In this user’s manual, the following precautions and signal words are used to provide information to ensure the
safe use of the 3G3AX-DI Board.
The information provided here is vital to safety. Strictly observe the precautions provided.
Meanings of Signal Words
Alert Symbols in This Document
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, is likely to result in serious injury or may result in death.
Additionally there may be severe property damage.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

WARNING
CAUTION
Turn off the power supply and implement wiring correctly.
Not doing so may result in a serious injury due to an electric shock.
Wiring work must be carried out only by qualified personnel.
Not doing so may result in a serious injury due to an electric shock.
Do not touch the surface of the DI Board or terminals, and do not remove the signal wire or the DI
Board while the power is being supplied.
Doing so may result in a serious injury due to an electric shock or fire.
Turn off the input power of the Inverter and wait for more than 10 minutes before putting on or taking
off the DI Board, changing the setting / wiring or conducting inspection.
Not doing so may result in a serious injury due to an electric shock.
Place covers on the openings or take other precautions to make sure that no metal objects such as
cutting bits or lead wire scraps go inside when installing the DI Board and wiring.
Install a stop motion device to ensure safety. Not doing so might result in a minor injury.
Do not dismantle, repair or modify the product. Doing so may result in an injury.

Precautions for Safe Use
Precautions for Safe Use
Installation and Storage
Do not store or use the product in the following places.
• Locations subject to direct sunlight.
• Locations subject to ambient temperature exceeding the specifications.
• Locations subject to relative humidity exceeding the specifications.
• Locations subject to condensation due to severe temperature fluctuations.
• Locations subject to corrosive or flammable gases.
• Locations subject to exposure to combustibles.
• Locations subject to dust (especially iron dust) or salt.
• Locations subject to exposure to water, oil, or chemicals.
• Locations subject to shock or vibration.
Transportation, Installation, and Wiring
Observe the following instructions during transportation, installation, and wiring.
• Do not drop or apply a strong impact on the product. Doing so may result in damaged parts or
malfunction.
• Connect the DI Board to the Inverter tightly with the provided fixing screws.
Tighten securely the terminal screws for the signal wire on the DI Board.
Tightening torque: 0.9 N⋅m (1.0 N⋅m max.)
• Be sure to use the provided ferrite cores. Fix the ferrite cores on the wire or take appropriate
measures so that the ferrite cores will not cover the shield coating of the wire. Not doing so may
cause the Inverter to malfunction.
• Fix the shielding wire properly or take appropriate measures so that the wire will not be weighed
down.
Not doing so may result in shielding wire breakage due to the weight of the ferrite cores.
• Check whether the motor rotation direction is correct, and unusual sound or vibration occurs
during operation.
Maintenance and Inspection
Be sure to confirm safety before conducting maintenance, inspection or parts replacement.

The DI Board (3G3AX-DI) is an optional board for the 3G3RX Series Inverter.
With this board, you can digitally input the set frequency, acceleration time setting, deceleration time
setting, torque setting and position (orientation stop position) setting.
Note that the PG Board (3G3AX-PG) is required separately for position control through position set-
ting inputs.

2-1 Mounting the DI Board
Securely mount the DI Board as shown below.
Place the four holes (in the corners) and the connector (on the back) of the DI Board on Board port 1
(or port 2) correctly with the two holes on the guideposts and the other two on the screw holes.
To mount the DI Board, be sure to tightly fix it with the two provided fixing screws after putting in
place the connector securely. Otherwise, the Inverter will not operate properly.
