Application Precautions 5
• CS1-H, CS1D, CJ1, CJ1-H, and CJ1M CPU Units are shipped with the
battery installed and the time already set on the internal clock. It is not
necessary to clear memory or set the clock before application, as it is for
the CS-series CS1 CPU Units.
• When using a CS-series CS1 CPU Unit for the first time, install the
CS1W-BAT1 Battery provided with the Unit and clear all memory areas
from a Programming Device before starting to program. When using the
internal clock, turn ON power after installing the battery and set the clock
from a Programming Device or using the DATE(735) instruction. The clock
will not start until the time has been set.
• When the CPU Unit is shipped from the factory, the PLC Setup is set so
that the CPU Unit will start in the operating mode set on the Programming
Console mode switch. When a Programming Console is not connected, a
CS-series CS1 CPU Unit will start in PROGRAM mode, but a CS1-H,
CS1D, CJ1, CJ1-H, or CJ1M CPU Unit will start in RUN mode and opera-
tion will begin immediately. Do not advertently or inadvertently allow oper-
ation to start without confirming that it is safe.
• When creating an AUTOEXEC.IOM file from a Programming Device (a
Programming Console or the CX-Programmer) to automatically transfer
data at startup, set the first write address to D20000 and be sure that the
size of data written does not exceed the size of the DM Area. When the
data file is read from the Memory Card at startup, data will be written in
the CPU Unit starting at D20000 even if another address was set when
the AUTOEXEC.IOM file was created. Also, if the DM Area is exceeded
(which is possible when the CX-Programmer is used), the remaining data
will be written to the EM Area.
• Always turn ON power to the PLC before turning ON power to the control
system. If the PLC power supply is turned ON after the control power sup-
ply, temporary errors may result in control system signals because the
output terminals on DC Output Units and other Units will momentarily turn
ON when power is turned ON to the PLC.
• Fail-safe measures must be taken by the customer to ensure safety in the
event that outputs from Output Units remain ON as a result of internal cir-
cuit failures, which can occur in relays, transistors, and other elements.
• Fail-safe measures must be taken by the customer to ensure safety in the
event of incorrect, missing, or abnormal signals caused by broken signal
lines, momentary power interruptions, or other causes.
• Interlock circuits, limit circuits, and similar safety measures in external cir-
cuits (i.e., not in the Programmable Controller) must be provided by the
customer.
• Do not turn OFF the power supply to the PLC when data is being trans-
ferred. In particular, do not turn OFF the power supply when reading or
writing a Memory Card. Also, do not remove the Memory Card when the
BUSY indicator is lit. To remove a Memory Card, first press the memory
card power supply switch and then wait for the BUSY indicator to go out
before removing the Memory Card.
• If the I/O Hold Bit is turned ON, the outputs from the PLC will not be
turned OFF and will maintain their previous status when the PLC is
switched from RUN or MONITOR mode to PROGRAM mode. Make sure
that the external loads will not produce dangerous conditions when this
occurs. (When operation stops for a fatal error, including those produced
with the FALS(007) instruction, all outputs from Output Unit will be turned
OFF and only the internal output status will be maintained.)
