z SAFETY PRECAUTIONS z

(Always read these instructions before using this equipment.)

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.
These instructions apply only to Mitsubishi equipment. Refer to CPU module
User's Manual for a description of the programmable controller system safety
instructions.
In this manual, the safety instructions are ranked as "DANGER" and "CAUTION".

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous
conditions, resulting in death or severe injury.

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous
conditions, resulting in medium or slight personal injury or
physical damage.

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 save this manual to make it accessible when required and always forward
it to the end user.

[Installation Precautions]

CAUTION

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

contained in CPU module User's Manual to use.
Using this programmable controller in an environment outside the range of the general
specifications could result in electric shock, fire, erroneous operation, and damage to or
deterioration of the product.
z While pressing the installation lever located at the bottom of module, insert the module

fixing tab into the fixing hole in the base unit until it stops. Then, securely mount the

module with the fixing hole as a supporting point.
Incorrect loading of the module can cause a malfunction, failure or drop.
Securely fix the module with screws if it is subject to vibration or shock during use.
Tighten the screw in the specified torque range.
Undertightening can cause a drop, short circuit or malfunction.
Overtightening of screws can cause damages to the screws and/or the module,
resulting in fallout, short circuits, or malfunction.

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

removing the module.
Not doing so may cause damage to the module.
z Do not directly touch the module's conductive parts or electronic components.

Touching the conductive parts could cause an operation failure or give damage to the
module.

[Wiring Precautions]

DANGER

z Completely turn off the externally supplied power used in the system when installing or

placing wiring.
Not doing so may cause electric shock or damage to the product.

CAUTION

z Check the layout of the terminals and then properly route the wires to the module.
z Solder connectors for external device properly.

Insufficient soldering may cause malfunction.

z Be sure there are no foreign substances such as sawdust or wiring debris inside the

module. Such debris could cause fires, damage, or erroneous operation.

z The module has an ingress prevention label on its top to prevent foreign matter, such as

wire offcuts, from entering the module during wiring. Do not peel this label during wiring.
Before starting system operation, be sure to peel this label because of heat dissipation.

z Securely connect the connectors for the drive module to the connectors on the module

and firmly tighten the two screws.

z When removing the cable or power supply 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 The cable used for connecting the QD70 external input/output signal and the drive module

should not be routed near or bundled with the main circuit cable, power cable and/or other
such load-carrying cables other than those for the PLC. These cables should be
separated by at least 100 mm (3.94 in.). They can cause electrical interference, surges
and inductance that can lead to mis-operation.
