Mitsubishi Electric C80 Series Setup guide

Introduction
This manual covers the items required for installing, connecting and setting up the C80.
Read this manual thoroughly and understand the product's functions and performance before starting to use.
This manual is written on the assumption that all optional functions are added, but the actually delivered device may
not have all functions.
The unit names, cable names and various specifications are subject to change without notice. Please confirm these
before placing an order.
Be sure to keep this manual always at hand.
Notes on Reading This Manual
(1) This manual explains general parameters as viewed from the NC.
For information about each machine tool, refer to manuals issued from the machine tool builder.
If the descriptions relating to "restrictions" and "allowable conditions" conflict between this manual and the
machine tool builder's instruction manual, the later has priority over the former.
(2) This manual is intended to contain as much descriptions as possible even about special operations.
The operations to which no reference is made in this manual should be considered "impossible".
For items described as "Restrictions" or "Usable State" in this manual, the instruction manual issued by
the machine tool builder takes precedence over this manual.
Items that are not described in this manual must be interpreted as "not possible".
This manual is written on the assumption that all the applicable functions are included.
Some of them, however, may not be available for your NC system.
Refer to the specifications issued by the machine tool builder before use.
For information about each machine tool, refer to manuals issued from the machine tool builder.
Some screens and functions may differ depending on each NC system (or version), and some functions
may not be possible. Please confirm the specifications before starting to use.
Do not connect NC system to the Internet-connected network.
To maintain the safety of the NC system against unauthorized access from external devices via the
network, take appropriate measures.
Also refer to the manuals on "Manual List" as necessary.
CAUTION

Precautions for Safety
Always read this manual and enclosed documents before installation, operation, maintenance and inspection to
ensure correct usage. Thoroughly understand the basics, safety information and precautions of the devices before
using.
This manual classifies the safety precautions into "DANGER", "WARNING" and "CAUTION".
Note that the items under " CAUTION" could lead to serious consequences as well depending on the situation.
All the items are important and must always be observed.
The following sings indicate prohibition and compulsory.
The meaning of each pictorial sing is as follows.
DANGER
When the user could be subject to imminent fatalities or serious injuries if handling is mistaken.
WARNING
When the user could be subject to fatalities or serious injuries if handling is mistaken.
CAUTION
When the user could be subject to injuries or the property could be damaged if handling is mistaken.
This sign indicates prohibited behavior (must not do).
For example, indicates "Keep fire away".
This sign indicated a thing that is pompously (must do).
For example, indicates "it must be grounded".

KEEP FIRE AWAY General instruction Earth ground

Mitsubishi CNC is designed and manufactured solely for applications to machine tools to be used for industrial
purposes.
Do not use this product in any applications other than those specified above, especially those which are
substantially influential on the public interest or which are expected to have significant influence on human lives or
properties.
1. Items related to prevention of electric shocks
For Safe Use
WARNING
Do not open or remove the front cover while the power is ON or during operation. The high voltage
terminals and charged sections will be exposed, and this could result in electric shocks.
Do not remove the front cover even when the power is OFF, except for the wiring works or periodic
inspections. The inside of the controller and drive unit are charged, and this could result in electric shocks.
Always wait at least 15 minutes after turning the power OFF. Then, check the voltage with a tester, etc.,
before wiring works, inspections or connecting with peripheral devices. Failure to observe this could result
in electric shocks.
Earth ground the controller, drive unit and motor according to the local laws. (In Japan, ground the 200V
Series input products with Class C or higher protective grounding and the 400V Series input with Class D
or higher protective grounding.)
All wiring works, maintenance and inspections must be carried out by a qualified technician. Failure to
observe this could result in electric shocks. Contact your nearby Service Center or Service Station for
replacing parts and servicing.
Wire the controller, drive unit and motor after installation. Failure to observe this could result in electric
shocks.
Do not operate the switches with wet hands. Failure to observe this could result in electric shocks.
Do not damage, apply excessive stress, place heavy things on or sandwich the cables. Failure to observe
this could result in electric shocks.
Insulate the power lead using a fixed terminal block. Failure to observe this could result in electric shocks.
Completely turn off the all lines of the power supply externally before wiring. Not completely turning off all
power could result in electric shock or damage to the product.
When turning on the power supply or operating the module after wiring, be sure that the module's terminal
covers are correctly attached.
Not attaching the terminal cover could result in electric shock.

2. Items related to prevention of fire
3. Items related to prevention of bodily injury or property damage
CAUTION
Install the controller, drive unit, motor and regenerative resistor on non-combustible material. Installation
directly on or near combustible materials could result in fires.
If any malfunction in the unit is observed, shut off the power at the unit’s power supply side. Continuous
flow of large current could result in fires.
Install an appropriate no fuse breaker (NFB) and contactor (MC) on the power input section of the drive unit
and configure the sequence that shuts the power off upon drive unit’s emergency stop or alarm.
When a breaker is shared for multiple power supply units, the breaker may not function upon short-circuit
failure in a small capacity unit. Do not share a breaker for multiple units as this is dangerous.
Incorrect wiring and connections could cause the devices to damage or burn.
DANGER
When transporting or installing a built-in IPM spindle or linear servomotor, be careful so that your hand or
property will not be trapped in the motors or other metal objects. Also keep the devices with low magnetic
tolerance away from the product.
CAUTION
Do not apply voltages to the connectors or terminals other than voltages indicated in the connection and
setup manual for the controller or specifications manual for the drive unit. Failure to observe this could
cause bursting, damage, etc.
Incorrect connections could cause the devices to rupture or damage, etc. Always connect the cables to the
indicated connectors or terminals.
Incorrect polarity (+ -) could cause the devices to rupture or damage, etc.
Persons wearing medical devices, such as pacemakers, must stay away from this unit. The
electromagnetic waves could adversely affect the medical devices.
Fins on the rear of the unit, regenerative resistor and motor, etc., will be hot during operation and for a while
after the power has been turned OFF. Do not touch or place the parts and cables, etc. close to these
sections. Failure to observe this could result in burns.
Do not enter the machine’s movable range during automatic operation. Keep your hands, feet or face away
from the spindle during rotation.
