●SAFETY PRECAUTIONS●
This manual describes the name of each part, outside dimensions and
specifications of the CC-Link/LT master block for Mitsubishi Programmable
Controller (PLC).
For the design and construction of the CC-Link/LT system, refer to the CC-
Link/LT Master Block Users Manual.
These ●SAFETY PRECAUTIONS●are classified into two categories:
"DANGER" and "CAUTION".
Depending on certain circumstances, procedures indicated by
may also be linked to serious ramifications.
It is important to follow the directions for usage.
[DESIGN PRECAUTIONS]
[INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS]
Procedures which may lead to dangerous conditions or
cause death or serious injury if not carried out properly.
Procedures which may lead to dangerous conditions or
cause minor to medium injury, or physical damage, if
not carried out properly.
DANGER
CAUTION
CAUTION
• Construct an interlock circuit in the sequence program so that the
system works correctly using the communication information when an
error in the data link occurs.
If such an interlock circuit is not provided, accidents may be caused by
erroneous output or malfunction.
• When a remote I/O unit fails, inputs/outputs may randomly become ON
or OFF, therefore build an external monitoring circuit that will monitor any
input signals that could cause a serious accident.
Accident may be caused by erroneous output or malfunction.
• Use the master block without applying any force on the master block and
the flat cable dedicated to the CC-Link/LT.
Otherwise, such cables may break or fail.
• Shut down all phases of the power supply outside the master block, then
attach or remove the master block. If the power is not disconnected at all
phases an electric shock or serious damage to the product may occur.
DANGER
CAUTION
DANGER
• Use the master block in the environment described in this manual.
If the master block is used in an improper environment, then electrical
shock, fire, malfunction, product damage or product deterioration may
occur.
• Securely fix the master block with DIN rail or mounting screws. When
using mounting screws, securely tighten them within the specified torque
range.
If the screws are too loose, the module may detach from its installed
position, short circuit, or malfunction. If the screws are too tight, the
screws may be damaged, which may cause the module to detach from
its installed position or short circuit.

●
This notification does not guarantee that an entire mechanical module produced
in accordance with the contents of the notification comply with the following
standards. Compliance to EMC standards of the entire mechanical module
should be checked by the user / manufacturer.
Standards with which this product complies
Type : Programmable Controller (Open Type Equipment)
Models : Products manufactured from February 1st, 2003.
For more details please contact the local Mitsubishi Electric sales site.
- Notes For compliance to EMC regulation.
It is necessary to install the FX2N-64CL-M in a shielded metal control panel.
• Pay attention that foreign objects such as cuttings or wiring chips do not enter
the master block. It may cause fire, product failure or malfunction.
• During installation and wiring works, adhere dust-proof sheets supplied
together with the master block on the sides of the master block so that foreign
objects such as cutting chips and wiring chips do not enter the inside.
Otherwise, foreign objects may cause fire, failure or malfunction.
• Before operating the system, remove the dust-proof sheets so that heat can
be released. It may cause fire, product failure or malfunction.
CAUTION
• Shut down all power supplies, before starting the wiring work. If the power is
not disconnected from all sources an electric shock or serious product
damage may occur.
• CC-Link/LT network wiring uses the flat cable dedicated to the CC-Link/LT
specified by CC-Link Partner Association (CLPA), and perform wiring in
accordance with the specifications described in this manual.
If any cable other than the dedicated flat cable is used or if wiring is
performed in a method not conforming to the specifications, normal data
transmission cannot be assured.
• Do not bind the flat cable dedicated to CC-Link/LT together with major circuits
or power cables. Keep the dedicated flat cable away from major circuits and
power cables by 100 mm (3.93") or more.
It may cause malfunction due to noise interference.
• Accommodate the flat cable dedicated to CC-Link/LT inside a duct, or fix it
with clamps.
If the dedicated flat cable is loose or is pulled for movement or carelessness,
the master block and the dedicated flat cable may be damaged or
malfunction due to imperfect connection.
• Correctly wire the master block while confirming the rated voltage and
terminal arrangement of the master block. It may cause fire or product failure.
• Hold the connector area when disconnecting the flat cable dedicated to CC-
Link/LT from the master block.
If the cable area is pulled, the master block or the dedicated cable may be
damaged or malfunction.
• Do not touch the terminals when the power is ON. It may cause an electric
shock or malfunction.
• Make sure to shut down all phases of the power supply outside the master
block before starting cleaning. If all phases of the power supply are not shut
down, the master block may be seriously damaged or malfunction.
• Do not disassemble or modify the master block. Doing so may cause failure,
malfunction, injury, or fire.
• The case of the master block is made of resin. Do not drop or apply strong
impacts to the master block.

3. Handling Cautions
The master block can be attached by way of DIN rail or attached directly
with screws.
The installation procedure in each case is described below.
Use the master block without applying any force on the cable.
3.1 Installation direction
• Do not install the master block on the floor surface, ceiling surface or in
the horizontal direction. If the master block is installed in such a way,
its temperature may rise.
Install the master block vertically on the wall surface as shown in the
figure below.
• Secure a space of 50 mm (1.96") or more between the master block and
other equipment or structure. Keep the master block off high voltage
cables, high voltage equipment and power equipment as much as
possible.
3.2 DIN rail installation
Align the upper DIN rail installation groove in the module with the DIN rail
1), and press the module in that status 2).
When removing the module, pull the hook for installation downwards 3),
then remove the module 4).
DIN rail mounting screw pitch
When installing the module to the DIN rail, tighten the mounting screws at
the pitch of 200 mm (7.87") or less.
3.3 Direct installation
Fix the master block on the panel surface by tightening M4 screws inserted
in two (upper and lower) mounting holes provided on the master block.
Install the module so that a clearance of 1 to 2mm (0.04" to 0.08") is
assured for each module.
4. Connection of External Equipment
Connect the master block to a remote I/O unit or power adapter using the
flat cable and the connector dedicated to CC-Link/LT.
• The connection order of the flat cable dedicated to CC-Link/LT has no
relevance to the station No.
• Make sure to lay out the master block on one side of the trunk line.
• In the CC-Link/LT system, terminating resistors should be connected to
both ends of the trunk line.
At this time, connect the terminating resistor on the master block side to a
position within 200 mm (7.87") from the master block.
• For the point of contact for the flat cable dedicated to CC-Link/LT, the
connector to connect the flat cable and terminating resistors, refer to the
homepage of the CC-Link Partner Association (CLPA) "http://www.cc-
link.org/".
