1. To prevent electric shock, note the following
WARNING
Before wiring and inspections, turn off the power and wait for 15 minutes or more until the charge lamp
turns off. Then, confirm that the voltage between P+ and N- is safe with a voltage tester and others.
Otherwise, an electric shock may occur. In addition, when confirming whether the charge lamp is off or
not, always confirm it from the front of the servo amplifier.
Ground the servo amplifier and servo motor securely.
Any person who is involved in wiring and inspection should be fully competent to do the work.
Do not attempt to wire the servo amplifier and servo motor until they have been installed. Otherwise, it
may cause an electric shock.
Do not operate switches with wet hands. Otherwise, it may cause an electric shock.
The cables should not be damaged, stressed, loaded, or pinched. Otherwise, it may cause an electric
shock.
To prevent an electric shock, always connect the protective earth (PE) terminal (marked ) of the servo
amplifier to the protective earth (PE) of the cabinet.
To avoid an electric shock, insulate the connections of the power supply terminals.
2. To prevent fire, note the following
CAUTION
Install the servo amplifier, servo motor, and regenerative resistor on incombustible material. Installing
them directly or close to combustibles will lead to smoke or a fire.
Always connect a magnetic contactor between the power supply and the main circuit power supply (L1,
L2, and L3) of the servo amplifier, in order to configure a circuit that shuts down the power supply on the
side of the servo amplifier’s power supply. If a magnetic contactor is not connected, continuous flow of a
large current may cause smoke or a fire when the servo amplifier malfunctions.
Always connect a molded-case circuit breaker, or a fuse to each servo amplifier between the power
supply and the main circuit power supply (L1, L2, and L3) of the servo amplifier (including converter unit),
in order to configure a circuit that shuts down the power supply on the side of the servo amplifier’s power
supply. If a molded-case circuit breaker or fuse is not connected, continuous flow of a large current may
cause smoke or a fire when the servo amplifier malfunctions.
When using the regenerative resistor, switch power off with the alarm signal. Otherwise, a regenerative
transistor malfunction or the like may overheat the regenerative resistor, causing smoke or a fire.
Provide adequate protection to prevent screws and other conductive matter, oil and other combustible
matter from entering the servo amplifier and servo motor.
3. To prevent injury, note the following
CAUTION
Only the voltage specified in the Instruction Manual should be applied to each terminal. Otherwise, a
burst, damage, etc. may occur.
Connect cables to the correct terminals. Otherwise, a burst, damage, etc. may occur.
Ensure that polarity (+/-) is correct. Otherwise, a burst, damage, etc. may occur.
The servo amplifier heat sink, regenerative resistor, servo motor, etc. may be hot while power is on or for
some time after power-off. Take safety measures, e.g. provide covers, to prevent accidental contact of
hands and parts (cables, etc.) with them.

4. Additional instructions
The following instructions should also be fully noted. Incorrect handling may cause a malfunction, injury,
electric shock, fire, etc.
(1) Transportation and installation
CAUTION
Transport the products correctly according to their mass.
Stacking in excess of the specified number of product packages is not allowed.
Install the servo amplifier and the servo motor in a load-bearing place in accordance with the Instruction
Manual.
Do not get on or put heavy load on the equipment.
The equipment must be installed in the specified direction.
Leave specified clearances between the servo amplifier and the cabinet walls or other equipment.
Do not install or operate the servo amplifier and servo motor which have been damaged or have any
parts missing.
When you keep or use the equipment, please fulfill the following environment.
Item Environment

Altitude Max. 1000 m above sea level
Vibration resistance 5.9 m/s2at 10 Hz to 55 Hz (directions of X, Y, and Z axes)
Do not block the intake and exhaust areas of the servo amplifier. Otherwise, it may cause a malfunction.
Do not drop or strike the servo amplifier and servo motor. Isolate them from all impact loads.
When the equipment has been stored for an extended period of time, contact your local sales office.
When handling the servo amplifier, be careful about the edged parts such as corners of the servo
amplifier.
The servo amplifier must be installed in the metal cabinet.
When fumigants that contain halogen materials such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine are used
for disinfecting and protecting wooden packaging from insects, they cause malfunction when entering our
products. Please take necessary precautions to ensure that remaining materials from fumigant do not
enter our products, or treat packaging with methods other than fumigation (heat method). Additionally,
disinfect and protect wood from insects before packing products.
(2) Wiring
CAUTION
Wire the equipment correctly and securely. Otherwise, the servo motor may operate unexpectedly.
Do not install a power capacitor, surge killer, or radio noise filter (FR-BIF option) on the servo amplifier
output side.
To avoid a malfunction, connect the wires to the correct phase terminals (U, V, and W) of the servo
amplifier and servo motor.

A - 4
CAUTION
Connect the servo amplifier power output (U, V, and W) to the servo motor power input (U, V, and W)
directly. Do not let a magnetic contactor, etc. intervene. Otherwise, it may cause a malfunction.

When the cable is not tightened enough to the terminal block, the cable or terminal block may generate
heat because of the poor contact. Be sure to tighten the cable with specified torque.
Connecting an encoder for different axis to the CN2A, CN2B, or CN2C connector may cause a
malfunction.
Connecting a servo motor for different axis to the CNP3A, CNP3B, or CN3C connector may cause a
malfunction.
(3) Test run and adjustment
CAUTION
Before operation, check the parameter settings. Improper settings may cause some machines to perform
unexpected operation.
Never adjust or change the parameter values extremely as it will make operation unstable.
Do not close to moving parts at servo-on status.
(4) Usage
CAUTION
Provide an external emergency stop circuit to ensure that operation can be stopped and power switched
off immediately.
Do not disassemble, repair, or modify the equipment.
Before resetting an alarm, make sure that the run signal of the servo amplifier is off in order to prevent a
sudden restart. Otherwise, it may cause an accident.
Use a noise filter, etc. to minimize the influence of electromagnetic interference. Electromagnetic
interference may be given to the electronic equipment used near the servo amplifier.
Burning or breaking a servo amplifier may cause a toxic gas. Do not burn or break it.
Use the servo amplifier with the specified servo motor.

A - 5
CAUTION
The electromagnetic brake on the servo motor is designed to hold the motor shaft and should not be
used for ordinary braking.
For such reasons as service life and mechanical structure (e.g. where a ball screw and the servo motor
are coupled via a timing belt), the electromagnetic brake may not hold the motor shaft. To ensure safety,
install a stopper on the machine side.
(5) Corrective actions
CAUTION
When it is assumed that a hazardous condition may occur due to a power failure or product malfunction,
use a servo motor with an electromagnetic brake or external brake to prevent the condition.
Configure an electromagnetic brake circuit so that it is activated also by an external EMG stop switch.

Contacts must be opened
with the EMG stop switch.
Contacts must be opened when CALM (AND
malfunction) or MBR (Electromagnetic brake
interlock) turns off.

When any alarm has occurred, eliminate its cause, ensure safety, and deactivate the alarm before
restarting operation.
Provide an adequate protection to prevent unexpected restart after an instantaneous power failure.
(6) Maintenance, inspection and parts replacement
CAUTION
With age, the electrolytic capacitor of the servo amplifier will deteriorate. To prevent a secondary
accident due to a malfunction, it is recommend that the electrolytic capacitor be replaced every 10 years
when it is used in general environment. Please contact your local sales office.
When using a servo amplifier whose power has not been turned on for a long time, contact your local
sales office.
(7) General instruction
To illustrate details, the equipment in the diagrams of this Instruction Manual may have been drawn
without covers and safety guards. When the equipment is operated, the covers and safety guards must
be installed as specified. Operation must be performed in accordance with this Specifications and
Instruction Manual.
