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 HITACHI 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,
HITACHI 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 60℃of
temperature. Avoid placing it directly in the sunlight.
•Avoid the place under circumstances over 90% 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!

2.1. Electrical Interface
• Network Adapter Module
The Network Adapter Module forms the link between the field bus and the field devices with the Expansion
Modules. The connection to different field bus systems can be established by each of the corresponding
Network Adapter Module, e.g. for MODBUS TCP, Ethernet IP, EtherCAT, PROFINET, PROFIBUS,
CANopen, MODBUS/Serial etc.
• Expansion Module
The Expansion Modules are supported a variety of input and output field devices. There are digital and
analog input/output modules and special function modules.
• Two types of Message
Service Messaging / I/O Messaging

2.2. I/O Process Image Map
An expansion module may have 3 types of data as I/O data, configuration parameter and memory register.
The data exchange between network adapter and expansion modules is done via an I/O process image
data by internal-protocol. The following figure shows the data flow of process image between network
adapter and expansion modules.

4. Module Description
4.1. MODBUS Programmable I/O
System power and Field power must be supplied separately.
The modules are not hot swappable.
It means that they should be not removed in power on condition.

13
HX-RIO3 Series
How to supply the power correctly
•Refer the pin map of power RTB before wiring.
•Current capacity margin should be considered when you supply the power.
•Supply voltage 24Vdc which is recommended voltage level.
•System and Field power must be supplied separately as the picture above.
•If the power is supplied to each System and Field power from same power source, it would
be vulnerable to power noise.

- System Power: The power for starting up CPU.
- Field Power: The power for input and output line.
Do not use an incorrect voltage/frequency!
The use of an incorrect supply voltage or frequency
can cause severe damage to the component.
4.6. Pin Description
Communication between the Network adapter 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 pins and 2 field power pins.
Do not touch data and field power pins in order to
avoid soiling and damage by ESD noise.
To prevent ESD noise, it is recommended to use
the END module.

5.2. How to dismount on Din-Rail
As above figure in order to safeguard the RIO3 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 RIO3 module, unfold the locking
lever as above figure.
Before starting the work on the components, the voltage supply must be turned off.
