Description
Remedy
EEPROM is broken or reached the end of its working life.
Please replace the product.
EEPROM writing error
Load of the sensing output is short-circuited causing an
over-current to flow.
Turn OFF the power and check the load.

CAUTIONS
●
This product has been developed / produced for industrial use only.
● Make sure that the power supply is OFF while adding or removing the amplifiers.
●
Take care that if a voltage exceeding the rated range is applied, or if an AC power
supply is directly connected, the product may get burnt or be damaged.
●
Take care that short-circuit of the load or wrong wiring may burn or damage the
product.
●
Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or power lines, or put them in
the same raceway. This can cause malfunction due to induction.
● The specification may not be satisfied in a strong magnetic field.
●
Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
●
If power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure that the frame
ground (F.G.) terminal of the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
●
In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter motor, etc.) is
used in the vicinity of this product, connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the
equipment to an actual ground.
●
The ultra long distance (U-LG, HYPR) mode is more likely to be affected by
extraneous noise since the sensitivity of that is higher than the other modes. Make
sure to check the environment before use.
●
Do not use during the initial transient time (FAST, STD: 0.5 sec., LONG, U-LG,
HYPR: 1 sec.) after the power supply is switched ON.
●
When extending the cable length, use a cable with a conductor cross-sectional
area of 0.3 mm
2
or more. Note that the maximum allowed cable length is 100 m.
However, in order to reduce noise, make the wiring as short as possible.
●
Set the power supply voltage by considering the voltage drop resulting from the
conduction resistance of the cable.
●
Make sure that the cable joint is not applied with stress, such as strain caused by
forcible bending or pulling.
●
This product is suitable for indoor use only.
●
Avoid dust, dirt, and steam.
●
Take care that the product does not come into contact with organic solvents such
as thinner.
●
Take care that the product does not come into contact with strong acids or alkalis.
●
Take care that the product does not come into contact with oil or grease.
●
This product cannot be used in an environment containing inflammable or
explosive gasses.
●
Never disassemble or modify the product.
●
This product adopts EEPROM. Settings cannot be done 100 thousand times or
more because of the EEPROM’s lifetime.
