such problems, external safety measures must be provided to ensure safety in
the system.
•
When the 24-VDC output (service power supply to the PC) is overloaded or
short-circuited, the voltage may drop and result in the outputs being turned
OFF. As a countermeasure for such problems, external safety measures must
be provided to ensure safety in the system.
Caution Execute online edit only after confirming that no adverse effects will be caused
by extending the cycle time. Otherwise, the input signals may not be readable.
Caution Confirm safety at the destination node before transferring a program to another
node or editing the I/O area. Doing either of these without confirming safety may
result in injury.
WARNING
Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify any Units. Any attempt to do so
may result in malfunction, fire, or electric shock.
Caution Provide appropriate safety measures, such as overheat prevention and alarm
systems, in separate circuits to ensure safety of the entire system even when the
Temperature Controller malfunctions.
