3.  EXTERNAL WIRING

 WARNING

 

To avoid the risk of an electric shock, turn off the 

power supply and use a tester or similar device to 

ensure that no power is supplied to a cable to be 

connected, before carrying out wiring work.

 

Do not operate the product in the presence of 

flammable or explosive gases or vapors.  To do so is 

highly dangerous.

 

Use of the product ignoring the specifications may 

cause overheating or damage.  Before turning on 

the power, ensure the following:

 •

Power supply voltage and input signal value 

applied to the product should meet the required 

specifications.

 •

The external wiring to the terminals and wiring to 

ground are as specifications.

Note:When power of VJP8 is turned on/off, one pulse may be counted by the 

pulse input device which connects to the VJP8.

Wiring should be connected to the terminals on the socket 

of the product.  The terminals for external connections are of 

M3 screws. Use crimp-on terminal lugs for connections to the 

terminals.

 •

Recommended cables: A nominal cross-sectional area of 

0.5 mm

2

 or thicker for signal cables, and that of 1.25 mm

2

 or 

thicker for power cables.

 CAUTION

 

Do not use output-2 for the isolated single-output 

type.

 

The power line and input/output signal lines should 

be installed away from noise-generating sources.  

Other wise accuracy cannot be guaranteed.

 

Make sure to earth ground the ground terminal 

through minimum resistance. The length and 

thickness of the grounding cable should be as 

short and thick as possible.  Directly connect the 

lead from the ground terminal (terminal no. 8) of 

the product to the ground.  Do not carry out daisy-

chained inter-ground terminal wiring.

 

The product is sensitive to static electricity; 

exercise care in operating it.  Before you operate 

the product, touch a nearby metal part to discharge 

static electricity.

 

If the ambient temperature is 50 °C or more, please 

use the cable that the rated temperature is 70 °C or 

more.
