Supply power (24 VDC) from an external source to the control unit of the
Series 16i–LA/160i–LA system. Install an external power–on/off switch
for the control unit, as shown in the figure below. When the Series
160i–LA system with PC functions is used, apply countermeasures to
guard against possible destruction of the data on the hard disk due to a
momentary power failure; for example, install an uninterruptible power
supply. The power rating is equal to the sum of the capacity of the control
unit (total power consumption in the unit indicated in Section 3.6 plus a
margin of about 20% to 30%) and the output via the control unit (output
from CP1B).

In the FS16i–LA system, the laser oscillator is connected in series via the
I/O unit.
For a laser oscillator interface, three groups with 256 DI and 256 DO
points are reserved.
The machine can therefore use up to 13 groups with 768 DI and 768 DO
points (X0 to X95 and Y0 to Y95).
Areas X96 to X127 and Y96 to Y127 cannot be used, even when a ladder
is used to specify writing to these areas.

CONNECTION USING
AN OPTICAL FIBER
CABLE
When one of the following conditions is satisfied, an optical fiber cable
must be used to connect the laser oscillator to the I/O link:
(1)The length of the required cable is at least 10 m.
2
(2) A 5.5–mm
grounding line cannot be used to establish a connection
between the CNC control unit and the cabinet housing the I/O unit etc.,
or a connection between the CNC control unit and the laser oscillator.
(3)The cable may be susceptible to high–level noise.
For example, when the cable is placed near any machine which
produces high–level magnetic noise, such as a welder . Or , when most
of the cable runs parallel to a power line or power magnetics cable.
(4) The laser oscillator to be connected is certified by the CE marking
system.
Optical I/O link adaptors
To use optical fiber cables for making connections, optical I/O link
adaptors must be used, as shown below.

NOTE
1 T o daisy–chain I/O units to a single I/O link, both optical fiber
cables and electrical cables can be used.
2 When an optical fiber cable is used, an optical I/O link
adaptor must also be used.
3 Two types of optical I/O link adaptors are supported:
Standard and high–speed.
4 When four or more optical fiber cables are used (that is,
when four or more connections are established), the cables
should be of high–speed type.
5 Each laser oscillator contains a standard type adaptor. To
establish a connection to the laser oscillator, therefore, an
I/O unit must be provided with a standard type I/O link
adaptor, because only adaptors of the same type can be
connected to each other.
For an explanation of FANUC I/O link connection using electrical cables,
or the outside dimensions of optical I/O link adaptors, refer to Section 6.2,
“FANUC I/O Link Connection,” in the “Series 16i–MODEL A

Functions
For information about connections other than the laser functions, refer to
the “16i/18i/21i/20i/160i/180i/210i–MODEL A Connection Manual:
Function” (B–63003EN–1).
Most of the functions described in manual (B–63003EN–1) can be used
with the 16i–LA. Note, however , that some functions cannot be used with
the 16i–LA, while others require a different specification for use with the
16i–LA.
Whether the functions described in manual (B–63003EN–1) can be used
with the 16i–LA is listed below.
For details of those functions for which a different specification is
necessary, see Chapter 2. The functions are listed below.
The meanings of the symbols used in the table are as follows:
