A-2
[DESIGN PRECAUTIONS] CAUTION
zDo not bundle the control lines or communication cables with the main circuit
or power lines, or bring them close to each other.
The distance of 100mm(3.9inch) or more should be ensured.
Failure to do so cause malfunctions due to noise.
zDo not power off a station where this module is mounted and do not reset the
PLC CPU while storing the settings into the standard ROM of the module
using a Web browser.
This may make the data unstable within the standard ROM and require
resetting and re-storing, or it may cause a failure or malfunctions of the
module.
[INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS] CAUTION
zUse the PLC in the environment specified in the user's manual of the CPU
module.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock, fires, malfunctions, product
deterioration or damage.
zWhen mounting the module, fully insert the module fixing projection into the
corresponding fixing hole on the base unit while pressing the module fixing
lever at the bottom of the module.
Incorrect mounting may cause malfunctions, failures or a fall of the module.
The module should be secured with screws in an environment of frequent
vibration.
zBe sure to shut off all phases of the external power supply before mounting
or removing the module.
Failure to do so may damage the module.
zTighten the screws within the specified torque range.
Loose tightening may cause a fall, short circuits, or malfunctions.
Overtightening may damage the screws and/or the module, resulting in a fall
of the module, short circuits or malfunctions.
zDo not directly touch the conductive part or electronic components of the
module.
This may cause malfunctions or a failure of the module.
zFor connector wiring, correctly press, pressure-weld or solder theconnecting
part by using the tool specified by the manufacturer.
Poor connection may cause short circuits, fires or malfunctions.
zBe sure to set the CompactFlashTM card by pressing it into the
CompactFlashTM card slot. Confirm it is completely set.
Poor contact may lead to malfunctions.

A-3
[WIRING PRECAUTIONS] CAUTION
zBe sure to fix communication cables and power cables to the module by
ducts or clamps.
Failure to do so may cause damage of the module or the cables due to
accidental pull or unintentional shifting of the cables, or malfunctions due to
poor contact of the cable.
zConnect the connectors to the module securely.
zTighten the terminal screws within the specified torque range.
Loose tightening may result in a fall, short circuits or malfunctions.
Overtightening may cause damage to the screw and/or the module, resulting
in a fall, short circuits or malfunctions.
zDo not hold the communication cable by hand when pulling it out from the
module.
Be sure to hold the connector by hand, when removing the cable with a
connector from the module.
Failure to do so may cause malfunctions or damage to the module or cable.
zBe careful not to let foreign matter such as dust or wire chips get inside the
module. This may cause a fire, failure or malfunctions.
zA protection label is attached to cover the upper part of a module to prevent
the entry of foreign matter. Do not remove the label during wiring. However,
be sure to remove it for heat dissipation during system operation.
[TRANSPORTATION PRECAUTIONS]
CAUTION
zWhen transporting lithium batteries, make sure to treat them based on the
transport regulations. (Refer to Chapter 8 for details of the controlled
models.)

5. External Wiring
5.1 Connecting to the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX
Use the twisted pair cable that meets IEEE802.3 10-BASE-T/100BASE-TX
standards when connecting to the 10BASE-T/10BASE-TX interface.
(1) For 100Mbps
Use either of the following cables.
(a) Unshielded twisted pair cable (UTP cable), Category 5
(b) Shielded twisted pair cable (STP cable), Category 5
(2) For 10Mbps
Use either of the following cables.
(a) Unshielded twisted pair cable (UTP cable), Category 3 (4,5)
(b) Shielded twisted pair cable (STP cable), Category 3 (4,5)
TIP
During the high speed communication (100Mbps) via 100BASE-TX
connection, a communication error may occur due to the effect of high
frequency noise generated from the device other than PLC, depending on the
installation environment.
Take the following countermeasures on the Web server module side to
eliminate the effect of high frequency noise.
(1) Wiring
yDo not bundle thetwisted pair cables with the main circuit or power cables
or bring them close to each other.
yMake sure to place the twisted pair cable in a duct.
(2) Cable
yIn the environment where the cable is susceptible to noise, use the
shielded twisted pair cable (STP cable).
(3) 10Mbps communication
yConnect the 10Mbps-compatible device with Web server module, and
then transmit the data to the device at transmission speed of 10Mbps.
