Gives you helpful information.
NOTE
Do not disassemble,
modify ( including modification of printed circuit board ) or repair.
Otherwise injury or failure can result.
Do not operate beyond specification range.
Otherwise fire, malfunction or damage to the reduced wiring system can result.
Confirm the specifications before operation.
Do not operate in atmosphere of flammable/explosive/corrosive gas.
Otherwise fire, explosion or corrosion can result.
This reduced wiring system is not explosion-proof type.
For use in interlock circuit:
Provide double interlock system by adding different type of protection
( such as mechanical protection ).
Check that the interlock circuit is working normally.
Otherwise accident caused by malfunction can result.
Before performing maintenance:
Turn off power supply.
Stop air supply, exhaust compressed air in piping, and confirm the release to
atmosphere.
Otherwise injury can result.

The reduced wiring system is connected to various kinds of fieldbus and realizes the
reduced wiring and decentralized installation of I/O devices . The signals to/from
fieldbus are exchanged by GW unit, and the signals to/from decentralized I/O devices
are collected and delivered by GW unit.
The maximum number of connections of manifold valve/Input unit manifold is
16/branch x 4 branches = 64 points each for output and input.
As the cables with connectors are used for all wiring between devices, the system
complies with the IP65 environment.

Power supply wiring
Connect the power supply connector cable to the power supply connector of GW unit.
There are two types of cables different in connector shape ---- straight type and angle
type. With this cable, the power is supplied to the output devices such as solenoid
valve, and the input devices such as sensor, and for controlling GW/SI. Therefore, there
is no need to supply the power to other units individually.
When selecting the power supply, refer to "Handling precautions" ( page 3 ) in this manual.
Cable connection
Align the key groove with the power supply
connector ( plug ) of GW unit, plug in the power
supply cable ( socket ).
Tighten the lock nut on cable side by turning it
clockwise by hand.
Confirm that the connector portion does not move.

For branch wiring method, refer to subsection "Wiring" ( page 9 ) of section "EX500"
in this manual. As the power to output devices such as solenoid valve is supplied by
branch wiring ( branch cable with M12 connector ), there is no need to supply power
individually.
Note 1
For mounting/installation methods of solenoid valve, manifold, etc., refer to the
catalogs, instruction manuals, technical data, etc. of each valve series.
When connecting general purpose output block only, refer to subsection "Mounting"

Wiring
Branch wiring
For wiring method, refer to subsection "Wiring" ( page 9 ) of section "EX500" in this
manual. To input devices such as sensor, the power is supplied through the branch
wiring ( branch cable with M12 connector ). Therefore, there is no need to supply the
power to them individually.

Note: Internal wiring of M12 input block and key position for mounting sensor connector
No. 2 pins of M12 input block connectors are
wired to each other’s sensor signal input pins
( No. 4 pins ) internally.
This wiring enables direct input of signals from
two points combined into one cable through
concentric connector etc.
When connecting sensors, confirm the
specification of output signal carefully.
Otherwise malfunction can result.
The key position for mounting sensor
connector is as shown to the right. Consider
this key position when selecting sensor.
NOTE
Mount a waterproof cap on each unused connector of Input unit. The proper use of
waterproof cap can achieve IP65 Enclosure. The waterproof caps are delivered
together with each input block as accessories. ( Tightening torque: 0.05Nm for M8
and 0.1Nm for M12 )
Correspondence between input number and input block
Up to 8 Input blocks can be connected ( 16 points ).
Input numbers are 0 - 15 from Input unit side.

EX9 Series General Purpose Output Block Part Names
The EX9 series general purpose output block is the unit to operate solenoid valve,
relay, etc. in combination with VQC series valve and applicable SI unit.
There are two types ---- one type is for low wattage load ( EX9-OET1 or EX9-OET2 )
that outputs signals by receiving power supply from SI unit, and the other type is for
high wattage load ( EX9-OEP1 or EX9-OEP2 ) that outputs signals by receiving power
supply from outside. The type for high wattage load is used in combination with the
power block ( EX9-PE1 ) connected with external power supply. As the low-wattage-
load type is powered from SI unit, the wattage of load is limited to 1.0W ( Note1 ). For a
load up to 12W, use the power block and the high-wattage-load type.
Note1: When connected with EX500 series.
