DANGER
conditions, resulting in death or severe injury.
CAUTION
Under some circumstances, failure to observe the
instructions may also lead to serious results.
Be sure to observe the instructions of both levels to ensure the safety.
Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference and also pass this
manual on to the end user.
Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous
conditions, resulting in minor or moderate injury and/or
property damage.
CAUTION level
[DESIGN PRECAUTIONS]
DANGER
z Create a safety circuit outside the programmable controller to ensure the
whole system will operate safely even if an external power failure or a
programmable controller failure occurs.
Otherwise, incorrect output or malfunction may cause an accident.
(1) For an emergency stop circuit, protection circuit and interlock circuit that
is designed for incompatible actions such as forward/reverse rotation or
for damage prevention such as the upper/lower limit setting in
positioning, any of them must be created outside the programmable
controller.
Install the emergency stop switch outsid the controlpanel so that workers
can operate it easily.
A-1
[DESIGN PRECAUTIONS]
DANGER
(2) When the programmable controller detects the following error
conditions, it stops the operation and turn off all the outputs.
y The overcurrent protection device or overvoltage protection device of
the power supply module is activated.
y The programmable controller CPU detects an error such as a
watchdog timer error by the self-diagnostics function.
In the case of an error of a part such as an I/O control part that cannot
be detected by the programmable controller CPU, all the outputs may
turn on. In order to make all machines operate safely in such a case, set
up a fail-safe circuit or a specific mechanism outside the programmable
controller.
Refer to "LOADING AND INSTALLATION" in this manual for example
fail safe circuits.
(3) Depending on the failure of the output module’s relay or transistor, the
output status may remain ON or OFF incorrectly. For output signals that
may lead to a serious accident, create an external monitoring circuit.
y If load current more than the rating or overcurrent due to a short circuit
in the load has flowed in the output module for a long time, it may
cause a fire and smoke. Provide an external safety device such as a
fuse.
y Design a circuit so that the external power will be supplied after
power-up of the programmable controller.
Activating the external power supply prior to the programmable
controller may result in an accident due to incorrect output or
malfunction.
y For the operation status of each station at a communication error in
data link, refer to the respective data link manual.
The communication error may result in an accident due to incorrect
output or malfunction.
A-2
[DESIGN PRECAUTIONS]
DANGER
z When controlling a running programmable controller (data modification) by
connecting a peripheral device to the CPU module or a PC to a special
function module, create an interlock circuit on sequence programs so that the
whole system functions safely all the time.
Also, before performing any other controls (e.g. program modification,
operating status change (status control)), read the manual carefully and
ensure the safety.
In these controls, especially the one from an external device to a
programmable controller in a remote location, some programmable controller
side problem may not be resolved immediately due to failure of data
communications.
To prevent this, create an interlock circuit on sequence programs and
establish corrective procedures for communication failure between the
external device and the programmable controller CPU.
z When setting up the system, do not allow any empty slot on the base unit.
If any slot is left empty, be sure to use a blank cover (A1SG60) or a dummy
module (A1SG62) for it.
When using the extension base unit, A1S52B, A1S55B or A1S58B, attach
the included dustproof cover to the module in slot 0.
Otherwise, internal parts of the module may be flied in the short circuit test or
when an overcurrent or overvoltage is accidentally applied to external I/O
section.
CAUTION
z Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the
main circuit or power lines, or bring them close to each other.
Keep a distance of 100mm (3.94inch) or more between them.
Failure to do so may cause malfunctions due to noise.
z When an output module is used to control the lamp load, heater, solenoid
valve, etc., a large current (ten times larger than the normal one) may flow at
the time that the output status changes from OFF to ON. Take some
preventive measures such as replacing the output module with the one of a
suitable current rating.
A-3
[INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS]

3. EMC DIRECTIVES AND LOW VOLTAGE DIRECTIVES
The products sold in the European countries have been required by law to comply
with the EMC Directives and Low Voltage Directives of the EU Directives since
1996 and 1997, respectively.
The manufacturers must confirm by self-declaration that their products meet the
requirements of these directives, and put the CE mark on the products.
3.1 Requirements for Compliance with EMC Directives
The EMC Directives specifies emission and immunity criteria and requires the
products to meet both of them, i.e., not to emit excessive electromagnetic
interference (emission): to be immune to electromagnetic interference outside
(immunity).
Guidelines for complying the machinery including MELSEC-AnS series
programmable controller with the EMC Directives are provided in Section 3.1.1 to
3.1.6 below.
The guidelines are created based on the requirements of the regulations and
relevant standards, however, they do not guarantee that the machinery
constructed according to them will not comply with the Directives.
Therefore, the manufacturer of the machinery must finally determine how to make
it comply with the EMC Directives: if it is actually compliant with the EMC
Directives.

3.1.1 EMC standards
When the programmable controller is installed following the directions given in this
manual its EMC performance is compliant to the following standards and levels as
required by the EMC directive.

3.1.2 Installation instructions for EMC Directive
The programmable controller is open equipment and must be installed within a
control cabinet for use.* This not only ensures safety but also ensues effective
shielding of programmable controller-generated electromagnetic noise.
* : Also, each network remote station needs to be installed inside the control
panel.
However, the waterproof type remote station can be installed outside the
control panel.
(1) Control cabinet
(a) Use a conductive control cabinet.
(b) When attaching the control cabinet's top plate or base plate, mask
painting and weld so that good surface contact can be made between
the cabinet and plate.
(c) To ensure good electrical contact with the control cabinet, mask the
paint on the installation bolts of the inner plate in the control cabinet so
that contact between surfaces can be ensured over the widest possible
area.
(d) Earth the control cabinet with a thick wire so that a low impedance
connection to ground can be ensured even at high frequencies.
(e) Holes made in the control cabinet must be 10 cm (3.94 in.) diameter or
less. If the holes are 10 cm (3.94 in.) or larger, radio frequency noise
may be emitted.
(f) Lock the control panel so that only those who are trained and have
acquiredenough knowledge of electric facilities can open the control
panel.
(2) Connection of power and earth wires
Earthing and power supply wires for the programmable controller system
must be connected as described below.
(a) Provide an earthing point near the power supply module. Earth the
power supply's LG and FG terminals (LG : Line Ground, FG : Frame
Ground) with the thickest and shortest wire possible. (The wire length
must be 30 cm (11.18 in.) or shorter.) The LG and FG terminals function
is to pass the noise generated in the programmable controller system to
the ground, so an impedance that is as low as possible must be ensured.
In addition, make sure to wire the ground cable short as the wires are
used to relieve the noise, the wire itself carries large noise content and
thus short wiring means that the wire is prevented from acting as an
antenna.
(b) The earth wire led from the earthing point must be twisted with the power
supply wires. By twisting with the earthing wire, noise flowing from the
power supply wires can be relieved to the earthing. However, if a filter is
installed on the power supply wires, the wires and the earthing wire may
not need to be twisted.

3.1.3 Cables
The cables pulled out of the control panel contain a high frequency noise
component. On the outside of the control panel, therefore, they serve as
antennas to emit noise.
Ensure to use shielded cables for the cables, which are connected to the I/O
modules, special modules and those pulled out to outside of the control panel.
Mounting ferrite core is not required except some types of CPU however, noise
emanated via the cable can be restrained using it.
The use of a shielded cable also increases noise resistance. The signal lines
(including common line) connected to the programmable controller input/output
modules and intelligent modules use shielded cables to assure noise resistance,
as a condition, standardized on EN61131-2/A12(2000).
If a shielded cable is not used or not earthed correctly, the noise resistance will
be less than the rated value
(1) Earthing of shielded of cables
(a) Earth the shield of the shielded cable as near the unit as possible taking
care so that the earthed cables are not induced electromagnetically by
the cable to be earthed.
(b) Take appropriate measures so that the shield section of the shielded
cable from which the outer cover was partly removed for exposure is
earthed to the control panel on an increased contact surface. A clamp
may also be used as shown in the figure below. In this case, however,
apply a cover to the painted inner wall surface of the control panel which
comes in contact with the clamp.

Note) The method of earthing by soldering a wire onto the shield section of
the shielded cable as shown below is not recommended. The high
frequency impedance will increase and the shield will be ineffective.

(2) MELSECNET (II) and MELSECNET/10 units
(a) Use a double-shielded coaxial cable for the MELSECNET unit which
uses coaxial cables. Noise in the range of 30 MHz or higher in radiation
noise can be suppressed by the use of double-shielded coaxial cables
(Mitsubishi Cable: 5C-2V-CCY). Earth the outer shield to the ground.
The precautions on shielding to be followed are the same as those
stated in item (1) above.
Earth this sectionShield
(b) Ensure to attach a ferrite core to the double-shielded coaxial cable
connected to the MELSECNET unit. In addition, position the ferrite core
on each cable near the outlet of the control panel. TDK-make ZCAT3035
ferrite core is recommended.
(3) Ethernet module
Precautions to be followed when AUI cables and coaxial cables are used
are described below.
(a) Ensure to earth also the AUI cables connected to the 10BASE5
connectors of the A1SJ71QE71-B5. Because the AUI cable is of the
shielded type, as shown in the figure below, partly remove the outer
cover of it, and earth the exposed shield section to the ground on the
widest contact surface.

(b) Use shielded twisted pair cables as the twisted pair cables*1 connected
to the 10BASE-T connectors. For the shielded twisted pair cables, strip
part of the outer cover and earth the exposed shield section to the
ground on the widest contact surface as shown below.

(4) I/O and other communication cables
For the I/O signal lines (including common line) and other communication
cables (RS-232, RS-422, etc), if extracted to the outside of the control panel,
also ensure to earth the shield section of these lines and cables in the same
manner as in item (1) above.

(7) Measures against static electricity
When using an insulation displacement connector without connector cover,
a connected cable for the connector is thin in applicable wire size and
coating. Therefore, note that the module may cause an electric discharge
failure.
As measures against the failure, using pressure-displacement type
connector whose applicable wire size is thick or soldering type connector is
recommended.
3.1.4 Power supply module
The precautions required for each power supply module are described below.
Always observe the items noted as precautions.
Model Precautions
A1S61PN, A1S62PN Make sure to short and ground the LG and FG terminals. 2
A1S63P 10
Use the 24VDC panel power equipment conforming to the EU
Directive.
1: If sufficient filter circuitry is built into the 24 VDC external power supply
module, the noise generated by A1S63P will be absorbed by that filter
circuit, so a line filter may not be required.
Filtering circuitry of version F or later of A1S63P is improved so that a
external line filter is not required.
2: To ensure the compliance with CE (EN6111-21/A11), make sure to short
the LG and FG terminals using a wire of 6 to 7cm.

3.1.5 Ferrite core
A ferrite core has the effect of reducing radiated noise in the 30 M Hz to 100 M
Hz band. With the exception of some models, it is not required to fit ferrite
cores to cables, but it is recommended to fit ferrite cores if shield cables pulled
out of the enclosure do not provide sufficient shielding effects.*1 The ferrite
cores used in our tests are TDK's ZCAT3035.
It should be noted that the ferrite cores should be fitted to the cables in the
position immediately before they are pulled out of the enclosure. If the fitting
position is improper, the ferrite will not produce any effect.
1:To response with CE(EN61131-2/A12), make sure to mount 2 or more
ferrite cores onto the power supply line. The mounting position should be as
near the power supply module as possible.

3.1.6 Noise filter (power supply line filter)
A noise filter is a component which has an effect on conducted noise. With the
exception of some models, it is not required to fit the noise filter to the power
supply line, but fitting it can further suppress noise. (The noise filter has the
effect of reducing conducted noise of 10 M Hz or less.) Use any of the following
noise filters (double

The precautions required when installing a noise filter are described below.
(1) Do not bundle the wires on the input side and output side of the noise filter.
When bundled, the output side noise will be induced into the input side
wires from which the noise was filtered.
