Before using this product, please read this manual and the relevant manuals carefully and pay full attention to safety to handle the product correctly.

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) Configure external safety circuits, such as an emergency stop circuit, protection circuit, and

protective interlock circuit for forward/reverse operation or upper/lower limit positioning.

(2) The programmable controller stops its operation upon detection of the following status, and the

output status of the system will be as shown below.

All outputs may turn on when an error occurs in the part, such as 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 Page 670, Appendix 9.

(3) Outputs may remain on or off due to a failure of an output module relay or transistor. Configure an

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

[Design Precautions]

WARNING

● In an output module, when a load current exceeding the rated current or an overcurrent 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 relevant manuals for the network. Incorrect output or malfunction due to a communication failure may result in an accident.

● When changing data of the running programmable controller from a peripheral connected to the CPU module or from a personal computer connected to an intelligent function module, configure an interlock circuit in the sequence program to ensure that the entire system will always operate safely. For program modification and operating status change, read relevant manuals carefully and ensure the safety before operation. Especially, in the case of a control from an external device to a remote programmable controller, immediate action cannot be taken for a problem on the programmable controller due to a communication failure. To prevent this, configure an interlock circuit in the sequence program, and determine corrective actions to be taken between the external device and CPU module in case of a communication failure.

[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 a device such as a lamp, heater, or solenoid valve is controlled through an output module, a large current (approximately ten times greater than normal) may flow when the output is turned from off to on. Take measures such as replacing the module with one having 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.

[Installation Precautions]

(4) Increase in debugging efficiency through high-speed communication with a

programming tool

High-speed communications at 115.2Kbps maximum are available by using RS-232 which reducing the time

required for writing and reading of programs and monitoring. Also, the communication time efficiency of

debugging has been increased.

In addition, High Performance model QCPUs (except for the Q02CPU), Process CPUs, Redundant CPUs and

Universal model QCPUs support USB, so that high-speed communications of 12Mbps are available.

(5) Use of AnS/A series I/O modules and special function modules

The AnS/A series compatible extension base units (QA1S5B, QA1S6B, QA1S6ADP+A1S5B/A1S6B,

QA6B, and QA6ADP+A5B/A6B) can be connected to the main base unit where the High Performance

1.1 Features

(7) Connection of up to 7 extension base units

Remark

Up to seven extension base units can be connected to the Q series CPU module.

The overall extension cable length is 13.2m, which allows flexible layout of base units.

(8) Memory extension

By extending the memory capacity of a CPU module, large size files can be managed. Comments can be set to

all data devices and old programs can be saved as correction history.

(a) Memory card

A memory card (maximum 32M bytes) can be installed. (The maximum size is available only for ATA cards.)

Memory cards are used for the following operations.

• Boot operation

• Restoring backup data

• Writing programs to the ROM

Data that cannot be stored in the built-in memory of the CPU module, such as sampling trace data and file

(b) SD memory card

SD memory cards are used for the following operations.

• Boot operation

• Restoring backup data

• Data backup

• Data logging

An extended SRAM cassette extends the capacity of the standard RAM in a CPU module.

• An extended SRAM cassette can be used together with an SD memory card, allowing users to store data

separately (for example, boot data in an SD memory card and device data in an extended SRAM

cassette). This improves maintainability.

• With existing CPU modules, file register areas in the standard RAM and an SRAM card cannot be

accessed sequentially, and the boundary needs to be considered at programming. If the standard RAM

capacity is extended using an extended SRAM cassette, the device area can be extended without

considering the boundary.

Memory extension methods differ depending on the CPU module. ( Page 35, Section 2.2)

CHAPTER 1 OVERVIEW

Note 1.1, Note 1.2

Note 1.1

(9) Automatic write to the standard ROM Note 1.1 Note 1.2

Parameters and programs in a memory card or SD memory card can be written to the standard ROM of the CPU

module without using a programming tool.

If the boot operation is being performed from the standard ROM, parameters and programs in a memory card or

SD memory card can be written to the standard ROM by inserting it to the CPU module. Users do not need a

programming tool (personal computer) on hand to modify parameters and programs.

(10)External input/output forced on/off

Forced on and off of external input and output is available using a programming tool even when the CPU module

is running or program is being processed.

Also, wiring test and operation test can be conducted without halting the CPU module by forcibly turning on or off

the I/O.

(11)Remote password function

When the built-in Ethernet port QCPU, Ethernet module, or serial communication module is externally accessed,

an access to the CPU module can be controlled by setting a remote password.

(12)Remote I/O network of MELSECNET/H

A MELSECNET/H remote I/O system can be configured by installing a MELSECNET/H remote master station.

● The remote password can be set up when the Ethernet module, or serial communication module of function version B or later is used.

● The MELSECNET/H remote I/O network can be implemented when the MELSECNET/H network module of function version B or later is used.

(13)Support of multiple CPU systems

CPU module supports the multiple CPU system.

Multiple CPU systems can be constructed in combination with CPU modules, motion CPU(s), PC CPU module(s),

and C Controller module.

For details of the multiple CPU system, refer to the following.

QCPU User's Manual (Multiple CPU System)

Note 1.1

• MELSECNET/H remote I/O network

1.1 Features

Note 1.2

Universal

The Universal model QCPU does not support the following function.

• Parameter setting of automatic write to the standard ROM

(14)Support of redundant power supply systems

Note 1.3

The redundant power supply system can be configured using a redundant base unit and redundant power supply

modules.

The system can continue operation even if one of the power supply modules fails, since the other will supply the

power.

(15)Direct connection to Ethernet Note 1.3

The Built-in Ethernet port QCPU module allows direct connections to Ethernet.

For details of the functions, refer to the following.

QnUCPU User's Manual (Communication via Built-in Ethernet Port)

When the GOT has been busconnected, one slot of extension base 1 is used. Also one GOT occupies 16 I/O points. When using the GOT, consider the number of slots and the number of I/O points. Refer to the GOT Manual for details of busconnecting the GOT.

(6) Precautions for the number of mountable modules

Mount modules so that the total number of I/O points does not exceed the point range of the CPU module.

Modules can be mounted in any slot within the available range.

Even if the total number of slots of the main base unit and extension base units exceeds the number of available

slots (for example, even if six12-slot base units are used), no error occurs as long as modules are mounted within

the available range.

If a module is mounted exceeding the available range, "SP.UNIT LAY ERR." (error code: 2124) occurs.

CHAPTER 2 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION

2.3.1 Bus connection of GOT

In the system with the Q series CPU module, the GOT can be bus-connected using the extension cable connector of

the main base unit or extension base unit.

This section describes the system configuration when a GOT is bus-connected to the CPU module.

For details of bus-connection of GOT, refer to the following.

GOT-A900 Series User's Manual (Connection)

GOT1000 Series Connection Manual (Mitsubishi Products) for GT Works3

GOT2000 Series Connection Manual (Mitsubishi Products) For GT Works3 Version1

(1) GOT recognized by CPU module

When a GOT is bus-connected, the CPU module recognizes the GOT as an intelligent function module with 16

I/O points.

For this reason, the I/O numbers must be assigned to the CPU module in the GOT setup.

(When bus-connecting a GOT, one extension level (16 points x 10 slots) must be occupied.)

For details of the GOT setup, refer to the following.

GOT-A900 Series Operating Manual (Extension Function /Option Function)

GT15 User's Manual

GT16 User's Manual (Basic Utility)

(2) Maximum number of GOTs

Up to five GOTs can be bus-connected.

2.3 Precautions for System Configuration

2.3.1 Bus connection of GOT

(3) Precautions

• When a GOT is bus-connected to the CPU module, connect the GOT after the last base unit in the system.

Do not position the GOT between base units.

• Extension cables for connecting a GOT on the bus must be a maximum of 13.2m in total length.

• A bus extension connector box (A9GT-QCNB) is required when a first GOT connected on the bus is installed

13.2m or more away from the main base unit. (Note that the bus extension connector box cannot be used for

the Q00JCPU.)

CHAPTER 4 INSTALLATION AND WIRING

4.2 Mounting a Module

4.2.1 Mounting precautions

This section describes precautions for handling CPU modules, I/O modules, intelligent function modules, power supply

modules, and base units.

• Do not drop or apply strong shock to the module case, memory card, SD memory card, extended SRAM

cassette, terminal block connector, and pin connector.

• Do not remove the printed-circuit board of a module or extended SRAM cassette from the case.

Doing so may cause failure of the module and/or printed-circuit board.

• Tighten the module fixing screws and terminal block screws within the specified torque range shown in the

following table.

Screw Tightening torque range

Module fixing screw (M3 × 12) 0.36 to 0.48N•m

I/O module terminal block screw (M3) 0.42 to 0.58N•m

I/O module terminal block fixing screw (M3.5) 0.66 to 0.89N•m

Power supply module terminal screw (M3.5) 0.66 to 0.89N•m

• Be sure to install a power supply module in the power supply installation slot of Q3B, Q3SB, Q3RB,

Q3DB, Q6B, Q6RB, Q6WRB, QA1S6B or QA6B.

Even if the power supply module is not installed, when the I/O modules and intelligent function module

installed on the base units are of light load type, the modules may be operated.

In this case, because a voltage becomes unstable, we cannot guarantee the operation.

• When using an extension cable or a tracking cable, keep it away from the main circuit cable (high voltage

and large current).

Keep a distance of 100mm or more from the main circuit.

• The following are precautions on use in combination with a module whose depth is 130mm or more (such as

Q66DA-G).

1) A module that is less than 130mm in depth cannot be mounted between modules that are 130mm or

4.2 Mounting a Module

4.2.1 Mounting precautions

In case of using the QA1S6B, when installing the base unit to DIN rail in an environment of frequent vibration, use a vibration-proofing bracket (A1S-PLT-D). Mounting the vibration-proofing bracket (A1S-PLT-D) enhances the resistance to vibration. Depending on the environment to install the base unit, it is also recommended to secure the base unit directly to the control panel.

(1) Instructions for handling an extension cable

• Do not step on an extension cable.

• Connect the extension cable to the base unit with the base cover installed to the base unit.

(After you have set the extension number to the extension base unit, reinstall and screw the base cover.)

• When laying an extension cable, secure 55mm or more as the minimum cable bending radius.

If it is less than 55mm, a malfunction may occur due to characteristic deterioration, cable disconnection or

the like.

• The overall length of extension cables must be up to 13.2m.

• Do not install extension cables with the main circuit (high voltage and large current) line.

• When connecting or disconnecting an extension cable, do not hold the ferrite cores mounted at both ends of

the cable.

Hold the connector part of the cable for connection or disconnection.

Holding the ferrite core may cause the cable disconnection in the connector.

Also, if the ferrite core position is shifted, the characteristic will change. When handling the cable, do not to shift

the ferrite core position.

When connecting an extension base unit to the main base unit with an extension cable, plug the OUT side connector of the main base unit and the IN side connector of the extension base unit with an extension cable. The system will not operate properly if the extension cable is connected in the form of IN to IN, OUT to OUT or IN to OUT. When connecting two or more extension base units, plug the OUT side connector of the first extension base unit and the IN side connector of the second extension base unit with an extension cable.

1. To connect an extension cable to the main base unit, remove the portion under the OUT characters

on the base cover with a tool such as a flat blade screwdriver (5.5 × 75, 6 × 100). This also applies to a case where an extension cable is connected to the OUT side connector of the extension base unit. When connecting an extension cable to the Q00JCPU and Q00UJCPU, remove the base cover manually. To remove the base cover, insert the tip of a screwdriver into a clearance below the base cover and pry it up. Be careful not to damage the connector when inserting the screw driver since a connector is located inside the base cover.

2. To connect the extension cable to the next extension base unit, remove the seal put under the IN

characters on the base cover.

4.3.4 Voltage drop when an extension base unit is used

Since the extension base unit (Q5B or QA1S5B) is supplied with 5VDC from the power supply module on the main

base unit, a voltage drop occurs at extension cables. Improper I/O may occur if the specified voltage (4.75VDC or

higher) is not supplied to the "IN" connector of the Q5B or QA1S5B.

When using the Q5B or QA1S5B, make sure that the "IN" connector of the Q5B or QA1S5B is supplied with

4.75VDC or higher.

And it is recommended to connect either of the extension base units as close as possible to the main base unit by

using the short extension cable, so as to minimize the effects of voltage drop.

(1) When only the Q5B or QA1S5B is connected to the extension base unit

When both "SM604" and "SM605" are off, remove the memory card according to the following procedure.

(4) Installing a memory card during power-on

• The memory card cannot be removed while "SM604" is on because the CPU module is using the card.

• Turn off "SM605" if it is on.

1. Turn on the special relay "SM609" using the sequence program or by the device test of a

programming tool.

2. By monitoring the programming tool, check that the special relay "SM600" is turned off.

3. Remove the memory card.

SM600 (Memory card usable flag) : The system turns on this flag when a memory card is

ready to be used.

SM604 (Memory card in-use flag) : The system turns on this flag when a memory card is being

used.

SM605 (Memory card remove/insert

prohibit flag)

1. Install a memory card.

2. Check that the special relay "SM600" is on by monitoring the programming tool.

: The user turns on this flag to disable insertion/removal of a

memory card.

4.5 Installing and Removing a Memory Card

Observe the following precautions when installing or removing a memory card while power is on.

● Note that the data in a memory card may be damaged if the above procedure is not followed. If the operating status of the CPU module at the time of an error is set to "Stop" in parameter, the CPU module stops its operation upon the occurrence of "ICM.OPE.ERROR".

● When a memory card is installed, the scan time of the CPU module increases by several 10ms (maximum). The scan time increases for only one scan where the CPU module performs the mount processing.

● Poor insertion of the memory card may result in "ICM.OPE.ERROR".

● Using the tweezers below is effective when the memory card cannot be removed smoothly.
