SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in death or severe injury.

CAUTION

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in minor or moderate injury or property damage.

(Read these precautions before using this product.) Before using this product, please read this manual and the relevant manuals carefully, and pay full attention to safety to handle the product correctly. The precautions given in this manual are concerned with this product only. For the safety precautions for the programmable controller system, refer to the user's manual for the module used and MELSEC iQ-R Module Configuration Manual. In this manual, the safety precautions are classified into two levels: " WARNING" and " CAUTION".

Under some circumstances, failure to observe the precautions given under " CAUTION" may lead to serious consequences. Observe the precautions of both levels because they are important for personal and system safety. Make sure that the end users read this manual and then keep the manual in a safe place for future reference.

[Design Precautions]

WARNING

● Configure safety circuits external to the programmable controller to ensure that the entire system operates safely even when a fault occurs in the external power supply or the programmable controller. Failure to do so may result in an accident due to an incorrect output or malfunction. (1) Emergency stop circuits, protection circuits, and protective interlock circuits for conflicting

operations (such as forward/reverse rotations or upper/lower limit positioning) must be configured external to the programmable controller.

(2) When the programmable controller detects an abnormal condition, it stops the operation and all

outputs are:

• Turned OFF if the overcurrent or overvoltage protection of the power supply module is activated.

• Held or turned off according to the parameter setting if the self-diagnostic function of the CPU module detects an error such as a watchdog timer error.

(3) All outputs may be turned on if an error occurs in a part, such as an I/O control part, where the

CPU module cannot detect any error. To ensure safety operation in such a case, provide a safety mechanism or a fail-safe circuit external to the programmable controller. For a fail-safe circuit example, refer to the user's manual for the CPU module used and "General Safety Requirements" in MELSEC iQ-R Module Configuration Manual.

(4) Outputs may remain on or off due to a failure of a component such as a relay and transistor in an

output circuit. Configure an external circuit for monitoring output signals that could cause a serious accident.

● In an output circuit, when a load current exceeding the rated current or an over current caused by a load short-circuit flows for a long time, it may cause smoke and fire. To prevent this, configure an external safety circuit, such as a fuse.

● Configure a circuit so that the programmable controller is turned on first and then the external power supply. If the external power supply is turned on first, an accident may occur due to an incorrect output or malfunction.

● For the operating status of each station after a communication failure, refer to manuals relevant to the network. Incorrect output or malfunction due to a communication failure may result in an accident.

[Design Precautions]

WARNING

● When connecting an external device with a CPU module or intelligent function module to modify data of a running programmable controller, configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the entire system will always operate safely. For other forms of control (such as program modification, parameter change, forced output, or operating status change) of a running programmable controller, read the relevant manuals carefully and ensure that the operation is safe before proceeding. Improper operation may damage machines or cause accidents.

● Especially, when a remote programmable controller is controlled by an external device, immediate action cannot be taken if a problem occurs in the programmable controller due to a communication failure. To prevent this, configure an interlock circuit in the program, and determine corrective actions to be taken between the external device and CPU module in case of a communication failure.

● Do not write any data to the "system area" and "write-protect area" of the buffer memory in the module. Also, do not use any "use prohibited" signals as an output signal from the CPU module to each module. Doing so may cause malfunction of the programmable controller system. For the "system area", "write-protect area", and the "use prohibited" signals, refer to the user's manual for the module used.

● If a communication cable is disconnected, the network may be unstable, resulting in a communication failure of multiple stations. Configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the entire system will always operate safely even if communications fail. Incorrect output or malfunction due to a communication failure may result in an accident.

● To maintain the safety of the programmable controller system against unauthorized access from external devices via the network, take appropriate measures. To maintain the safety against unauthorized access via the Internet, take measures such as installing a firewall.

[Design Precautions] Precautions when connected to AnyWireASLINK

WARNING

● The AnyWireASLINK system has no control function for ensuring safety.

[Design Precautions] Precautions when connected to CC-Link

WARNING

● To set the automatic refresh parameter, specify the device Y for the remote output (RY) refresh device. If a device other than 'Y', such as 'M' and 'L', is specified, CPU module holds the device status as is even after the module status is changed to STOP. For the method for stopping a data link, refer to the user's manual for relevant CC-Link master/local module.

[Design Precautions] Precautions when connected to CC-Link IE Field Network

WARNING

● To set a refresh device in the network parameters, specify the device Y for the remote output (RY) refresh device. If a device other than 'Y', such as 'M' and 'L', is specified, CPU module holds the device status as is even after the module status is changed to STOP.

[Design Precautions] Precautions when connected to Ethernet

WARNING

● To prevent the malfunction of the programmable controller system due to harmful e-mails, take preventive measures (such as antivirus measures) so that the mail server for Ethernet module does not receive harmful e-mails.

[Design Precautions]

WARNING

● Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power cables. Keep a distance of 100mm or more between them. Failure to do so may result in malfunction due to noise.

● During control of an inductive load such as a lamp, heater, or solenoid valve, a large current (approximately ten times greater than normal) may flow when the output is turned from off to on. Therefore, use a module that has a sufficient current rating.

● After the CPU module is powered on or is reset, the time taken to enter the RUN status varies depending on the system configuration, parameter settings, and/or program size. Design circuits so that the entire system will always operate safely, regardless of the time.

● Do not power off the programmable controller or do not reset the CPU module while the settings are being written. Doing so will make the data in the flash ROM undefined. The values need to be set in the buffer memory and written to the flash ROM again. Doing so may cause malfunction or failure of the module.

● When changing the operating status of the CPU module from external devices (such as remote RUN/ STOP functions), select "Do Not Open in Program" for "Open Method Setting" in the module parameters. If "Open in Program" is selected, an execution of remote STOP causes the communication line to close. Consequently, the CPU module cannot reopen the communication line, and the external device cannot execute the remote RUN.

Considerations for data backup/restoration

■Use of an SD memory card

• During a data backup or restoration, do not perform the following actions: turning OFF the power, resetting a module, and inserting or removing an SD memory card. Otherwise, the data backup or restoration will be interrupted and the data will not be backed up or restored properly.

• Normal backup data cannot be created if the memory size or the number of files exceeds the maximum storage capacity of an SD memory card during a data backup.

■Operations with a display unit during data backup

If any of the following operations are performed with a display unit during data backup, the operation will be completed abnormally and the error is displayed on the display unit.

Operation name

Project data batch save/load function

File deletion on the "Memory card operation menu" screen of a display unit

■Unavailable operations and functions at the same time as data backup

20141210_12

Do not change.

If any of the following operations and functions are performed during data backup, the backup will be completed abnormally and the error cause is stored in SD1452 (iQ Sensor Solution backup/restoration error cause in a module). The error is returned to the request source which performs the operation or function.

CPU module data backup/restoration function

*1 Available operations and functions differ between LCPUs and QCPUs. For details, refer to the user's manual of a CPU module used.

When data is backed up or restored during a data logging, the performance of the data logging will be reduced. Therefore, sampled data may be partially missed and the data missing frequency may be increased.

■Communication load

When data is backed up or restored, the load of the service processing is temporarily increased. Consequently, a timeout error may occur in other communications. To avoid a timeout error, review the value set for "Service Processing Setting" on the [PLC System] tab in "PLC parameter".

■Backup folder name

Do not change an underscore and a subsequent number of a backup folder name (date_number). If they are changed, the data may not be restored properly.

3.5 Backing up/Restoring Data of Devices Supporting iQSS

Execution method of data backup

The target device for data backup can be set with a program.

■Acquiring a right to use

Set a value within the range from 1000H to 1FFFH to SD1435.

Right to use for data backup

• Special relays (SM) and special registers (SD) are used for data backup.

• To prevent the same special relay (SM) and special register (SD) from being set at the same time, acquiring a right to use of them for data backup is required.

• To acquire a right to use, specify a value which is not duplicate with values for other request sources to SD1435, and check that the value set to SD1435 is stored to SD1436.

• Normal operation cannot be assured if the data backup function is performed without confirming the acquisition of a right to use.

■Setting the backup setting

1. Setting a target module type

Set the target module type for data backup to the lower 8 bits of SD1437.

Target module type Description

1H: AnyWireASLINK Set the target module type.

2. Setting an execution unit

Set the unit of execution for data backup to the upper 8 bits of SD1437.

Execution unit Description

1H: Module unit Set this to specify all devices supporting iQSS which are connected to the AnyWireASLINK interface module with the

specified start I/O number.

2H: ID unit Set this to specify only the device supporting iQSS with the specified ID number among the devices supporting iQSS

which are connected to the AnyWireASLINK interface module with the specified start I/O number.

3. Setting a number for a data backup folder name

Set the number for a backup folder name to SD1438.

Target folder Description

FFFFH: Automatic specification (Default)

FFFEH: Automatic specification (folder deletion supported)

00 to 99: Target folder specification Set the number for a backup folder name.

Use the smallest number for a new backup folder name among the unused numbers as the backup folder name. An error occurs when unused number is no longer available due to such cases as the number of folders reached the upper limit.

Use the smallest number for a new backup folder name among the unused numbers as the backup folder name. The oldest folder is deleted and the number of the deleted folder is used for a new backup folder name when unused number is no longer available due to such cases as the number of folders reached the upper limit.

When another folder with the same number exists, the operation will be as follows:

■For module unit

• The backup folder with the same number is deleted, and a new backup folder is created.

■For ID unit

• Data in the backup folder with the same number is overwritten.

3.5 Backing up/Restoring Data of Devices Supporting iQSS

4. Setting a target device

• Setting a module When '1H' (module unit) is set for the execution unit in the step of 'Setting the execution unit', set the start I/O number of a target device for data backup to SD1439.

Target device (Module) Description

0 to FFH: Start I/O number When '1H' (module unit) is set for the execution unit, set the value obtained by dividing the start I/O number of an

AnyWireASLINK master module, which is connected to a target device supporting iQSS, by 16.

• Setting an ID number When '2H' (ID unit) is set for the execution unit in the step of 'Setting the execution unit', set the ID number of a target device for data backup to SD1440.

Target device (ID number) Description

0 to 255 (0FFH): Output slave module ID number

512 (200H) to 767 (2FFH): Input/ combined slave module ID number

*1 Specify the address + 512 (200H) for an input/combined slave module.

When '2H' (ID unit) is set for the execution unit, set the ID number of a target device supporting iQSS.

5. Setting the operation setting when a data backup error occurs

Set the operation on error to the lower 8 bits of SD1444 in order to backup data for multiple devices supporting iQSS.

Operation on error Description

0H: Continue Set this to continue a data backup even if it fails on some devices while being performed to multiple devices supporting

iQSS.

1H: Stop Set this to stop a data backup even if it fails on some devices while being performed to multiple devices supporting

iQSS.

■Performing a data backup

Data is backed up if SM1436 is turned ON while SD1446 is '1H' (ready). Once data is backed up, SD1446 will be '2H' (being executed).

■Requiring a data backup cancellation

The data backup stops if SM1442 is turned ON while SD1446 is '1H' (ready) or '2H' (being executed).

■Releasing the right to use

When SM1435 is turned ON after a data backup is completed (including a cancellation or an error), the right to use is released and the next data backup is ready to be performed. SM1435 turns ON to OFF when the right to use is released. If the right to use is released even though it has already been done, SM1435 remains ON since no processing is performed. In that case, set SM1435 to OFF.
