CAUTION
Operator Alarm on Low Battery Voltage
This controller is equipped with the following backup batteries for retention of data in the event of power failure:
[1] System-memory backup battery
For retention of position data, global variables/flags, error list, strings, etc.
[2] Absolute-encoder backup battery (optional)
For retention of rotation data (when an absolute encoder is used)
Since these batteries are not rechargeable, they will be eventually consumed. Unless the batteries are replaced
in a timely manner, the voltage will drop to a level where the data can no longer be retained. If a power failure
occurs in this condition, the data will be lost. (The life of each battery varies depending on the operating time.)
Once the data is lost, the controller will not operate normally the next time the power is turned on, and recovery
will take time.
(Reference)
System-memory backup battery --- An alarm occurs when the voltage drops to approx. 2.6 V and data backup
becomes no longer possible at a battery voltage of approx. 2.3 V (rated
voltage: 3.0 V).
Absolute-encoder backup battery --- An alarm occurs when the voltage drops to approx. 3.2 V and data backup
becomes no longer possible at a battery voltage of approx. 2.7 V (rated
voltage: 3.6 V).
To prevent this problem, this controller can output a low battery voltage alarm from its I/O port.
To output this alarm signal from an I/O port, you must set the applicable I/O parameter.
Alarm output for the system-memory backup battery
Set I/O parameter No. 59 to “1” --- Output port No. 313 (*) will be assigned as a dedicated port.
Alarm output for the absolute-encoder backup battery
Set I/O parameter No. 60 to “1” --- Output port No. 314 (*) will be assigned as a dedicated port.
(*) Once set as an alarm output port, the applicable port can no longer be used as a general-purpose
port.
It is recommended that this function be utilized to prevent unnecessary problems resulting from low battery
voltage (consumption of battery life).
In particular, the person in charge of system design should utilize this function to provide a design means for
issuing an operator alarm using an output signal from an I/O port, while the person in charge of electrical design
should provide an electrical means for achieving the same effect.
For the battery replacement procedure, refer to the applicable section in the operating manual.
It is recommended that you always backup the latest data to a PC in case of voltage drop in the system-memory
battery or unexpected controller failure.
About teaching pendant and PC software
Q/QCT type controllers only support the following teaching pendant and PC software:
Teaching pendant: IA-T-XA (ANSI type)
PC software: IA-101-XA-MW (Supplied with category 4 cable)

Drive-Source Cutoff Relay Error (Detection of Fused Relay: E6D)
As a condition limited to XSEL-P/PCT type controllers of standard single-phase specification, a “drive-source cutoff
relay error (E6D)” may generate if the power is turned off and then turned on again (reconnected) too quickly.
This error indicates that the internal relay has fused, and its occurr
configuration of the above controller type.

resistors connected, as a general guide wait for
Regarding Operation of High Speed Cartesian Robot CT4
It is necessary to declare specific functions in SEL language program for the operation.
[Refer to Appendix Operation of High Speed Cartesian Robot (CT4) for the details.]
Power Supply/Shutoff and Input of Emergency Stop
1) Do not turn on/off the power frequently.
2) Do not construct the system that allows frequent input of emergency stop or turning on/off of the drive power.
In the power source of the controller, there is a capacitor that allows large in-rush current (charge current) to flow
transiently when the power is turned on.
Therefore, it may cause early degradation on the internal components if turning on/off of the power and turning
on/off of the drive power due to emergency stop input are conducted frequently.
Contact IAI in case it is necessary to establish a system to allow frequent turning on/off of the power inevitably.

CAUTION
Note on Controller with Expanded CPU Unit Memory
* The controller with gateway function comes with an expanded memory in the CPU unit.
For a controller with expanded CPU unit memory, use the PC software or teaching pendant of an applicable
version as specified below.
Teaching tool Version
XSEL PC software V7.2.0.0 or later
Teaching pendant SEL-T/TD V1.01 or later
[How to check if the controller memory has been expanded]
Check in the PC software (Ver. 6.0.0.0 or later) by displaying the ROM version information (Controller (C)
ROM Version Information (V)), or on the teaching pendant (IA-T-X, IA-T-XD: Ver. 1.21 or later; SEL-T, SEL-TD:
Ver. 1.00 or later) by displaying the main CPU firmware version information (Moni Ver Main).
