Notice:
OMRON products are manufactured for use according to proper procedures by a qualified operator
and only for the purposes described in this manual.
The following conventions are used to indicate and classify precautions in this manual. Always heed
the information provided with them. Failure to heed precautions can result in injury to people or dam-
age to property.
!DANGER Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or
serious injury. Additionally, there may be severe property damage.
!WARNING Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury. Additionally, there may be severe property damage.
!Caution Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or
moderate injury, or property damage.
OMRON Product References
All OMRON products are capitalized in this manual. The word “Unit” is also capitalized when it refers to
an OMRON product, regardless of whether or not it appears in the proper name of the product.
The abbreviation “Ch,” which appears in some displays and on some OMRON products, often means
“word” and is abbreviated “Wd” in documentation in this sense.
The abbreviation “PLC” means Programmable Controller. “PC” is used, however, in some Program-
ming Device displays to mean Programmable Controller.
Visual Aids
The following headings appear in the left column of the manual to help you locate different types of
information.
Note Indicates information of particular interest for efficient and convenient opera-
tion of the product.

About Loop Controllers
Loop Control Types, Functional Elements, and Versions
Loop Controller Types There are two types of CS/CJ-series Loop Controller: Separate Loop Control-
lers and Loop Controllers Pre-installed in CPU Units
Loop Controller Functional Elements
• Separate Loop Controllers consist of only the Loop Controller functional ele-
ment (i.e., the Loop Controller element).
• CPU Units with Pre-installed Loop Controller consists of a CPU Unit func-
tional element (i.e., the CPU Unit element) and the Loop Controller func-
tional element (i.e., the Loop Controller element).
Versions The functional elements (i.e., the CPU Unit element and Loop Controller ele-
ment) have versions.
Model Numbers and Functional Elements
The following table lists the Loop Controller product model numbers, the func-
tional element names for the CPU Unit elements and Loop Controller ele-
ments, and the versions of the functional elements.
Note Only Separate Loop Controllers have a unit version for the product model.
CPU Units with Pre-installed Loop Controllers do not have a unit version for
the product model.

vii
Notation in this Manual
This manual uses the following notation.
• “Loop Controller” is used as a generic term to refer to the Loop Controllers in
general.
•“LCB@@” is used to refer to specific Loop Controller functional elements.
For example, the Loop Controller function element in a CS1W-LCB05 Loop
Control Board is the LCB05, so “LCB05” is used to refer to the Loop Control-
ler functional element. The Loop Controller function element in a CJ1G-
CPU44P Loop-control CPU Unit is the LCB03, so “LCB03” is used to refer to
the Loop Controller functional element.
• Model numbers are used to refer to specific Loop Controller models.
In the CX-Process Tool Operation Manual for version 3.2 or lower, functional
element names (LCB@@) are given as “Loop Control Board.” In the CX-Pro-
cess Tool Operation Manual for version 4.0 or higher, simply “LCB@@” is
used.

viii
Unit Version Notation on Products
Loop Control Boards A “unit version” has been introduced to manage CPU Units, Special I/O Units,
and Inner Boards in the CS/CJ Series according to differences in functionality
accompanying upgrades. This system applies to Units manufactured since
October 1, 2003. The unit version code is provided on the nameplate of the
product for which unit versions are being managed, as shown below for the
Loop Control Board.
The CX-Process Tool can be used to confirm the unit versions of Loop Control Boards in the Monitor
Run Status Window. After connecting the CX-Process Tool online, select Operation – Monitor Run
Status from the Execute Menu. Confirm the unit version in ITEM099 (MPU/FROM version display)
under from the System Common Block (Block Model 000) in the Monitor Run Status Window.
Version V1.50 and onwards must be indicated.

Functional Element Name and Version Code for Process-control CPU Units and Loop-
control CPU Units The functional element name and functional element version code for Pro-
cess-control CPU Units and Loop-control CPU Units are provided on the
nameplate as shown in the following diagrams.
Process-control CPU Units
Note CPU Unit elements for which no version code is provided are pre-Ver. 2.0
CPU Units.
Loop-control CPU Units
Confirming CPU Unit Element Versions with Support Software
CX-Programmer version 4.0 can be used to confirm the unit version using
either of the following two methods.
• Using the PLC Information
• Using the Unit Manufacturing Information (This method can also be used for
Special I/O Units and CPU Bus Units.)
Note CX-Programmer version 3.3 or lower cannot be used to confirm unit versions.

About this Manual:
This manual describes the installation and operation of the CS-series CS1W-LCB01 and CS1W-
LCB05 Loop Control Boards, CS1D-CPU@@P Process-control CPU Units, and CJ1G-CPU@@P Loop-
control CPU Units, and includes the sections described below.
The CS-series CS1W-LCB01 and CS1W-LCB05 Loop Control Boards, CS1D-CPU@@P Process-con-
trol CPU Units, and CJ1G-CPU@@P Loop-control CPU Units help you build an instrumentation system
comprising multiple loops. A Loop Control Board is installed as an Inner Board in the CPU Unit of a
CS-series PLC (Programmable Controller).
The CS1W-LCB01 and CS1W-LCB05 Loop Control Boards must be installed in CS1-H CPU Units.
They cannot be used in CS1 CPU Units.
Please read this manual and the other manuals related to the CS1W-LCB01 and CS1W-LCB05 Loop
Control Boards, CS1D-CPU@@P Process-control CPU Units, and CJ1G-CPU@@P Loop-control CPU
Units carefully and be sure you understand the information provided before attempting to install and
operate the products. The manuals used with the CS1W-LCB01 and CS1W-LCB05 Loop Control
Boards, CS1D-CPU@@P Process-control CPU Units, and CJ1G-CPU@@P Loop-control CPU Units
are listed in the following table. The suffixes have been omitted from the catalog numbers. Be sure you
are using the most recent version for your area.
