(Always read these instructions before using this equipment.)
Before using this product, please read this manual and the relevant manuals introduced in this manual carefully and pay full attention to safety to handle the product correctly. The instructions given in this manual are concerned with this product. For the safety instructions of the programmable controller system, please read the CPU module user's manual. In this manual, the safety instructions are ranked as "DANGER" and "CAUTION".
DANGER
CAUTION
Note that the CAUTION level may lead to a serious consequence according to the circumstances.
Always follow the instructions of both levels because they are important to personal safety.
Please save this manual to make it accessible when required and always forward it to the end user.
Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in death or severe injury.
Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in medium or slight personal injury or physical damage.
[Design Precautions]
DANGER
Depending on the GOT main unit, communication board, communication module or cable fault, the
output from the GOT interface module may remain ON or may remain OFF. An external monitoring circuit should be provided to check for output signals which may lead to a serious accident. Not doing so can cause an accident due to false output or malfunction.
If a communication fault (including cable disconnection) occurs during monitoring on the GOT,
communication between the GOT and PLC CPU is suspended and the GOT becomes inoperative. For bus connection : The CPU becomes faulty and the GOT inoperative. For other than bus connection : The GOT becomes inoperative. A system where the GOT is used should be configured to perform any significant operation to the system by using the switches of a device other than the GOT on the assumption that a GOT communication fault will occur. Not doing so can cause an accident due to false output or malfunction.
Do not use the GOT as the warning device that may cause a serious accident.
An independent and redundant hardware or mechanical interlock is required to configure the device that displays and outputs serious warning. Failure to observe this instruction may result in an accident due to incorrect output or malfunction.
A - 1
[Design Precautions]
DANGER
Incorrect operation of the touch switch(s) may lead to a serious accident if the GOT backlight is
gone out. When the GOT backlight goes out, the display section turns black and causes the monitor screen to appear blank, while the input of the touch switch(s) still remains active. This may confuse an operator in thinking that the GOT is in “screensaver” mode, who then tries to release the GOT from this mode by touching the display section, which may cause a touch switch to operate. Note that the following occurs on the GOT when the backlight goes out.
The monitor screen disappears even when the screensaver is not set.
The monitor screen will not come back on by touching the display section, even if the screensaver is set.
CAUTION
Do not bundle the control and communication cables with main-circuit, power or other wiring.
Run the above cables separately from such wiring and keep them a minimum of 100mm apart. Not doing so noise can cause a malfunction.
[Mounting Precautions]
DANGER
Before installing or removing the GOT main unit to or from an enclosure, always turn the GOT
power OFF before installing or removing the GOT main unit to or from an enclosure. Not doing so can cause a module failure or malfunction.
Before loading or unloading the communication board, communication module, external I/O
interface module or memory card interface module to or from the GOT, always turn the GOT power OFF before loading or unloading the communication board, communication module, external I/O interface module or memory card interface module to or from the GOT. Not doing so can cause a module failure or malfunction.
CAUTION
The GOT should be used in the environment given in the general specifications of this user's
manual. Not doing so can cause an electric shock, fire, malfunction or product damage or deterioration.
When mounting the GOT main unit to an enclosure, tighten the mounting screws in the specified
torque range. Undertightening can cause a drop, short circuit or malfunction. Overtightening can cause a drop, short circuit or malfunction due to the damage of the screws or module.
A - 2
[Mounting Precautions]
CAUTION
When loading the communication board, External I/O interface module or communication module
to the GOT main unit, fit it to the connection interface of the GOT and tighten the mounting screws in the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause a drop, failure or malfunction. Overtightening can cause a drop, failure or malfunction due to the damage of the screws or module.
When loading the communication board to the GOT main unit, take care not to become injured by
the components that are installed or surrounding materials.
When loading the communication board to the GOT main unit, remove any static electricity
accumulated on your body before engaging in work. Otherwise, this may result in damage to the board.
[Wiring Precautions]
DANGER
Before starting wiring, always turn the GOT power OFF before starting wiring.
Not doing so may cause an electric shock, product damage or malfunction.
CAUTION
Please make sure to ground FG terminal of the GOT power supply unit by applying Class D
Grounding (Class 3 Grounding Method) or higher which is used exclusively for the GOT. Not doing so may cause an electric shock or malfunction.
Correctly wire the power supply module on the GOT after confirming the rated voltage and
terminal arrangement of the product. Not doing so can cause a fire or failure.
Tighten the terminal screws of the GOT power supply section in the specified torque range.
Undertightening can cause a short circuit or malfunction. Overtightening can cause a short circuit or malfunction due to the damage of the screws or module.
Exercise care to avoid foreign matter such as chips and wire offcuts entering the module.
Not doing so can cause a fire, failure or malfunction.
Plug the bus connection cable by inserting it into the connector of the connected module until it
"clicks". After plugging, check that it has been inserted snugly. Not doing so can cause a malfunction due to a contact fault.
Plug the communication cable into the connector of the connected module and tighten the
mounting and terminal screws in the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause a short circuit or malfunction. Overtightening can cause a short circuit or malfunction due to the damage of the screws or module.
A - 3
[Test Operation Precautions]
DANGER
Before performing test operation (bit device on/off, word device's present value changing, timer/
counter's set value and present value changing, buffer memory's present value changing) for a user-created monitor screen or system monitoring, read the manual carefully to fully understand how to operate the equipment. During test operation, never change the data of the devices which are used to perform significant operation for the system. False output or malfunction can cause an accident.
[Startup/Maintenance Precautions]
DANGER
When opening the panel on which the GOT is installed, always power off the GOT.
Not doing so can cause the GOT to fail or malfunction.
When power is on, do not touch the terminals.
Doing so can cause an electric shock or malfunction.
Do not change the extension number setting switch and I/O slot setting switch setting during
power-on. Doing so can cause a malfunction.
Before starting cleaning or terminal screw retightening, always turn the power OFF before starting
cleaning or terminal screw retightening. Not switching the power off in all phases can cause a module failure or malfunction. Undertightening can cause a short circuit or malfunction. Overtightening can cause a short circuit or malfunction due to the damage of the screws or module.
When touching the GOT, communication unit, and/or option unit, or before touching the panel with
the GOT installed, touch a grounded metal object to discharge the static electricity from the human body. Failure to do so may cause the unit to fail or malfunction.
CAUTION
Do not disassemble or modify the module.
Doing so can cause a failure, malfunction, injury or fire.
Do not touch the conductive and electronic parts of the module directly.
Doing so can cause a module malfunction or failure.
The cables connected to the module must be run in ducts or clamped.
Not doing so can cause the module or cable to be damaged due to the dangling, motion or accidental pulling of the cables or can cause a malfunction due to a cable connection fault.
When unplugging the cable connected to the module, do not hold and pull the cable portion.
Doing so can cause the module or cable to be damaged or can cause a malfunction due to a cable connection fault.
A - 4
[Backlight Changing Precautions]
DANGER
Before changing the backlight, always turn the GOT power OFF (when using a GOT bus
connection, also turn OFF the PLC CPU power), and remove the GOT main unit from the panel before changing the backlight. Not switching the power off in all phases may cause an electric shock. Not removing the unit from the enclosure can cause injury due to a drop.
CAUTION
When replacing the backlight, use the gloves.
Otherwise, it may cause you to be injured. If you should directly touch the plated area of the main unit case with hand, be sure to wipe off the fingerprint and so on, and install the main unit case. Otherwise, it may cause a trouble or malfunction.
Start changing the backlight more than 5 minutes after switching the GOT power off.
Not doing so can cause a burn due to the heat of the backlight.

(3) Compatible with a wide variety of connection forms
The GOT models each contain their communication interfaces so that you can choose the connection form which meets your system. The A951GOT-Q, A951GOT comes with a bus communication interface to make a bus connection for fast communication, the A953GOT has an RS-232C interface and A950GOT includes an RS­422 communication interface to make a CPU direct connection or computer link connection. The A956GOT used with a communication module can make a bus connection, MELSECNET connection or CC-Link connection. The A956WGOT used with a communication module or communication board can make a bus connection, Direct connection to CPU, computer link connection, MELSECNET connection, CC­Link connection or Ethernet connection.
(4) Heavy-duty body usable in rigorous environment and operation
The standard display section of the GOT complies with the IP67 and the NEMA4 Waterproof, Dustproof Standard and is usable in a wide range of environment.
(5) Maintenance function further enhanced in affinity with PLC
Upgraded alarm history function The GOT can support the failure occurrence counting function, cumulative failure time totalizing function and history printing function, and start ladder monitoring with the corresponding device searched with a single keystroke at the failure detail display time.
(6) Improvement of safety by upgraded security function
• Supporting the operation protective function using up to 16 levels of passwords, the GOT can hide the display or disable input operation according to the password level. You can achieve hidden screens and hidden operations and easily change the display data per GOT used.
• You can specify the time delay function (ON delay/OFF delay) of the touch switches, double­pushing switches and interlock conditions to reduce malfunctions due to wrong key pushing.
(7) Wide, easy-to-see screen (A956WGOT only)
The A956WGOT can lay out more objects on the screen than it is possible with the A95 GOT. By
utilizing the monitor screen data of the A95 GOT, the A956WGOT enables numeric value entry without hiding the monitor screen with a window for numeric value entry. This is achieved by arranging the ten keys for numeric value input next to the monitor screen data.

(2) Notes on 5V DC supply for the additional base (A68RB) for duplex system at the final stage:
220mA of current to be consumed will be supplied from the additional base for duplex system at the final stage to the GOT bus interface, if the GOT power supply is off and the power supply for the power supply module mounted on the additional base for duplex system at the final stage is on. Therefore, please make sure that the 5V DC consumption (8A) of the power supply module will not be exceeded by the sum of the value of the current consumption of the input/output module and special function module that are mounted on the additional base for duplex system at the final stage and the value of the current consumption (220mA) of the GOT bus interface.
Power on the GOT-A900 series and Q4ARCPU duplex system in the following order.
(1) Power on the GOT-A900 series. (2) 1 to 2 seconds after power-on of the GOT-A900 series, power on the Q4ARCPU
duplex system.

General view of noise countermeasures
There are two types of noise: radiated noise, which is transmitted through the air, and conducted noise, which is transmitted through a connection wire. In noise countermeasures, the both two types of noise should be taken into account. As the noise countermeasures, there are the following three methods.
(1) Block noise
(a) Keep signal wires away from a possible noise source as power wires or high-
power driving circuits.
(b) Shield signal wires.
(2) Reduce generated noise
(a) Reduce the noise generated from high-power motor drive circuits.
(3) Ground noise without fail
(a) Earth the grounding wire to the ground without fail.
(b) Use a grounding wire as thick and short as possible to ensure low grounding
impedance.
(c) Separate the grounding between power and control systems.

(1) Use the thickest possible (max. 2 mm2 (14 AWG)) wires for the 100/200 VAC and
24 VDC power cables. Be sure to twist these wires starting at the connection terminals. To prevent a short-circuit should any screws loosen, use solderless terminals with insulation sleeves.
(2) When the LG terminals and FG terminals are connected, be sure to ground the
wires. Do not connect the LG terminals and FG terminals to anything other than ground. If LG terminals and FG terminals are connected without grounding the wires, the PLC may be susceptible to noise. In addition, since the LG terminals have potential, the operator may receive an electric shock when touching metal parts.

7 MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

This chapter explains the items which should be performed daily or periodically to use the GOT to its opti­mum.
7.1 Instructions for Maintenance and Inspection
The following instructions should be observed for maintenance and inspection.
When power is on, do not touch the terminals.
DANGER
Doing so can cause an electric shock or malfunction. Before starting cleaning or terminal screw retightening, always switch off the power
externally in all phases. Not switching the power off in all phases can cause a module failure or malfunction. Undertightening can cause a short circuit or malfunction. Overtightening can cause a short circuit or malfunction due to the damage of the screws or module.
Before changing the backlight, always turn the GOT power OFF (When using a GOT bus connection, also turn OFF the PLC CPU power), and remove the GOT main unit from the panel before changing the backlight. Not switching the power off in all phases may cause an electric shock. Not removing the unit from the enclosure can cause injury due to a drop.
CAUTION
Do not disassemble or modify the module. Doing so can cause a failure, malfunction, injury or fire.
Do not touch the conductive and electronic parts of the module directly. Doing so can cause a module malfunction or failure.
The cables connected to the module must be run in ducts or clamped. Not doing so can cause the module or cable to be damaged due to the dangling, motion or accidental pulling of the cables or can cause a malfunction due to a cable connection fault.
When unplugging the cable connected to the module, do not hold and pull the cable portion. Doing so can cause the module or cable to be damaged or can cause a malfunction due to a cable connection fault.
When disposing of the product, handle it as industrial waste. While changing the backlight, do not touch the circuit boards and electronic parts of
the GOT. Doing so can cause a failure or malfunction.
When replacing the backlight, use the gloves. Otherwise, it may cause you to be injured. If you should directly touch the plated area of the main unit case with hand, be sure to wipe off the fingerprint and so on, and install the main unit case. Otherwise, it may cause a trouble or malfunction.
Start changing the backlight more than 5 minutes after switching the GOT power off. Not doing so can cause a burn due to the heat of the backlight.

EMC DIRECTIVE

8 EMC DIRECTIVE

For the products sold in European countries, the conformance to the EMC Directive, which is one of the European Directives, has been a legal obligation since 1996. Also, conformance to the Low Voltage Direc­tive, another European Directives, has been a legal obligation since 1997. Manufacturers who recognize their products must conform to the EMC and Low Voltage Directives required to declare that their products conform to these Directives and put a "CE mark" on their products.
Products that the EMC directive applies to are marked with the CE mark logo.
8.1 Requirements for conformance to EMC Directive
The EMC Directive specifies that products placed on the market must "be so constructed that they do not cause excessive electromagnetic interference (emissions) and are not unduly affected by electromagnetic interference (immunity)". The applicable products are requested to meet these requirements. The sections 8.1.1 through 8.3.3 sum­marize the precautions on conformance to the EMC Directive of the machinery constructed using the GOT. The details of these precautions has been prepared based on the requirements and the applicable standards control. However, we will not assure that the overall machinery manufactured according to these details con­forms to the above-mentioned directives. The method of conformance to the EMC directive and the judg­ment on whether or not the machinery conforms to the EMC Directive must be determined finally by the manufacturer of the machinery.

8.1.2 Control cabinet
The GOT is an open type device (device installed to another device) and must be installed in a conductive control panel or cabinet. It not only assure the safety but also has a large effect to shut down the noise generated from GOT, on 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. (22mm
2
wire or thicker is recommended.)
(e) Holes made in the control cabinet must be 10 cm (3.94in.) diameter or less. If the holes are
10cm (3.94in.) or larger, radio frequency noise may be emitted. In addition, because radio waves leak through a clearance between the control panel door and the main unit, reduce the clearance as much as practicable. The leakage of radio waves can be suppressed by the direct application of an EMI gasket on the paint surface. Our tests have been carried out on a panel having the damping characteristics of 37 dB max. and 30 dB mean (measured by 3 m method with 30 to 300 MHz).
(2) Connection of power and ground wires
Ground and power supply wires for the GOT must be connected as described below.
(a) Provide an earthing point near the GOT. Earth the power supply's FG terminal (FG: Frame
Ground) with the thickest and shortest wire possible. (The wire length must be 30cm (11.18in.) or shorter.) The FG terminal function is to pass the noise generated in the GOT to the ground, so an impedance that is as low as possible must be ensured. As the wires are used to relieve the noise, the wire itself carries a large noise content and thus short wiring means that the wire is prevented from acting as an antenna.
Note) A long conductor will become a more efficient antenna at high frequency.

8.1 Requirements for conformance to EMC Directive

8.1.2 Control cabinet

(3) Electrical shock prevention
In order to such as the operators from electric shocks, the control box must have the following functions :
(a) The control cabinet must be equipped with a lock so that only skilled or qualified personnel.
(b) The control cabinet must be fitted with advice which automatically stops the power supply
when the cabinet is opened.
(4) Dustproof and waterproof features
The control box also has the dustproof and waterproof functions. Insufficient dustproof and waterproof features lower the insulation withstand voltage, resulting in insulation destruction. The insulation in our GOT is designed to cope with the pollution level 2, so use in an environment with pollution level 2 or better.
Pollution level 1: An environment where the air is dry and conductive dust does not exist.
Pollution level 2: An environment where conductive dust does not usually exist, but occasional
temporary conductivity occurs due to the accumulated dust. Generally, this is the level for inside the control box equivalent a control room or on the floor of a typical factory.
Pollution level 3: An environment where conductive dust exits and conductivity may be
generated due to the accumulated dust. An environment for a typical factory floor.

Error Message Definition Action
File system error occurred in
the PLC
The specified drive of PLC is
abnormal
Processing is from another
peripheral device
Contradiction in magnitude rela-
tionship of upper and lower limit
values
Specified station doesn’t access
for out of range
Other network accessed by
MNET10 module
The specification of E71 cannot
be written
It is not communicate between
the CPU and E71
When the file register name is designated and then
the recipe function is operated, an error occurs in
the designated file register.
When the file register name is designated and then
the recipe function is operated, there is a fault in
the PLC drive.
When the file register name is designated and then
the recipe function is operated, the PLC file regis-
ter could not be accessed.
When the file register name is designated and then
the recipe function is operated, other peripheral
devices begin processing for the file register.
Upper and lower limit values have been set as
[upper limit lower limit]
At the time of receive during RS-422/RS-232C
communication, any of overrun error, parity bit
error and framing error occurred.
(1) The station number specified for CC-Link con-
nection (via G4) is other than that of the master/
local station.
(2) Access was made to the CPU other than the
QCPU.
Access was made to the other network at the time
of MELSECNET connection (network system)
The Ethernet module on the PLC side has been
set for write disable.
The CPU is faulty or communication cannot be
made between the CPU and PLC side Ethernet
module.
1. Check the file register name, and then operate
the recipe function again.
2. Apply Format PLC memory to the designated
PLC drive with the GX Developer, and then
operate the recipe function again.
1. Check the designated PLC drive, and then oper-
ate the recipe function again.
2. Apply Format PLC memory to the designated
PLC drive with the GX Developer, and then
operate the recipe function again.
1. Check the designated PLC drive/ file register
name, and then operate the recipe function
again (If drive 0 was designated, change to a
different drive, and then operate the recipe func-
tion again).
2. Check whether the memory card is write-pro-
tected, and then operate the recipe function
again.
Wait until the peripheral devices finish operating,
and then operate the recipe function again.
Reconsider the data operation formula to avoid the
divisor of 0
Check the upper and lower limit value setting and
correct them to be [upper limit lower limit]
1. Check for any disconnected cable or improperly
fitted communication board/communication
module
2. This may occur if the programmable logic con-
troller load is increased while accessing another
station. In this case, move the other station's
data to the local station's programmable logic
controller, and monitor with the local station.
3. If the sequence scan is long, insert a COM com-
mand.
Check the cable connection status, the communi-
cation board/communication module mounting sta-
tus, the PLC status, and the communication link
transmission speed.
Check the station number of the monitor screen
data.
Check the network number in the screen data to
avoid access to the other network
Set the PLC side Ethernet module for write enable.
Check the CPU for any fault using GX Developer
or like. (Check the buffer memory.)
