, malfunctions may cause serious accidents.
1) Above all, the following components should be included: an emergency stop

circuit, a protection circuit, an interlock circuit for opposite movements (such

as normal vs. reverse rotation), and an interlock circuit (to prevent damage to

the equipment at the upper and lower positioning limits).

2) Note that when the PLC main unit detects an error during self diagnosis, such

as a watchdog timer error, all outputs are turned off. Also, when an error that

cannot be detected by the PLC main unit occurs in an input/output control

block, output control may be disabled.

External circuits and mechanisms should be designed to ensure safe

machinery operation in such cases.

3.3 Power Supply Specification

DESIGN
PRECAUTIONS

Observe the following items. Failure to do so may cause incorrect data-writing

through noise to the PLC and result in PLC failure, machine damage or other

accident.
1) Do not bundle the control line together with or lay it close to the main circuit or

power line. As a guideline, lay the control line at least 100mm (3.94") or more

away from the main circuit or power line.

Noise may cause malfunctions.

2) Ground the shield wire or shield of a shielded cable. Do not use common

grounding with heavy electrical systems.

Do not apply excessive pressure to the power supply terminal block or CC-Link

connection terminal block. Excessive pressure may cause damage or error.

DISPOSAL 
PRECAUTIONS

Please contact a certified electronic waste disposal company for the

environmentally safe recycling and disposal of your device.

TRANSPORT AND STORAGE 
PRECAUTIONS

The PLC is a precision instrument. During transportation, avoid impacts larger

than those specified in the general specifications of the PLC main unit manual.

Failure to do so may cause failures in the PLC. 

After transportation, verify the operations of the PLC.
