1. Important Notes
Solid state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of electromechanical equipment.
Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation and Maintenance of Solid State Controls describes some
important differences between solid state equipment and hard-wired electromechanical devices.
Because of this difference, and also because of the wide variety of uses for solid state equipment, all
persons responsible for applying this equipment must satisfy themselves that each intended application of
this equipment is acceptable.
In no event will CREVIS be responsible or liable for indirect or consequential damages resulting from the use
or application of this equipment.
The examples and diagrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative purposes. Because of the many
variables and requirements associated with any particular installation, CREVIS cannot assume responsibility
or liability for actual use based on the examples and diagrams.
If you don't follow the directions, it could cause a personal injury, damage to the equipment or
explosion
Do not assemble the products and wire with power applied to the system. Else it may cause an electric arc,
which can result into unexpected and potentially dangerous action by field devices. Arching is explosion
risk in hazardous locations. Be sure that the area is non-hazardous or remove system power
appropriately before assembling or wiring the modules.
Do not touch any terminal blocks or IO modules when system is running. Else it may cause the unit to an
electric shock or malfunction.
Keep away from the strange metallic materials not related to the unit and wiring works should be controlled
by the electric expert engineer. Else it may cause the unit to a fire, electric shock or malfunction.
If you disobey the instructions, there may be possibility of personal injury, damage to equipment or
explosion. Please follow below Instructions.
Check the rated voltage and terminal array before wiring. Avoid the circumstances over 50℃of
temperature. Avoid placing it directly in the sunlight.
Avoid the place under circumstances over 85% of humidity.
Do not place Modules near by the inflammable material. Else it may cause a fire.
Do not permit any vibration approaching it directly.
Go through module specification carefully, ensure inputs, output connections are made with the
specifications. Use standard cables for wiring.
Use Product under pollution degree 2 environment.
Warning!
Caution!

1.1 Safety Instruction
1.1.1 Symbols
Identifies information about practices or circumstances that can cause an explosion
in a hazardous environment, which may lead to personal injury or death property
damage or economic loss.
Identifies information that is critical for successful application and understanding of
the product.
Identifies information about practices or circumstances that can lead to personal
injury, property damage, or economic loss.
Attentions help you to identity a hazard, avoid a hazard, and recognize the
consequences.
1.1.2 Safety Notes
The modules are equipped with electronic components that may be destroyed by
electrostatic discharge. When handling the modules, ensure that the environment

4. Mechanical Set Up
4.1 Total Expansion
The number of the module assembly that can be connected is 32. So the maximum length is 426mm
Exception.
ST-2748 is excepted to calculate maximum length because that is double width module.
4.2 Plugging and Removal of the Components.
Before work is done on the components, the voltage supply must be turned off.
As above figure in order to safeguard the FnIO module from jamming, it should be fixed onto the DIN rail
with locking level. To do so, fold on the upper of the locking lever.
To pull out the FnIO module, unfold the locking lever as below figure.

4.3 Internal FnBus/Field Power Contacts
Communication between the NA series and the expansion module as well as system / field power
supply of the bus modules is carried out via the internal bus. It is comprised of 6 data pin and 2 field
power pin.
Do not touch data and field power pins in order to avoid soiling and damage by ESD
noise.
