•
WARNING
CAUTION
Note that the !CAUTION level may lead to a serious consequence according to t he 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 forw ard it to the end user.

[Design Precautions]
!
WARNING
Some failures of the GOT main unit, communication board or cable may keep the outputs on or
•
off.
An external monitoring circuit should be provided to check for output signals which may lead t o 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 t he GOT,
•
communication between the GOT and PLC CPU is suspende d and the GO T becomes
inoperative.
For bus connection: The CPU becomes faulty and the GOT 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.
!
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]
!
WARNING
Before installing or removing t he GO T main unit t o or from an enclos ure, alway s s wit ch off th e
•
GOT power externally in all phases.
Not doing so can cause a module failure or malfunction.
Before loading or unloading the communication board to or from the GOT, alway s switch off the
•
GOT power externally in all phases.
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 the GO T
•
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 specifie d
•
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.
When loading the communication board 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.

[Wiring Precautions]
!
WARNING
Before starting wiring, always switch off the GOT power externally in all phases.
•
Not doing so may cause an electric shock, product damage or malfunction.
!
CAUTION
Please make sure to ground FG terminal, LG terminal, and protective ground terminal of the
•
GOT power supply unit by applying Class D Grounding (Class 3 Gr ounding 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.
[Test Operation Precautions]
!
WARNING
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, 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.
A - 3 A - 3
[Startup/Maintenance Precautions]
!
WARNING
When power is on, do not touch the terminals.
•
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.
!
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.

1.1 About GOT
This manual describes procedures for creating a simple screen and monitoring with the
GOT for learning basic operations.
If using the GOT for the first time, read this manual to become familiar with operation of
the GOT and the GT Designer.
POINT
The screen data and sequence programs created in Chapters 3 and 4 of this
manual are packed with GT Designer.
Use them as required to check settings, for example.
(1) What is the GOT?
The GOT can be used as an electronic operator panel which has achieved on its
monitor screen th e sw itch ope rat io n, la mp in di cat io n, da t a di splay , messa ge
display and other operations which were previously performed on an operator
panel.
Space saving
Cost reduction
(2) About monitor screen data to be display ed on the GOT
The monitor screen data to be displayed on the GOT are created on a personal
computer using the dedicated software (GT Designer).
You can perform the corresponding functions of the GOT by pasting display
frame figures called switch figure, lamp figure, numerical display and other
objects to create screens on GT Designer, and setting PLC CPU device memory
(bit, word) driven operating functions to the pasted objects.
The monitor screen data created are transferred to the GOT through an RS-232C
cable or PC card (memory card).

1.2 About GOT Operations
MELSOFT
This section briefly explains what operations the GOT will perform when it is connected
with the PLC CPU.
1) While the "Run" touch key of the GOT is touched,
the bit device "M0 " i s ON.
K123MOVD10
2) When the bit device "M0" turns ON, the bit device
"Y10" turns ON.
An ON figure also appears as the GOT's lamp
display where the monitor device is preset to the bit
device "Y10".

"123" also appears as the GOT's numerical display
where the monitor device is preset to the word
device "D10".
4) While the "Stop" touch key of the GOT is touched,
the bit device "M1" of the PLC CPU is ON.
Since the bit device "Y10" of the PLC CPU turns
OFF, the lamp display of the GOT turns OFF.
Press the left button of the mouse once, then
release without moving the mouse.
This is the most common operation.
Using the right button to perform this operation is
called "right-click".
