WARNING
Do not try to disassemble a Unit or touch the terminal block while
the power is ON. Doing this can cause electrical shock.
Make sure that the voltage and current input to the Units are in the
specified ranges. If the voltage and current are not in the specified
ranges, there can be Unit malfunctions or fire.
Turn OFF the I/O power supply to a SmartSlice I/O Unit before you
replace it with the online replacement procedure. If there is external
power to a terminal for a Relay Output Slave, for example, turn OFF
the external power before you replace the SmartSlice I/O Unit. If
you replace a Slave I/O Unit with the power ON, incorrect outputs,
incorrect inputs, or electric shock can occur.

Safety Precautions
xi
Apply safety measures in external circuits (that is, not in the Smart-
Slice I/O Terminal) to keep safety in the system. These measures
must keep safety if a malfunction in the control system or other ex-
ternal factor which has an effect on the control system causes a
problem. Include the items below. Not doing this can cause serious
accidents.
• There must be emergency stop circuits, interlock circuits, limit cir-
cuits, and other safety measures in external control circuits.
• The SmartSlice outputs can stay ON or OFF because of welding
or burning of the output relays, or destruction of the output tran-
sistors. As a countermeasure for such errors, there must be ex-
ternal safety measures to keep safety in the system.
• The SmartSlice I/O Terminal will continue operating when one or
more I/O Units are missing from the SmartSlice I/O Terminal. The
other I/O Units will continue the control operations, including the
control of the outputs. As a countermeasure for such errors, there
must be external safety measures to keep safety in the system.
The CPU Unit refreshes I/O when the program is stopped in PRO-
GRAM mode. Fully make sure that it is safe before changing the
status of bits or words in memory allocated to Output Slaves, Spe-
cial I/O Units, or CPU Bus Units. If you change the bits or words al-
located to a Slave or Unit, you could cause incorrect operation of
the loads connected to the Slave or Unit. The operations below will
change memory status.
• Transferring I/O memory data to the CPU Unit from a Program-
ming Device
• Changing present values in memory from a Programming Device
• Force-setting or force-resetting bits from a Programming Device
• Transferring I/O memory files from a Memory Card or EM file
memory to the CPU Unit
• Transferring I/O memory from a host computer or from a PLC on
a network

Precautions for Safe Usage
xii
Precautions for Safe Usage
• Put a Unit in the special box during transportation. Make sure that the Unit is moved carefully, and
not given too much vibration or shock during transportation.
• Do not let a Unit fall or give it too much vibration or shock. This can cause malfunction or cause
damage to the Unit.
• Install the SmartSlice I/O Terminal correctly on DIN Track.
• Be sure that you correctly lock the terminal block, the communications cable connectors, and other
items with locking devices.
• Correctly connect the Units as this manual shows.
• Interference between the Flat Cables for more than one CompoNet System can cause operation
that is not stable. Keep the Flat Cables for different CompoNet Systems apart by a minimum of
5 mm. Interference can occur for Sheathed Cable or Unsheathed Cable.
• Do not let metal objects enter the Unit when connecting or installing it.
• Connect ferrules to the wires when you connect the wires. Do not connect stranded wires directly
to terminals.
• Use the specified communications cables and connectors.
• Use the correct polarity when connecting the terminals.
• Put the ferrules fully into the holes.
• Do a full check of the terminal block before you attach it.
• Do not bend the cables to more than their normal bending radius or pull on the cables.
• Obey the following precautions when connecting communications cables.
• Keep the communications cables away from the power lines or high-tension lines.
• Do not bend the communications cables with too much force.
• Do not pull on the communications cables with too much force.
• Do not put objects on the communications cables.
• Put the communications cables in ducts.
• If the power supply conditions are bad, install countermeasures to make sure that the power
supply always has the rated voltage.
• You must make interlock circuits, limit circuits, and other safety measures in circuits that are
external to the control system.
• Use the power supply voltage which this manual specifies.
• Make sure that there will be no problems when the Unit changes to fixed allocations for the I/O
Areas before you clear the Registration Table. (You set user remote I/O allocations in the
Registration Table.)
• Do not let the communications distance be higher than the specified value.
• Install circuit breakers and other safety measures to prevent Unit damage which short-circuits in
external wires can cause.
• Install failsafe measures to make sure that the system is safe if disconnected signal lines or short
power interruptions cause incorrect signals.
• Always obey the voltage specifications for power supply connections and I/O jumpers. Incorrect
connections can cause malfunctions.
• Do not apply a voltage or connect a load which is larger than the maximum switch capacity to an
Output Slave.
• Do not apply a voltage which is larger than the rated voltage to an Input Slave.
• Be sure there are no mistakes in connections or switch settings before you turn ON the power
supply.

• Low Voltage Directive
Concepts
EMC Directive
The SmartSlice I/O Terminals are electrical devices which are installed in a machine in application.
The Terminals comply with the EMC Directive. This makes it easier for the machine in which a Ter-
minal is installed to more easily comply with the EMC directive. (See note.)
The EMC-related performance of the OMRON devices which comply with EC Directives changes
with the machine in which they are installed. This includes the configuration, connections, and other
conditions of the machine. The customer must do the checks to make sure that the devices and the
machine conform to EMC standards.
Note:
The applicable EMC (electro-magnetic compatibility) standards are EN 61131-2 and EN 61000-6-2
for EMS (electro-magnetic susceptibility) and EN 61131-2 and EN 61000-6-4 for electro-magnetic
interference. The 10-m regulations apply for radiated emissions.
Low Voltage Directive
Devices which operate at voltages from 50 to 1,000 VAC or 75 to 1,500 VDC must comply with the
related safety requirements. The applicable standard is EN 61131-2.
Complying with EC Directives
The SmartSlice I/O Units comply with EC Directives. These measures are necessary for the ma-
chine containing a SmartSlice I/O Units to comply with the EC Directives.
1. You must install the SmartSlice I/O Units in a control panel.
2. You must use reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power supplies used for the
Unit power supplies, and the I/O power supplies. Make sure that the outputs are stable if a 10-ms
interruption occurs at the input.
We recommend the S82J Power Supply which is made by OMRON. (See note.)
3. The SmartSlice I/O Units which conform to EC Directives conform to the EMI standards (EN
61131-2 (Immunity Zone A), EN 61000-6-2, and EN 61000-6-4). The radiated emission proper-
ties (10-m regulations) can change with the configuration of the control panel, other devices
which are connected to the control panel, connections, and other conditions.
You must make sure that the completed machine complies with EC Directives.
4. Compliance tests were done with I/O wires of a maximum length of 30 m.
Note:
Compliance tests for EMC standards were done with the recommended power supply.
