SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 
(Always read these precautions prior to use.)
Before using this product, please read this manual carefully and pay full attention to safety to ensure that
the product is used correctly.
The precautions presented in this manual are concerned with this product only. For Programmable
Controller system safety precautions, refer to the user’s manual of theMELSEC-L series CPU module to
be used.
In this manual, the safety precautions are ranked as “WARNING” and “CAUTION.”
Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions,
resulting in death or severe injury.
WARNING
Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions,
resulting in medium or minor injury and/or property damage.
CAUTION
Note that failure to observe the CAUTION level instructions may lead to a serious consequence
according to the circumstances. Always follow the precautions of both levels because they are important
to personal safety.
Please keep this manual in an easy-to-access location for future reference, and be sure to provide the
manual to the end user.
[Precautions before using] CAUTION
When making a switch from the MELSEC-AnS Series to the MELSEC-L Series, be sure to
consult user's manual supplied with individual module under the MELSEC-L Series to confirm
differences in various aspects including performance, function, CPU input/output signals and
buffer memory addresses between the two series.
[Installation Precautions] CAUTION
Use the Conversion Adapter in the environmental conditions that are specified in the general
specification. If the Products are used in any environment beyond the bounds of the general
specification, electric shock, fire, malfunction, or damage to or degradation of the Products will
result.
Do not directly touch any conductive parts of Conversion Adapter. Contact will cause
malfunction or failure in the system.
Fasten the Conversion Adapter and the Mounting Bracket securely with retaining screws, and
tighten the screws by applying torque within specified limits. Loose screws can lead to the
dropping of the Conversion Adapter or Mounting Bracket, possibly causing breakage thereof.
Excessive tightness of the screws can lead to breakage of the screws, Conversion Adapter,
Mounting Bracket, or MELSEC-L Series Module, possibly causing the dropping, shorting, and
malfunction thereof.
Always check for correct match between MELSEC-L Series and the Conversion Adapter.
Incorrect match can cause damage to the MELSEC-LSeries Module.
When installing the Conversion Adapter, take care not to get your hand snagged on the
Mounting Bracket or the like. Injury may result.
When installing or removing the MELSEC-L Series Module complete with a Converter
Adapter, be sure to hold it with both hands. Dropping may lead to breakage.
[Wiring Precautions]
WARNING
Before attempting to install the Unit or carry out the necessary wiring, make certain that the
external power supply, used in the system, is shut off on all three phases. Failure to do so may
result in electric shock or damage to the product.
After installation and wiring, close the terminal block cover before turning on the module for
operation. Failure to do so may result in electric shock.
CAUTION
Carry out wiring for the Conversion Adapter correctly after checking the specification and
terminal arrangement for the module used. Connecting a power supply with a different voltage
rating or incorrect wiring may cause a fire or failure.
Tighten the MELSEC-AnS Series terminal installation screws and terminal screw securely by
applying torque within the specified limits. Loose screws will cause short circuit, fire or
malfunction. Excessive tightening will damage the screws or the Conversion Adapter which in
turn will cause dropping of parts, short circuit or malfunction.
Use care to prevent foreign materials including cuttings and wiring debris from entering the
Conversion Adapter or the MELSEC-L Series Module. These will be cause for fire, failure or
malfunction.
[Startup and Maintenance Precautions]
WARNING
Do not touch live terminals. There is a danger of electric shock or malfunction.
Shut off the external power supply for the system in all phases before cleaning or
retightening the terminal screws. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or cause the
MELSEC-Q Series module to fail or malfunction. Loose screws can lead to dropping,
shorting, and malfunction. Excessive tightness of the screws can lead to breakage of the
screws, Conversion Adapter, Mounting Bracket, or MELSEC-Q Series Module, possibly
causing the dropping, shorting, and malfunction thereof.
CAUTION
Do not modify the Conversion Adapter or take it apart. Doing so will cause failure,
malfunction, personal injury, or fire.
Do not drop the Conversion Adapter and Mounting Bracket or do not give a strong impact
to it. This will cause damage.
[Disposal Precautions]
CAUTION
When disposing of the product, treat it as industrial waste.

Precautions for programming
(1) A1S62DA and L60DA4 differ from each other in the wayinput/output signals (X, Y) and buffer memory addresses are allocated. Therefore, you need make necessary changes to the sequence programthat is
used.
(2) CH3 and CH4 of L60DA4 cannot be used.
Precautions for wiring
L60DA4 is not provided with a terminal for Offset/Gain setting or Output Hold/Clear setting
purposes.
Make Output Hold/Clear setting by choosing an appropriate L60DA4 intelligent function
module switch setting.
For more details about the Offset/Gain setting and Output Hold/Clear setting, seethe L60DA4
User’s Manual.
L60DA4 requires power supply. Therefore, use the opened terminals(TB18, TB19) of
A1S62DA to provide 24VDC power supply to L60DA4.
Connect the shield wires of each channel to the opened terminals (TB11 and TB17) of
A1S62DA, and make sure to ground the FG terminal (TB18) of L60DA4 by using the opened
terminal (TB20) of A1S62DA.

4．Mounting and Installation
4.1 Handling Precautions
(1) Before attempting to install the Unit or carry out the necessary wiring, make certain that the
external power supply, used in the system, is shut off on all three phases. Failure to do so may
result in electric shock or damage to the product.
(2) Do not touch live terminals. There is a danger of electric shock or malfunction.
(3) Do not modify the Conversion Adapter or take it apart. Doing so will cause failure, malfunction,
personal injury, or fire.
(4) Do not touch the energized part of the Conversion Adapter directly. Contact will cause
malfunction or failure in the system.
(5) Fasten the Conversion Adapter and the Mounting bracket securely with retaining screws, and
tighten the screws by applying torque within specified limits. Loose screws can lead to the
dropping of the Conversion Adapter, or Mounting bracket, possibly causing breakage thereof.
Excessive tightness of the screws can lead to breakage of the screws, Converter Adaptor,
Mounting bracket, or MELSEC-L Series Module, possibly causing the dropping, shorting, and
malfunction thereof.
(6) Use care to prevent foreign materials including cuttings and wiring debris from entering the
Conversion Adapter or the MELSEC-L Series Module. These will be cause for fire, failure or
malfunction.
(7) Do not drop the Conversion Adapter and Mounting Bracket or do not give a strong impact to it.
This will cause damage.
