MOUNTING

How to mount

1. 

 Fit the rear part of the mounting section of the 

controller on a DIN rail.

2. 

 Press down the rear part of the mounting sec-

tion of the unit on the DIN rail and fit the front 

part of the mounting section to the DIN rail.

2.

 Press

Connecting the sensor head connection cable

Always shut off the power before connecting a slave unit to or disconnecting a sen-

sor head connection cable from this product. Risk of controller damage if you at-

tempt connection with the power ON.

How to mount

1. 

 Insert the sensor head connection cable into 

the connector for the sensor head connection 

cable on the controller.

1.

 Insert

Note:  Insert the connector firmly. Risk of sensor head or controller damage if not completely connected.

How to remove

1. 

 Grasp the controller, and while pressing on 

the release lever on the connector of the sen-

sor head connection cable, pull the cable to-

ward you to disconnect.

1.

 Pull out

Release lever

Note:  Do not pull by holding the cable without pressing the release lever, as this can cause cable break or connector break.

CONNECTING SLAVE UNITS

 

 Always shut OFF the power before connecting a slave unit or communication 

unit to or disconnecting a slave unit or communication unit from the master unit. 

Risk of controller damage if you attempt connection with the power ON.

 

 Insert the male connector firmly into the female connector. Risk of controller 

damage if not completely connected.

 

 To connect units, the units must be mounted on a DIN rail. Attach end plates  

MS-DIN-E

 (optional) so as to enclose the connected units at the ends.

 

 Up to 15 slave units can be connected per master unit. (When communication 

unit consolidated: up to 14 slave units)

 

When the 

HG-T

 controller and 

HG-S

 controller are used in combination, connect 

the slave units of the same series to the side closer to the master unit, and 

connect the slave units of the different series to the far side.

 

When the 

HG-T

 controller and 

HG-S

 controller are used in combination, some 

functions such as computation function and copy function are restricted. For de-

tailed information, refer to the “

HG-T

 

Series User’s Manual” (our web 

site:https://panasonic.net/id/pidsx/global )

.

 

If the 

HG-T

 controller is connected with 

HG-S

 controller manufactured prior to 

January 2019, it will not operate properly. Be sure to connect the product to 

HG-S

 controller manufactured in or after February 2019.

 

 When connecting slave units to a master unit, connect only NPN output types, or 

only PNP output types. Dissimilar output types cannot be connected together.

To mount or remove a controller, refer to “

”.

How to connect

1. 

 

Mount one master unit on the DIN 

rail.

2. 

 

Remove the connector cover.

3. 

 

Mount each slave unit one at a time 

on the DIN rail. Remove all connec-

tor covers except for the cover on 

the last end slave unit.

4. 

 

Slide each slave unit and connect 

the female and male connectors.

5. 

 

Attach end plates 

MS-DIN-E

 (op-

tional) with the flat side facing in so 

as to enclose the connected units 

at the ends.

6. 

 Tighten the screws to fasten the 

end plates. Tighten to a torque of 

0.3N·m or less.
