Safety Precautions
WARNING
The CPU Unit refreshes I/O even when the program is stopped (i.e., even in
PROGRAM mode). Confirm safety thoroughly in advance before changing the
status of any part of memory allocated to I/O Units, Special I/O Units, or CPU Bus
Units. Any changes to the data allocated to any Unit may result in unexpected
operation of the loads connected to the Unit. Any of the following operation may
result in changes to memory status.
•
Transferring I/O memory data to the CPU Unit from a Programming Device.
•
Changing present values in memory from a Programming Device.
•
Force-setting/-resetting bits from a Programming Device.
•
Transferring I/O memory files from a Memory Card or EM file memory to the
CPU Unit.
•
Transferring I/O memory from a host computer or from another PC on a net-
work.
WARNING
Do not attempt to take any Unit apart while the power is being supplied. Doing so
may result in electric shock.
WARNING
Do not touch any of the terminals or terminal blocks while the power is being
supplied. Doing so may result in electric shock.
