Precautions
• Use extension cable so that the overall extension length can be within 13.2m.
• Do not install the extension cable together with the main circuit (high voltage and high current) line or bring them close to each other. Keep a distance of 100mm or more between them.
• Set the number of extension stages so that the number is not duplicated with another.
• When using extension base units on which AnS/A series modules can be mounted together with the other units, follow the instructions described below.
• Connect the units in order of Q5 Q5
BLS(-D)/Q6BLS(-D)/Q5BL/Q6BLQA1S5B/
QA1S6
BQA6BQA6ADP+A5B/A6B from the
nearest position of the main base unit.
• The QA1S6 used together.
• Since the QA1S51B does not have an extension cable connector (OUT), it cannot be used with the QA6 QA6ADP+A5
• Assign module I/O number with putting each series in block so that the order can be "from Q series to A series" or "from A series to Q series". Failure to do so causes an error "SP.UNIT LAY ERR." (error code: 2120). In addition, do not duplicate the I/O number.
• Connect the extension cable from OUT of the extension cable connector on the base unit to IN of the extension base unit on the next stage.
• If the number of mounted modules exceeds the maximum number of mountable I/O modules, an error "SP.UNIT LAY ERR." (error code: 2124) occurs.
• To construct a multiple CPU system, use a main base unit, Q3
B or Q3DB.
• To use the Universal model QCPU with the extension base units QA1S5 use the Universal model QCPU whose serial number (first five digits) is "13102" or later.

2.2 Precautions for System Configuration

This section explains precautions for using the products.
(1) A multiple CPU system cannot be constructed using the Q series
large type main base unit (AnS series size).
(2) To construct a multiple CPU system with the Q series large type
extension base unit (AnS series size), use a main base unit, Q3
B or Q3DB.
QCPU User's Manual (Multiple CPU System)
When read the manual, regard the descriptions for the Q5
B/Q6
B as the Q series large type extension base unit (AnS series
size) because the handing of the Q series large type extension base unit (AnS series size) is the same as that of the Q5
B/Q6B.
(3) To mount the Q series module on Q series large type base unit
(AnS series size), always attach the Q series large type blank cover (AnS series size). (The cover is not necessary for a module mounted on CPU slot and power supply.)
(4) In Q series large type (AnS series size), the extension cable
connector is not on the right side of the base unit. When the extension cable is used, make sure the cable lengths and the way to connect the cable.
10

2.3 Modules That Cannot be Mounted on the Q Series Large Type Base Unit (AnS Series Size)

This section explains modules that cannot be mounted on the Q series large type base unit (AnS series size).
(1) Two-slot module
Ex. Q64TCRTBW, Q64TCRTBWN, Q64TCTTBW,
Q64TCTTBWN, QD70D4, QD70D8, QJ71LP21S-25, and QJ71GP21S-SX
(2) Module on which the Q series large type blank cover (AnS series
size) cannot be attached
• Module whose height exceeds 98mm
• Module with a bracket on its top
• Module having a projection (such as a connector) on its bottom
• Module on which the Q7BAT-SET has been mounted
Ex. Q66AD-DG, Q66DA-G, Q68AD-G, Q68RD3-G, Q68TD-G-H02,
Q64AD2DA, QD75M1, QD75MH1, QD75M2, QD75MH2, QD75M4, QD75MH4, and the QJ71WS96 on which the Q7BAT-SET has been mounted
A module with a bracket cannot be mounted.
A module with the height exceeding 98mm cannot be mounted.
A two-slot module cannot be mounted.
A module having a projection (such as a connector) on its bottom cannot be mounted.

5. MOUNTING AND INSTALLATION

5.1 Handling Precautions

This section explains handling precautions for the Q series large type base unit (AnS series size) and Q series large type blank cover (AnS series size).
(1) Do not disassemble the Q series large type base unit (AnS series
size) since it is precision apparatus.
(2) Always mount the power supply module on the Q series large type
extension base unit (AnS series size) excluding the Q55BLS and Q55BLS-D. When the load of a module used is light, the module may operate without power supply module; however, the operation cannot be guaranteed because of its instability.
(3) Tighten the module fixing screws and other screws within the
following range.
Location of screw
Module fixing screw (M3×12 screws) 0.36 to 0.48Nm Base cover fixing screw 0.36 to 0.48Nm Bracket fixing screw (M4×8 screws) 1.00 to 1.35Nm End fitting stopper screw (M4×8 screws) 1.00 to 1.35Nm
(4) Do not install the extension cable together with the main circuit
(high voltage and high current) line or bring them close to each other. Keep a distance of 100mm or more between them.

5.2 Precautions for Installing the Q Series Large Type Base Unit (AnS Series Size)

(1) Module installation position
Provide the following distances between the top and bottom of the module and other structure or components to ensure ventilation for heat dissipation and to change the module easily.
Indicates the control panel top, wiring duct, or any part position.
*5, *6
*4
5mm or more *2, *6
*1 30mm or more is required when writing duct is 50mm or less in height. Otherwise, at least
40mm is required.
*2 20mm or more is required when the extension cable is connected without removing
adjacent modules.
*3 80mm or more is required when the connector type is used. For Q8BAT, 80mm or more is
required when the connection cable for Q8BAT is used. *4 For Q7BAT, 45mm or more is required. *5 For Q8BAT, 30mm or more is required from both top and bottom sides of the module. *6 For Q8BAT, 5mm or more is required from both left and right sides of the module.

(2) Module installation direction
(a) Install the programmable controller in the direction shown
below to ensure ventilation for heat dissipation.
19
(b) Do not install it in the directions shown below.
Vertical mounting
Horizontal installation
(3) Install the base unit on a flat surface.
When the base unit is installed on an uneven surface, the printed­circuit board may be strained, resulting in a malfunction.
(4) Do not install the programmable controller together with a vibration
source such as a large electromagnetic contactor or non-fuse breaker. Install the programmable controller to the separate panel or isolate it as far as possible.
(5) Provide the following distances between the programmable
controller and devices (contactor and relay) to avoid the influence of radiated noise or heat.
• Device installed in front of the programmable controller: 100mm or more
• Device installed on either side of the programmable controller: 50mm or more
At least 50mm
At least 100mm
Contactor, relay, etc.
At least 50mm

5.3 Mounting and Installation of the Q Series Large Type Base Unit (AnS Series Size)

The following explains how to mount or install the Q series large type base unit (AnS series size).
(1) Installing a base unit on a panel
To install a base unit on a panel such as a control panel, tighten the base unit mounting screws.
(2) Mounting a base unit on a DIN rail
The following shows a procedure to mount the base unit on a DIN rail.
(a) Installing DIN rail mounting adapter
The following figures show how to install the DIN rail mounting adapters on the base unit rear.
Base unit rear
Place the hook of the adapter (small) in the lower hole.
Insert the adapter (large) into the grooves of the base unit from below.
(b) Mounting on a DIN rail
Remove the base cover and mount the base unit on a DIN rail. Put the base cover on after the completion of the next step, (c). When extension bases are used, determine the number of extension stages in this step.
Base cover
DIN rail
Push the top of the adapter (small) far enough until it "clicks".
Push the bottom of the adapter (large) far enough until it "clicks".

End fitting L
Stopper screw
(c) Attaching the end fitting
Attach the end fitting L and R on the both ends of a DIN rail. Slide them to the position of the end fitting mounting holes on the base unit. Loosen the stopper screws and hitch the hooks of the stopper to the DIN rail. Tighten the bracket fixing screws on each corner to firmly lock the end fitting in place.

5.4 Mounting/Removing the Q Series Module

The following shows procedures for mounting the Q series module on the Q series large type base unit (AnS series size).
(1) Attaching the Q series large type blank cover
The following shows a procedure for attaching the Q series large type blank cover (AnS series size) to the Q series module.
Hitch the module fixing part at the bottom of the Q series large type blank cover (AnS series size) to the slit at the bottom of the Q series module so that the back faces of the blank cover and the module can contact.
Push the top of the Q series large type blank cover (AnS series size) toward the Q series module, and hitch the top fixing hook to the slit at the top of the Q series module.
