[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 a personal computer. 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) The station to which the board is installed may be disconnected from the data link due to a data
link error. If this occurs, the data output from the station and written to other stations before the
error will be held until the station is reconnected to the network (until its data link is restarted).
Provide a mechanism for data link status monitoring and error handling for each station that is
connected to the data link system.
For the operating status of each station after a communication failure, refer to CC-Link IE Controller
Network Reference Manual for each network. Incorrect output or malfunction due to a
communication failure may result in an accident.
When changing data during operation, configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the
entire system will always operate safely. 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.
Laser diodes are used in the optical transceivers of the CC-Link IE Controller Network. The laser
class (IEC 60825-1) of these laser diodes is Class 1. Do not look directly at laser light. Doing so may
harm your eyes.

OVERVIEW
(4) External power supply allows continuous network communication even
during power-off of personal computer. (Function of the CC-Link IE
Controller Network board with external power supply function)
Since power is supplied externally, the CC-Link IE Controller Network board with
external power supply function can continue network communication (baton passing)
even if a personal computer is powered off and data link cannot be performed.
Therefore, a normally operating station connected between other stations with poweroff computers will not be disconnected from the data link.
Another advantage is that the link scan time is stabilized since loopback can be also
prevented.
When CC-Link IE Controller Network boards without the external power supply function
are installed to station number 3 and 5, and if personal computers of these stations are

Any type of CC-Link IE Controller Network boards including those with external power
supply occupies only one slot.
The event function monitors link devices using the CC-Link IE Controller Network
board, and notifies events to the user program when the set conditions are met.
By only changing settings such as the total number of boards (CC-Link IE Controller
Network boards) installed to a personal computer and channel numbers, any existing
user program created by a MELSECNET/H or MELSECNET/10 board can be utilized.
Since various types of drivers are available, a system suitable to the user environment
can be easily constructed.
