Before You Start
Installation
environment Do not use the unit where it will be exposed to the following:
DDirect sunlight and ambient temperatures
outside the range of 0_C to 55_C/32_F to
131_F.
DAmbient humidity outside the range of 30% to
85% RH and sudden temperature changes
causing condensation.
DInflammable or corrosive gas.
DExcessive vibration or shock.
DExcessive airborne dust or metal particles.
DWater in any form including spray or mist.
DBenzine, paint thinner, alcohol or other
organic solvents or strong alkaline solutions
such as ammonia or caustic soda.
DInfluence from power transmission lines, high
voltage equipment, power cables, power
equipment, radio transmitters, or any other
equipment that would generate high switching
surges.
Static electricity
DIn dry locations, excessive static electricity
can cause problems. Before touching the unit,
always touch a grounded piece of metal in
order to discharge static electricity.
Cleaning
DDo not use thinner–based cleaners because
they deform the unit case and cause the
colors to fade.
Power supplies
DAn insulated power supply with an internal
protective circuit should be used. The power
supply for the FP0 control unit operation is a
non-insulated circuit, so if an incorrect
voltage is directly applied, the internal circuit
may be damaged or destroyed. If using a
power supply without a protective circuit,
power should be supplied through a
protective element such as a fuse.

Power supply
sequence
DHave the power supply sequence such that
the power supply of the FP0 control unit turns
OFF before the power supply for I/O.
DIf the power supply for I/O is turned OFF
before the power supply of FP0 control unit,
the FP0 control unit will detect the input
fluctuations and may begin an unscheduled
operation.
Before turning
ON the power When turning ON the power for the first time, be sure to take the
precautions given below.
DWhen carrying out assembly, check to make
sure that there are no scraps of wiring,
particularly conductive fragments, adhering to
the unit.
DVerify that the power supply wiring, I/O wiring,
and power supply voltage are all correct.
DSufficiently tighten the installation screws and
terminal screws.
DSet the mode switch to PROG. mode.

Important Symbols
The following symbols are used in this manual:
Whenever the warning triangle is used, especially important
safety instructions are given. If they are not adhered to, the
results could be:
personal injury and/or
significant damage to instruments or their contents, e.g.

1.3 Expansion with Units
Be sure to check that the units are added according to the restrictions below.
Notes A maximum of three expansion I/O units, analog I/O units, or
I/O link units can be connected to one control unit.
Maximumpossible expansion: total of 3 units
Control unit
(CPU) First
expansion unit Second expansion unit Third expansion unit
There are no restrictions on the combination of different types
of control and expansion units.
A combination of relay output types and transistor output
types is also possible.
The expansion unit can be attached directly to the control unit
easily. Special expansion cables, backplanes, and so forth,
are unnecessary as the expansion unit employs a stacking
system that uses expansion connector and expansion hooks
on the surface of the unit itself.
Controllable I/O Points

output type as CPU Expansion unit is a transistor output type

Notes 1) When FP programmers (AFP1112A/AFP1114) are used, reading
and writing of the following FP0 instructions are not possible
and the functions cannot be used.
–High–speed counter function (related
instructions: F166/F167)
–Pulse output function (related instructions:
F168/F169)
–PWM output function (related instruction: F170)
–1ms unit timer instruction (TML)
