Safety Precautions
13
AMR Controller User's Guide (I650)

Warnings
WARNING
Disassembly and Dropping
Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify the product in any way. Doing so may
result in malfunction or fire.
Installation
Always connect to a ground of 100 Ω or less when installing the product.
Ensure that installation and post-installation checks of the product are performed by per-
sonnel in charge who possess a thorough understanding of the machinery to be instal-
led.
Fail-safe Measures
Provide safety measures in external circuits to ensure safety in the system if an abnor-
mality occurs due to malfunction of the product or due to other external factors affecting
operation. Not doing so may result in serious accidents due to incorrect operation.
Emergency stop circuits, interlock circuit, limit circuits, and similar safety measures must
be provided in external control circuits.
Unintended behavior may occur when an error occurs in internal memory of the product.
As a countermeasure for such problems, external safety measures must be provided to
ensure safe operation of the system.
The use of an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) allows normal operation to continue
even if a momentary power failure occurs, possibly resulting in the reception of an erro-
neous signal from an external device affected by the momentary power failure. Take ex-
ternal fail-safe measures. Where necessary, monitor the power supply voltage on the
system for external devices and use it as an interlock condition.
Safety Precautions
14 AMR Controller User's Guide (I650)

Actual Operation
Security setting adjustments should only be performed by the engineer in charge that
possesses a thorough understanding of the security settings. Selecting non-recommend-
ed security settings can put your system at risk.
Changing BIOS information is only allowed for the engineer in charge that possesses a
thorough understanding of the BIOS settings because it can change the behavior of the
product.
Safety Precautions
15
AMR Controller User's Guide (I650)

Cautions
CAUTION
Wiring
The product has an internal non-isolated DC power supply. Circuit ground (0 VDC) and
frame ground are connected together. When connecting a non-isolated device or a non-
isolated interface to the product, take appropriate actions to avoid communication fail-
ures or damage to the mentioned ports.

Never ground the 24 VDC side of the power supply. This may cause a short circuit.
Safety Precautions
16 AMR Controller User's Guide (I650)

Precautions for Safe Use
Disassembly, Dropping, Mounting, Installation and Storage
• Do not drop the product or subject it to abnormal vibration or shock. Doing so may result in product
malfunction or burning.
• When unpacking, check carefully for any external scratches or other damages. Also, shake the
product gently and check for any abnormal sound.
• Always use the devices specified in the relevant manual.
• The product must be installed in a control panel.
• Always install equipment that is included in the product specifications. Not doing so may result in
failure or malfunction.
• Install the product in the correct orientation and temperature according to the specifications in the
manual to prevent overheating. Not doing so may result in malfunction.
• When connecting peripheral devices to the product, ensure sufficient countermeasures against
noise and static electricity during installation of the peripheral devices.
• Always use the CFast Card slot cover to fully insert the CFast Card. Attempting to fully insert the
CFast Card using your finger can result in injury of your finger due to sharp edges around the CFast
Card bay.
Wiring
• Follow the instructions in the manual to correctly perform connector wiring and insertion. Double-
check all wiring and connector insertion before turning ON the power supply.
• Always ensure connectors, cables, PCIe Cards and Storage devices are completely locked in place
to prevent accidental disconnection.
• Before you connect a computer to the product, disconnect the power supply plug of the computer
from the AC outlet. Also, if the computer has an FG terminal, make the connections so that the FG
terminal has the same electrical potential as the product. A difference in electrical potential between
the computer and the product may cause failure or malfunction.
• Do not bend or pull the cables beyond normal limit. Do not place heavy objects on top of the cables
or other wiring lines. Doing so may break the cables.
• Always use power supply wires with sufficient wire diameters to prevent voltage drop and burning.
Make sure that the current capacity of the wire is sufficient. Otherwise, excessive heat may be gen-
erated. When cross-wiring terminals, the total current for all the terminals will flow in the wire. When
wiring cross-overs, make sure that the current capacity of each of the wires is not exceeded.
• Be sure that all mounting bracket screws and cable connector screws are tightened to the torque
specified in the relevant manuals. The loose screws may result in fire or malfunction.
• Use crimp terminals for wiring.
• For an NY Monitor Link connection, always follow the cable type and connection method specifica-
tions in the manual. Otherwise, communications may be faulty.
Wireless
• Follow the instructions in the manual to correctly perform connector wiring and insertion. Double-
check all wiring and connector insertion before turning ON the power supply.
Precautions for Safe Use
17
AMR Controller User's Guide (I650)

• Always ensure the wireless connectors are completely locked in place to prevent accidental discon-
nection.
• Use crimp terminals for wiring.
• For an NY Monitor Link connection, always follow the cable type and connection method specifica-
tions in the manual. Otherwise, communications may be faulty.
• The Radio Law prohibits outdoor use of wireless LAN in IEEE802.11a standard (5GHz band).
• Do not use it close to a person with a cardiac pacemaker. Electromagnetic interference may affect it,
putting his/her life at risk.
• Do not use it close to medical equipment. Electromagnetic interference may affect the cardiac pace-
maker to cause loss of human life.
• Do not use it close to an electric oven. Electromagnetic interference may affect the medical equip-
ment to cause loss of human life.
• Radio device in this product has been certified by the Radio Law. Do not disassemble or modify this
product.
Caution for Radio Interference with 2.4GHz Wireless LAN
Take the following precautions for communication by 2.4GHz (IEEE802.11b/g) wireless LAN.
Within this product's frequency range, industrial, scientific, and medical equipment, such as electric
oven, as well as RFID premises radio stations (license required) and specified low power radio station
and ham radio station (license not required) used in factory manufacturing lines are operated.
• Before using this device, confirm that no RFID premises radio station, specified low power radio sta-
tion, or ham radio station is operating close to it.
• If this product caused radio interference with an RFID premises radio station, immediately change
the product's frequency or stop radio emission, and contact OMRON representative for actions to
take to prevent cross talk.
FCC/IC WARNING
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the equipment. In addition, users should also be cautioned to take note
that high-power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) of the bands
5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and these radars could cause interference and/or damage to
LE-LAN devices.
NOTICE
