[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.

(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.
