[Design Precautions]

WARNING

● Configure safety circuits external to the product to ensure that the entire system operates safely even when a fault occurs in the external power supply or the product. 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 product.

(2) When the product 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 product detects an error such as a watchdog timer error.

● Configure a circuit so that the product 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.

● Before performing operations for the product from the peripheral connected, read the relevant manuals carefully and ensure the safety.

[Design Precautions]

CAUTION

● 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.

● When selecting fuses and breakers for external circuits, consider the specification values of fusing/ detection characteristics and inrush current.

● When using an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), do not use the one that outputs square waves.

[Installation Precautions]

CAUTION

● Use the product in an environment that meets Page 114 General specifications in this manual. Failure to do so may result in electric shock, fire, malfunction, or damage to or deterioration of the product.

● To mount a power supply module, place the concave parts located at the bottom onto the guides of the main module, and push in the power supply module until the hooks located at the top snaps into place. Incorrect interconnection may cause malfunction, failure, or drop of the module.

● When using the product in an environment of frequent vibrations, fix the power supply module with a screw.

● Tighten the screws within the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause drop of the screw, short circuit, or malfunction. Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module, resulting in drop, short circuit, or malfunction.

● To connect a fan module, set the fan module at the correct position of the main module, and push in the fan module until the fan module fixing hook snaps into place. Check that the fan module fixing hook is fixed to the main module securely. If the fan module is not connected properly, the fan may not rotate or it may cause malfunction due to rise in temperature of the main module.

● To disconnect a fan module, securely press the fan module fixing hook with your finger. Then, pull the module forward while pressing the hook.

● Do not touch the exposed heatsink after removing the fan module. The heatsink is very hot immediately after the power is switched off and may cause burns. Additionally, touching the heat sink may deform it and decrease cooling efficiency.

● Do not apply shock such as falling and dropping to the fan module during transportation. Doing so may result in damage to the product or deterioration in performance.

● When using a CFast card, fully insert it into the CFast card slot. Check that it is inserted completely. Poor contact may cause malfunction.

● Place hands to hold a CFast card when removing it from the slot because the card may be jumped out. If not placing hands, the card may fall, resulting in damage or failure.

● Do not directly touch any conductive parts and electronic components of the module or CFast card. Doing so can cause malfunction or failure of the module.

● Do not remove the protecting sheets attached to the plate of the base part. For this plate, it may raise to high temperature cause combined with heat-sink. So do not remove or touch this sheets when module is operating and turning off the power supply to prevent a burn.

[Wiring Precautions]

WARNING

● Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before installation and wiring. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or cause the module to fail or malfunction.

● After installation and wiring, close the terminal cover before turning it on for operation. Failure to do so may result in electric shock.

[Wiring Precautions]

CAUTION

● Individually ground the FG and LG terminals of the product with a ground resistance of 100 ohms or less. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or malfunction.

● Use applicable solderless terminals and tighten them within the specified torque range. If any spade solderless terminal is used, it may be disconnected when the terminal screw comes loose, resulting in failure.

● Check the rated voltage and signal layout before wiring to the power supply module, and connect the cables correctly. Connecting a power supply with a different voltage rating or incorrect wiring may cause fire or failure.

● Solderless terminals must be crimped with the tool specified by the manufacturer. Incomplete crimping may cause short circuit, fire, or malfunction.

● Securely connect the connector of an external device to the product. Poor contact may cause malfunction.

● Place the cables in a duct or clamp them. (Cable ties made of nylon can be used as well.) If not, dangling cable may swing or inadvertently be pulled, resulting in damage to the module or cables or malfunction due to poor contact.

● Check the interface type and correctly connect the cable. Incorrect wiring (connecting the cable to an incorrect interface) may cause failure of the module and external device.

● Tighten the terminal screws or connector screws within the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause drop of the screw, short circuit, fire, or malfunction. Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module, resulting in drop, short circuit, fire, or malfunction.

● Prevent foreign matter such as dust or wire chips from entering the product. Such foreign matter can cause a fire, failure, or malfunction.

● A protective film is attached to the top of the module to prevent foreign matter, such as wire chips, from entering the product during wiring. Do not remove the film during wiring. Remove it for heat dissipation before system operation.

● When disconnecting the cable from the product, do not pull the cable by the cable part. For the cable with connector, hold the connector part of the cable. For the cable connected to the terminal block, loosen the terminal screw. Pulling the cable connected to the module may result in malfunction or damage to the module or cable.

The following shows a wiring example for the power supply module.

• Additionally, fully tighten terminal block screws that do not have wiring attached. If these are not fully tightened, then during operation these may loosen or fall out because of vibration.

• Wiring must be twisted tightly starting from the terminal connection. Also, use the thickest wire (minimum 2) to reduce the voltage drop.

• For the wiring to a terminal block, use a solderless terminal.

• To prevent a short-circuit while loosening screws, use a solderless terminal (1) with an insulation sleeve of 0.8 mm or less. Note that up to 2 solderless terminals (1) can be connected per terminal block (2).

• For the LG and FG terminals, short by using the thickest and shortest ground cable possible (minimum of 2), and ensure this is grounded. Failure to ground may result in deterioration of the signal from noise. Additionally, the LG terminal has half of potential of the input voltage, so ensure precautions are taken against electric shock.

• Provide independent grounding when possible. In addition, grounding work is to be to a Class D grounding (third class grounding). (Insulation resistance of 100Ω or lower )

• For the ERR+ and ERR- terminals, use wires with a thickness at least 0.75  and length of 30 m or less. When using cables longer than 3 m, either twist the cables or use a cabtyre cable.

Additionally, if further slave stations are added when 120 slave stations are connected, the 121st and subsequent stations do not perform baton passes or data links, while the other stations continue baton passes and data links. When 121 or more stations are connected, even disconnected stations that are reconnected may not start data links.

• Confirmation as to whether 121 or more slave stations (including sub master stations) is possible in 'Connected device number excess occurrence status' (SB0099). The number of connected stations detected using 'Connected device number excess occurrence status' (SB0099) is the total of currently connected slave stations and previously connected slave stations (disconnected stations).

• By updating the CC-Link IE Field Network diagnosis network configuration, it is possible to reset the number of stations that were connected in the past. (MELIPC MI5000 Series User's Manual (Application))

• Updating the network configuration carries out reconnection processing for all stations on the network, therefore this results in a momentary data link error for all stations, with output OFF for connected slave stations. Configure in order to save output as necessary. ( Page 63 Output retention at data link abnormality)

■If cables are removed then reinserted, or power turned OFF/ON

The actual network configuration and the CC-Link IE Field diagnosis network configuration may at times not match. Confirmation as to whether these match is possible in 'Network configuration mismatch occurrence status' (SB0098).

• By updating the CC-Link IE Field Network diagnosis network configuration, it is possible to match the actual network configuration with the network configuration diagram. (MELIPC MI5000 Series User's Manual (Application))

• When the network configuration is updated, all stations reconnect to the network, so all stations may have errors momentarily and output may be OFF for connected slave stations. Configure as necessary to maintain output. ( Page 63 Output retention at data link abnormality)

Link point numbers per slave station are for RX/RY: 64 points, and for RWr/RWw: 32 points. However, when changing the number of occupied stations, these can be set up to a maximum of 256 points by 64 point units for RX/RY, and 128 points by 32 point units for RWr/RWw. For the applicability of changing the number of occupied stations, refer to the manual of the slave station in use.

Changing the slave station link point numbers will change the assigned range and station numbers.

9 CREATION AND REGISTRATION OF USER PROGRAMS

9.3 User Programs for the VxWorks Part

Precautions

The following shows the considerations for creating a user program.

■Endian format (memory allocation)

MELPIC employs little-endian format (memory allocation). Compiling user programs with little-endian format is required.

■VxWorks real-time process (RTP)

MELIPC does not support applications that run in VxWorks real-time process. Create a user program as VxWorks karnelbased application.

■Execution of a user program

To run a user program, start a task from a script file. Running a user program without starting a task may cause system malfunction.

■Starting a task that calculates floating point values

To start the following tasks, specifying the VX_FP_TASK option to the third argument of taskSpawn is required.

• A task that calculates floating point values

• A task that calls function to return floating point values

• A task that calls function for which a floating point value can be set to an argument

If the tasks above are started without specifying the VX_FP_TASK option, the operating system will out of control. When specifying the VX_FP_TASK option in a script file, refer to the following section. Page 82 When specifying the VX_FP_TASK option For details on the VX_FP_TASK option, refer to the manual for VxWorks.

■Task execution in the MELIPC STOP state

Even if the operating status of a MELIP is in the STOP state, the user program task will not stop. To divide the process of a user program according to the MELIPC operation, use the C Controller module dedicated function (CCPU_GetCpuStatus).

■Priority of execution tasks

Set the priority of a task for running a user program as follows.

• When not to perform the access using an FTP or file sharing function while running a user program, set the priority of the user program as 100 or more (within 100 to 255). Otherwise, the system may not operate properly.

• The access using an FTP or file sharing function while running a user program is available when the processing (task) of the FTP or the file sharing function of a MELIPC operates with the priority 150. Therefore, set the priority of the user program within 151 to 255. When setting the priority within 100 to 150, set a waiting time (taskDelay) in the user program so that the FTP or file sharing function is enabled.

■To send/receive data to/from a target device in Ethernet communications

Before communicating with a target device though Ethernet, check the port number that is being used in the MELIPC using

the VxWorks standard command, 'netstat' between the MELIPC and the target device. Doing so may result in abnormal communications.

*1 'netstat' command must be run in the Telnet tool.

. Do not use the port number which has already been used for communications

■When a response is not returned from a function

If an error occurs in a MELIPC, a response may not be returned from a function. Create a user program considering the aspect of this symptom. An error occurrence status can be checked by using the C Controller module dedicated function (CCPU_GetErrInfo).

9 CREATION AND REGISTRATION OF USER PROGRAMS

9.3 User Programs for the VxWorks Part

■Memory fragmentation

Reserving and releasing memory repeatedly causes memory fragmentation, and it may result incorrect system operation.

■Restrictions on MELSEC data link functions

A path for MELSEC data link function cannot be shared among multiple tasks. A path for opening/closing a task must be managed for each task.

■Considerations when changing a system clock rate

• A system clock rate must be changed, not with the VxWorks standard API function (sysClkRateSet), but with the C Controller module dedicated function (CCPU_SysClkRateSet). Otherwise, the operation on VxWorks will be unstable.

■IP address setting

Set an IP address for the VxWorks part of a MELIPC from MI Configurator. If an IP address is set using a user program, the network will not work properly.

■Considerations on interrupt service routine

A routine to execute in an interrupt service routine must be created after fully understand the specifications of VxWorks, which is the operating system on the VxWorks part of a MELIPC. Setting incorrect value to an argument or executing a function other than that for interrupt service routine may cause VxWorks runaway. In a dedicated function library provided by MELIPC, C Controller dedicated functions for ISR can be used. To execute another dedicated function synchronizing with an interrupt, implement a notification processing to a user program and execute it in a task.

■Considerations on serial communications

To run a program for serial communications, set the communication target for serial communications to the VxWorks part using the serial I/F switching function. Additionally, do not perform serial communications from multiple tasks; otherwise, the program may not run properly.
