SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
(Always read these precautions before using this equipment)
Before using this product, please read this manual and the relevant manuals introduced in this manual
carefully and pay full attention to safety to handle the product correctly.
Note that these precautions apply only to this product. For the safety precautions of the programmable
controller system, please read the User's Manual for the CPU module used.
In this manual, the safety instructions are ranked as ' WARNING' and ' CAUTION'.
Note that the CAUTION level may lead to a serious consequence according to the circumstances.
Always follow the instructions of both levels because they are important to personal safety.
Please save this manual to make it accessible when required and always forward it to the end user.
[Design precautions]
WARNING
Configure safety circuits external to the programmable controller to ensure that the entire system
operates safely even when a fault occurs in the external power supply or the programmable
controller. Failure to do so may result in an accident due to an incorrect output or malfunction.
For the operating status of each station after a communication failure, refer to relevant manuals for
the network. Erroneous outputs and malfunctions may lead to accidents. Not doing so can cause an
accident due to false output or malfunction.
To maintain the safety of the programmable controller system against unauthorized access from
external devices via the network, take appropriate measures. To maintain the safety against
unauthorized access via the Internet, take measures such as installing a firewall.
CAUTION
Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions,
resulting in death or severe injury.
Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions,
resulting in medium or slight personal injury or physical damage.
WARNING

A- 2
[Design precautions]
WARNING
When changing data of the running programmable controller from a peripheral connected to the
CPU module or from a personal computer connected to an intelligent function module or special
function module, configure an interlock circuit in the sequence program to ensure that the entire
system will always operate safely. For program modification and operating status change, read
relevant manuals carefully and ensure the safety before operation.
Especially in the above mentioned control operations that are performed from an external device to a
remote programmable controller, any problems on the programmable controller side may not be
dealt with promptly due to abnormal data communication. To prevent this, configure an interlock
circuit in the sequence program, and determine corrective actions to be taken between the external
device and CPU module in case of a communication failure.
Do not write any data in the "system area" of the buffer memory in the intelligent function module.
Also, do not use any "use prohibited" signals as an output signal from the programmable controller
CPU to the intelligent function module.
Doing so may cause malfunction of the programmable controller system.
CAUTION
Do not bundle the control wires and the communication cables with the main circuit and the power
wires, and do not install them close to each other. They should be installed at least 100 mm (3.94 in.)
away from each other. Failure to do so may generate noise that may cause malfunctions.
During registering each setting, do not power OFF the mounted module or reset the programmable
controller CPU.
Otherwise, data in the CompactFlash card will be undefined. Therefore, resetting and re-registering
data are required.
This may also cause a module failure or malfunctions.

A- 3
[Installation precautions]
CAUTION
Use the programmable controller in an environment that meets the general specifications in the
user's manual for the CPU module used. Using the programmable controller in any other operating
environments may cause electric shocks, fires or malfunctions, or may damage or degrade the
module.
While pressing the installation lever located at the bottom of module, insert the module fixing tab into
the fixing hole in the base unit until it stops. Then, securely mount the module with the fixing hole as
a supporting point.
If the module is not installed properly, it may cause the module to malfunction, fail or fall off.
Secure the module with screws especially when it is used in an environment where constant
vibrations may occur.
Be sure to tighten the screws using the specified torque. If the screws loose, it may cause the
module to short-circuit, malfunction or fall off. If the screws are tightened excessively, it may damage
the screws and cause the module to short-circuit, malfunction or fall off.
Before mounting/dismounting the module, be sure to shut off all phases of external power supply
used by the system.
Failure to do so may cause product damage.
Do not directly touch any conductive part or electronic component of the module.
This may cause the module to malfunction or fail.
Push the CompactFlash card into the CompactFlash card slot and install it securely.
After installing the CompactFlash card, check that it is inserted securely.
Failure to do so may cause malfunctions due to poor contact.

[Wiring precautions]
CAUTION
Connectors for external connection must be crimped or pressed with the tool specified by the
manufacturer, or must be correctly soldered.
If the connection is incomplete, it may cause the module to short circuit, catch fire, or malfunction.
Install connectors securely to modules.
Make sure to place the communication and power cables to be connected to the module in a duct or
fasten them using a clamp. If the cables are not placed in a duct or fastened with a clamp, their
positions may be unstable or moved, and they may be pulled inadvertently.
This may damage the module and the cables or cause the module to malfunction because of faulty
cable connections.
When disconnecting the communication and power cables from the module, do not pull the cables
by hand.
When disconnecting a cable with a connector, hold the connector to the module by hand and pull it
out to remove the cable.
When disconnecting a cable connected to a terminal block, loosen the screws on the terminal block
first before removing the cable. If a cable is pulled while being connected to the module, it may
cause the module to malfunction or damage the module and the cable.
Be careful not to let any foreign matter such as wire chips get inside the module. They may cause
fire, as well as breakdowns and malfunctions of the module.
A protective sheet is pasted on the upper part of the module in order to prevent foreign matter such
as wire chips to get inside the module while wiring.
Do not remove this protective sheet during wiring work.
However, be sure to remove the protective sheet before operating the module to allow heat radiation
during operation.

[Startup and maintenance precautions]
[Operating precautions]
[Disposal precautions]
WARNING
Do not touch any terminal during power distribution.
Doing so may cause malfunctions.
Always switch OFF the external supply power used by the system in all phases before cleaning or
retightening terminal screws.
Failure to do so may cause a failure or malfunction of the module.
If the screws loose, it may cause the module to short-circuit, malfunction or fall off.
If the screws are tightened excessively, it may damage the screws and cause the module to short-
circuit, malfunction or fall off.
CAUTION
Do not disassemble or transform the module.
Doing so may cause a failure, malfunctions, personal injuries, and/or a fire.
Before mounting/dismounting the module, be sure to shut off all phases of external power supply
used by the system.
Failure to do so may cause product damage.
Do not install/remove the module to/from the base unit more than 50 times after the first use of the
product. (IEC 61131-2 compliant)
Failure to do so may cause malfunction.
Before handling a module, touch a grounded metal object to discharge the static electricity from your
body.
Failure to do so may cause a failure or malfunction of the module.
WARNING
Ensure safety before controlling a running programmable controller (e.g. data modification).
Do not write any data in the "system area" of the buffer memory in the intelligent function module.
Also, do not use any "use prohibited" signals as an output signal from the programmable controller
CPU to the intelligent function module.
Doing so may cause malfunction of the programmable controller system.
CAUTION
Dispose of this product as an industrial waste.
