z SAFETY PRECAUTIONS z

(Always read before starting use)

Before using this product, please read this manual and the relevant manuals introduced in

this manual carefully and pay full attention to safety to handle the product correctly.

The instructions given in this manual are concerned with this product. For the safety

instructions of the programmable controller system, please read the CPU module user's

manual.

In this manual, the safety instructions are ranked as "DANGER" and "CAUTION".

DANGER

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions,

resulting in death or severe injury.

CAUTION

Note that the CAUTION level may lead to a serious consequence according to the

circumstances.

Always follow the instructions of both levels because they are important to personal safety.

Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference and also pass this manual on to

the end user.

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions,

resulting in medium or slight personal injury or physical damage.

[DESIGN PRECAUTIONS]

DANGER

z Depending on the malfunction of the external output transistor, there may be cases

where the output is ON or OFF status. Install external monitoring circuitry for output
signals that may lead to major accidents.

CAUTION

z Do not bunch the control wires or communication cables with the main circuit or power

wires, or install them close to each other.
They should be installed 150 mm(5.9 inch) or more from each other.
Not doing so could result in noise that may cause malfunction.

[INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS]

CAUTION

z Use the programmable controller in an environment that meets the general specifications

contained in the CPU user's manual to use.
Using this programmable controller in an environment outside the range of the general
specifications may cause electric shock, fire, malfunction, and damage to or deterioration
of the product.

z When installing the module, securely insert the module fixing tabs into the mounting

holes of the base module while pressing the installation lever located at the bottom of the
module downward.
Improper installation may result in malfunction, breakdown or dropping out of the module.
Securely fix the module with screws if it is subject to vibration during use.

z Tighten the screws within the range of specified torque.

If the screws are loose, it may cause fallout, short circuits, or malfunction.
If the screws are tightened too much, it may cause damage to the screw and/or the
module, resulting in fallout, short circuits or malfunction.

z Completely turn off the externally supplied power used in the system before mounting or

removing the module.
Not doing so could result in damage to the product.
Not doing so may cause electric shock or damage to the module.

z Do not directly touch the conductive area or electronic components of the module.

Doing so may cause malfunction or failure in the module.

[WIRING PRECAUTIONS]

CAUTION

z Perform correct pressure-displacement, crimp-contact or soldering for connector wire

connections using the tools specified by the manufactures.
Attach connectors to the module securely.

z Be careful not to let foreign matters such as sawdust or wire chips get inside the module.

These may cause fires, failure or malfunction.

z The top surface of the module is covered with protective film to prevent foreign objects

such as cable offcuts from entering the module when wiring.
DO not remove this film until the wiring is complete.
Before operating the system, be sure to remove the film to provide adequate heat
ventilation.

z Be sure to fix communication cables or power supply cables leading from the module by

placing them in the duct or clamping them.
Cables not placed in the duct or without clamping may hang or shift, allowing them to be
accidentally pulled, which may cause a module malfunction and cable damage.

z When removing the communication cable from the module, do not pull the cable. When

removing the cable with a connector, hold the connector on the side that is connected to
the module.
Pulling the cable that is still connected to the module may cause malfunction or damage
to the module or cable.

z Always ground the shielded cable on the encoder side (relay box).

Otherwise, malfunction may occur.

z When wiring, be sure to verify the rated voltage of the product as well as the terminal

layout. Fire or failure may result if incorrect voltage is input or incorrect wiring is
performed.

z Connecting terminals with incorrect voltage may result in malfunction or mechanical

failure.

3.1 Handling Precautions

This section describes the precautions on handling the module.

1) Do not drop or give a strong impact to the module case and/or connecter.

2) Do not remove the printed-circuit board of the module from the case.
Doing so may cause a failure.

3) Be careful to prevent foreign matters such as cutting chips or wire chips
from entering the module.
Failure to do so may cause a fire, failure or malfunction.

4) A protective film is attached to the module top to prevent foreign matter
such as wire chips from entering the module during wiring.
Do not remove the film during wiring.
Be sure to remove it for heat dissipation before system operation.

5) Tighten the module fixing screws within the following specified torque
range.
Insufficient tightening torque could result in a drop, short circuit or
malfunction.
Excessive tightening may damage the screw and/or the module, resulting
in a drop, short circuit or malfunction.

0.36 to 0.48 N⋅m

0.20 to 0.29 N⋅m

*1 The module can be easily fixed onto the base unit using the hook at the top

of the module.
However, it is recommended to secure the module with the module fixing
screws if the module is subject to significant vibration or shock.

6) When mounting the module to the base unit, insert the module fixing
projection into the fixing hole in the base unit, and mount the module using
the hole as a supporting point.
Incorrect module mounting may cause a malfunction, failure, or drop of the
module.

5.1 Wiring Precautions

1) Different terminals have been prepared for connection depending on the
voltage of the input signal. Connecting a terminal of incorrect voltage may
result in malfunction or mechanical failure.

2) For 1-phase input, always perform pulse input wiring on the Phase A side.

3) When pulse status noise is input, the QD62-H01/H02 may miscount.

4) Provide the following measures against noise for high-speed pulse input:

a) Always use a shielded twisted pair cable and provide grounding.
b) Avoid placing the shielded twisted pair cable parallel to wires that have

large amounts of noise such as power cables or input/output cables.
Place the cable at least 150mm (5.9 inch) from such wires and perform
wiring using the least distance as possible.

5) An example of wiring incorporating measures against noise is shown
below:

of 150 mm (5.9 inch)
or more from I/O

• Grounding the shielded twisted pair cable is performed on the encoder side (relay box). (This example shows

connection with 24 V sink load.

QD62-H01/H02

Do not enclose solenoids and inductive loads together within the same metal conduit.
If a sufficient distance cannot be secured to isolate ducts and other wires from a high­voltage line, use CVVS or other shielded wire for the high-voltage line.

The distance between the encoder and relay box
must be short. Allowing a long distance between

Encoder

the QD62-H01/H02 and the encoder may cause a
voltage-drop problem. Using a tester or other
measuring device, confirm that the voltage at the
terminal block of the relay box doesn't exceed the
rated voltage when the encoder is in operation or
at standstill. If a substantial voltage drop occurs,
increase the wire size or use a 24 V DC encoder
with minimal current consumption.
