Safety Instructions
Please read this manual and the related documentation thoroughly and familiarize
yourself with the directions before installing, operating, performing inspection and
preventive maintenance. Make sure to follow the directions correctly to ensure
normal operation of the product and your safety.
Environment and Enclosure
ATTENTION
ATTENTION
This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2
industrial environment, in overvoltage Category II applications (as
defined in IEC 60664-1), at altitudes up to 2000 m (6562 ft)
without derating.
This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial
equipment according to IEC/CISPR 11.Without appropriate
precautions, there may be difficulties with electromagnetic
compatibility in residential and other environments due to
conducted and radiated disturbances.
It must be mounted within an enclosure that is suitably designed
for those specific environmental conditions that will be present
and appropriately designed to prevent personal injury resulting
from accessibility to live parts. The enclosure must have suitable
flame-retardant properties to prevent or minimize the spread of
flame, complying with a flame spread rating of 5VA, V2, V1, V0
(or equivalent) if non-metallic. The interior of the enclosure must
be accessible only by the use of a tool. Subsequent sections of
this publication may contain additional information regarding
specific enclosure type ratings that are required to comply with
certain product safety certifications.
NEMA Standard 250 and IEC 60529, as applicable, for
explanations of the degrees of protection provided by different
types of enclosure.

Preventing Electrostatic
Discharge
This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can cause internal
damage and affect normal operation.
Follow these guidelines when you handle this equipment.
WORNING
If you connect or disconnect the serial cable with power applied
to this module or the serial device on the other end of the cable,
an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in
hazardous location installations. Be sure that power is removed
or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
The local programming terminal port is intended for temporary
use only and must not be connected or disconnected unless the
area is assured to be nonhazardous.
The USB port is intended for temporary local programming
purpose only and not intended for permanent connection. If you
connect or disconnect the USB cable with power applied to this
module or any device on the USB network, an electrical arc can
occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location
installation. Be sure that power is removed or the area in
nonhazardous before proceeding.
Exposure to some chemicals may degrade the sealing properties
of materials used in the Relays. It is recommended that the User
periodically inspect these devices for any degradation of
properties and replace the module if degradation is found.
If you insert or remove the plug-in module while main power is
on, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in
hazardous location installation. Be sure that power is removed or
the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
When you connect or disconnect the Removable Terminal Block
(RTB) with field side power applied, an electrical arc can occur.
This could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations.
Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous
before proceeding.

ATTENTION
ATTENTION
Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.
Wear an approved grounding wrist strap.
Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.
Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
Use a static-safe workstation, if available.
Store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging when
not in use.
The USB is not to exceed 3.0 m (9.84 ft).
Do not wire more than 2 conductors on any single terminal.
Do not remove the Removable Terminal Block (RTB) until power is
removed.
Electrostatic discharge can damage semiconductor devices inside
the module. Do not touch the connector pins or other sensitive
area.
To comply with the CE Low Voltage Directive (LVD), this
equipment must be powered from a source compliant with the
following: Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) or Protected Extra Low
Voltage (PELV).
To comply with UL restrictions, this equipment must be powered
from a Class 2 source.
Do not remove the protective debris strips until after the
controller and all other equipment in the panel near the module
are mounted and wired. Remove strips before operating the
controller. Failure to remove strips before operating can cause
overheating.
Be careful when stripping wires. Wire fragments that fall into the
controller could cause damage. Once wiring is complete, make
sure the controller is free of all metal fragments.

I/O Configuration
Introduction
This chapter describes the general matters of Input and Output features of the X8
Series PLC. Each controller comes with a certain amount of embedded I/O, which
is physically located on the controller. The controller also allows for adding
expansion I/O.

1-2 I/O Configuration
Embedded I/O
The X8 Series PLC provide basic I/O that is built into the controller as listed
in the following table. These I/O points are referred to as Embedded
I/O.
1) It will be released in 2013
Expantion I/O
If the application requires more I/O than the controller provides, you can
attach I/O modules using serial techniques. X8 Series PLC have I/O
expandability.
X8 Series PLC Expansion I/O
For the X8 Series PLC expansion I/O is used to provide special module such
as digital I/O, analog module, position module and communication module.
You can attach up to max. 80 expansion I/O modules with power supply for
each 12 I/O modules in any combination.
Addressing Expansion I/O Slots
The figure below shows the addressing for the base and expantion I/O
module of X8 Series PLC . The expansion I/O is addressed as slots 1 to 80.
Modules are counted from left to right as shown below.

X8-M14DDT, X8-M16DDR Input Image
For X8-M14DDT and X8-M16DDR base module, the Bit positions 0 to 7
correspond to input terminals 0 to 7.
r = read only, x = not used, always at a 0 or OFF state
X8-M32DDT Input Image
For X8-M32DDT base module, the Bit positions 0 to 15 together with word
0/1 correspond to input terminals 0 to 15.
TIP
In most cases, you can use the following address format:
X:s.b (X = Table type letter, s = slot number, b = bit number)
For example I3:0.0
