Setup and Installation

1) Setting of node address

Two rotary switches are used for setting node address.
X10 switch represents the 10's multiplier and X1 switch represents
the 1's multiplier. Node addresses are available from 0 to 63.

The node address is changed when supplying the power to the unit.

0

Re-supply the power to the unit after changing the node address.

The address of the connected unit must not be duplicated.

When changing the address during operation, the unit status (MS) LED
flashes in red and the unit communicates to the address before the change.

2) Installation of Unit

Installation on panel

Pull two rail locks on the rear part of unit, and there are xing screw holes.

Place this unit on a panel to be mounted.

rn

Make holes on the each xing screw hole position.
Place this unit on the two xing screw holes and x them tightly with 0 5 N m tightening torque.

Installation on D N rail

Pull two rail locks on the rear part of unit.

Gl

Place this unit on a panel to be mounted.

(jJ

Press the rail locks and x it rmly.

3) I/O cable connection

Refer to the I/O circuit diagram and connections.
Connect a sensor or the signal cable of external I/O device to the terminals.
(Tightening torque: 0 5 N m)

4) DeviceNet cable connection

For stable system, it is recommended to use the DeviceNet cable.

Gl

Connect the DeviceNet cable to the DeviceNet connector and tighten the xed screw of the connector by

0

a driver. (Tightening torque: 0 5 N.m)

Connect the DeviceNet connector to the ARD unit and supply the power to the network.

Node address of master unit: Usually it is set 00 address.

Resister connected unit in the network.

@

There are two methods to resister, automatically in on-line or manually in off-line.

(Refer to the manual of the master unit.)

ARD Series /O assignment: Usually it is automatically assigned by the software.

Setting of operation mode: Select among Poll, COS, Cyclic, Bit Strobe(Usually set Poll mode)

6) Check operating status

When installation and setting are completed, MS LED and NS LED turn ON in green.
