[DESIGN PRECAUTIONS]

WARNIN G

CAUTION

 If a communication fails in data link, the faulty station holds the data link data

generated before the communication error. Create an interlock circuit in the
sequence program using the communication status information in order that
the system will operate safely.
Failure to do so may cause mis-outputs or malfunctions, resulting in
accidents.
Check the faulty station and the operation status during communication error
by referring to the relevant manuals.

 Some failures of cable or communication unit may cause the GOT to keep the

outputs on or off.
Create an external circuit for monitoring output signals that may lead to
serious accidents.
Failure to do so may cause mis-outputs or malfunctions, resulting in
accidents.

 If a communication error (including cable disconnection) occurs during

monitoring, the communication between the GOT and programmable
controller CPU may be interrupted and the GOT may be inoperative.

For bus connection : The programmable controller CPU is down and the

For other than above: The GOT is inoperative.
When configuring a system including the GOT, the possibility of GOT
communication error must be considered; make sure the operation significant
for the system will be performed by switches on devices other than the GOT.
Failure to do so may cause mis-outputs or malfunctions, resulting in
accidents.

 Laser diodes are used in optical transceivers for the CC-Link IE Controller

Network. The class of these laser diodes is Class 1.

GOT is inoperative.

 Do not bunch the control wires or communication cables with the main circuit

or power wires, or lay them close to each other.
As a guide, separate the lines by a distance of at least 100mm (3.94 inches)
otherwise malfunctions may occur due to noise.

[INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS]

WARNIN G

CAUTION

WARNIN G

 Be sure to shut off all phases of the external power supply used by the system

before mounting or removing this unit to/from the GOT.
Not doing so can cause a unit failure or malfunction.

 Use this unit in the environment that satisfies the general specifications

described in the User's Manual for the GOT used.
Not doing so can cause an electric shock, fire, malfunction or product damage
or deterioration.

 When installing this unit to the GOT, fit it to the connection interface of the

GOT and tighten the mounting screws in the specified torque range (0.36 N•m
to 0.48 N•m) with a Phillips-head screwdriver No.2.
Undertightening can cause a drop, failure or malfunction.
Overtightening can cause a drop, failure or malfunction due to screw or unit
damage.

 Do not directory touch the conductive part or electronic components of the

unit.
This may cause the unit to fail or malfunction.

[WIRING PRECAUTIONS]

 Be sure to shut off all phases of the external power supply used by the system

before wiring.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock, product damage or malfunctions.

A-3

[WIRING PRECAUTIONS]

CAUTION

WARNIN G

 Be careful not to let foreign matter such as dust or wire chips get inside the

unit. This may cause a fire, failure or malfunctions.

 Make sure to securely connect the cable to the connector of unit.

Incorrect connection may cause malfunctions.

 Make sure to fix communication cables and power cables to the unit by ducts

or clamps. Failure to do so may cause damage of the unit or the cables due to
accidental pull or unintentional shifting of the cables, or malfunctions due to
poor contact of the cables.

 Do not hold the cable by hand and pull it out from the unit.

When removing the cable from the unit, make sure to hold the connector by
hand and pull it.
Failure to do so may cause malfunctions or damage to the unit or cable.

[STARTUP AND MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS]

 Do not touch the connector while power is on.

Failure to do so may cause electric shock or malfunctions.

 Before starting cleaning, always shut off GOT power externally in all phases.

Not doing so can cause a unit failure or malfunction.

[STARTUP AND MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS]

CAUTION

CAUTION

CAUTION

 Do not disassemble or modify any unit.

This will cause failure, malfunction, injuries, or fire.

 Do not touch the conductive areas and electronic parts of this unit directly.

Doing so can cause a unit malfunction or failure.

 Make sure to externally shut off all phases of the power supply before

cleaning the unit and retightening unit mounting screws.
Failure to do so may cause the unit to fail or malfunction.
Loose tightening may cause a fall of the unit, short circuits, or malfunctions.
Overtightening may damage the screws and/or the unit, resulting in a fall of
the unit, short circuits or malfunctions.

 Make sure to touch the grounded metal to discharge the electricity charged in

the body, etc., before touching the unit.
Failure to do so may cause a failure or malfunctions of the unit.

[DISPOSAL PRECAUTIONS]

 Dispose of this product as industrial waste.

[TRANSPORTATION PRECAUTIONS]

 Make sure to transport the GOT main unit and/or relevant unit(s) in the

manner they will not be exposed to the impact exceeding the impact
resistance described in the general specifications of Use this unit in the
environment that satisfies the general specifications described in the User's
Manual for the GOT used, as they are precision devices.
Failure to do so may cause the unit to fail.
Check if the unit operates correctly after transportation.

 When fumigants that contain halogen materials such as fluorine, chlorine,

bromine, and iodine are used for disinfecting and protecting wooden
packaging from insects, they cause malfunction when entering our
products.Please take necessary precautions to ensure that remaining
materials from fumigant do not enter our products, or treat packaging with
methods other than fumigation (heat method).Additionally, disinfect and
protect wood from insects before packing products.
