For the operating status of each station after a communication failure, refer to relevant manuals for the network. Erroneous outputs and malfunctions may lead to accidents. Not doing so can cause an accident due to false output or malfunction.

To maintain the safety of the programmable controller system against unauthorized access from external devices via the network, take appropriate measures. To maintain the safety against unauthorized access via the Internet, take measures such as installing a firewall.

A - 1

[Design precautions]

WARNING

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 or special 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 above mentioned control operations that are performed from an external device to a remote programmable controller, any problems on the programmable controller side may not be dealt with promptly due to abnormal data communication. 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.

Do not write any data in the "system area" of the buffer memory in the intelligent function module. Also, do not use any "use prohibited" signals as an output signal from the programmable controller CPU to the intelligent function module. Doing so may cause malfunction of the programmable controller system.

CAUTION

Do not bundle the control wires and the communication cables with the main circuit and the power wires, and do not install them close to each other. They should be installed at least 100 mm (3.94 in.) away from each other. Failure to do so may generate noise that may cause malfunctions.

During registering each setting, do not power OFF the mounted module or reset the programmable controller CPU. Otherwise, data in the CompactFlash card will be undefined. Therefore, resetting and re-registering data are required. This may also cause a module failure or malfunctions.

[Installation precautions]

CAUTION

Use the programmable controller in an environment that meets the general specifications in the user's manual for the CPU module used. Using the programmable controller in any other operating environments may cause electric shocks, fires or malfunctions, or may damage or degrade the module.

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. If the module is not installed properly, it may cause the module to malfunction, fail or fall off. Secure the module with screws especially when it is used in an environment where constant vibrations may occur. Be sure to tighten the screws using the specified torque. If the screws loose, it may cause the module to short-circuit, malfunction or fall off. If the screws are tightened excessively, it may damage the screws and cause the module to short-circuit, malfunction or fall off.

Before mounting/dismounting the module, be sure to shut off all phases of external power supply used by the system. Failure to do so may cause product damage.

Do not directly touch any conductive part or electronic component of the module. This may cause the module to malfunction or fail.

Push the CompactFlash card into the CompactFlash card slot and install it securely. After installing the CompactFlash card, check that it is inserted securely. Failure to do so may cause malfunctions due to poor contact.

[Wiring precautions]

CAUTION

Connectors for external connection must be crimped or pressed with the tool specified by the manufacturer, or must be correctly soldered. If the connection is incomplete, it may cause the module to short circuit, catch fire, or malfunction.

Install connectors securely to modules.

Make sure to place the communication and power cables to be connected to the module in a duct or fasten them using a clamp. If the cables are not placed in a duct or fastened with a clamp, their positions may be unstable or moved, and they may be pulled inadvertently. This may damage the module and the cables or cause the module to malfunction because of faulty cable connections.

When disconnecting the communication and power cables from the module, do not pull the cables by hand. When disconnecting a cable with a connector, hold the connector to the module by hand and pull it out to remove the cable. When disconnecting a cable connected to a terminal block, loosen the screws on the terminal block first before removing the cable. If a cable is pulled while being connected to the module, it may cause the module to malfunction or damage the module and the cable.

Be careful not to let any foreign matter such as wire chips get inside the module. They may cause fire, as well as breakdowns and malfunctions of the module.

A protective sheet is pasted on the upper part of the module in order to prevent foreign matter such as wire chips to get inside the module while wiring. Do not remove this protective sheet during wiring work. However, be sure to remove the protective sheet before operating the module to allow heat radiation during operation.

[Startup and maintenance precautions]

WARNING

Do not touch any terminal during power distribution. Doing so may cause malfunctions.

Always switch OFF the external supply power used by the system in all phases before cleaning or retightening terminal screws. Failure to do so may cause a failure or malfunction of the module. If the screws loose, it may cause the module to short-circuit, malfunction or fall off. If the screws are tightened excessively, it may damage the screws and cause the module to shortcircuit, malfunction or fall off.

CAUTION

Do not disassemble or transform the module. Doing so may cause a failure, malfunctions, personal injuries, and/or a fire.

Before mounting/dismounting the module, be sure to shut off all phases of external power supply used by the system. Failure to do so may cause product damage.

Do not install/remove the module to/from the base unit more than 50 times after the first use of the product. (IEC 61131-2 compliant) Failure to do so may cause malfunction.

Before handling a module, touch a grounded metal object to discharge the static electricity from your body. Failure to do so may cause a failure or malfunction of the module.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE

Network connection precautions

Performance/specification precautions

This section explains the precautions in the order listed below.

 Network connection precautions  Performance/specification precautions  Data logging, event logging, and report functions precautions  Other function precautions  Precautions when accessing the high speed data logger module  Security precautions  CompactFlash card precautions  Precautions when using a redundant system  Recipe function precautions  Precautions when using Logging File Conversion Tool

(1) Mail server and FTP server connections

When immediately turning the power ON after turning the power OFF, connections to mail servers or FTP servers may fail. Turn the programmable controller OFF, wait several minutes then turn it ON.

(1) Programmable controller CPU sequence scan time

When using the high speed data logger module, the programmable controller CPU sequence scan time may increase. Design your system and programs keeping in mind this increase in sequence scan time.  CHAPTER 17 PROCESSING TIME

(2) Network connection using Ethernet

When connecting to Ethernet network, basically configure the communication route to the access target via Ethernet (twisted pair) cables and hubs. Note that when accessing via wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) or router, an error such as timeout or missing data occurs, and cannot be communicated properly depending on the status of the equipment (wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) or router) on the network or the access route.

(3) Time handled on the high speed data logger module

Two types of times handled on the high speed data logger module are available.

 Programmable controller CPU time  Time obtained by the SNTP server function

For errors and the timing of setting the time, refer to the following sections.

 Section 3.1 Performance Specifications  Section 11.4.2 Time synchronization setting

(4) High speed data sampling

The high speed data sampling function is not compatible with other stations' CPUs routing the network.

A - 11

(1) Data logging, event logging, and report functions

Data logging, event logging, and report functions precautions

(a) The data logging, event logging, and report functions of the high speed data

logger module are the best effort functions. Since module processing time changes according to the settings and status of other devices, it may not operate with the set data sampling interval. Run the system by fully verifying the processing time of each function when constructing it. For processing time, refer to the following chapter.  CHAPTER 17 PROCESSING TIME

(b) If data logging, event logging, or report functions are used, they have an affect on

the sequence scan time of the access target CPU. Run the system by fully verifying the affect to the sequence scan time when constructing it. For the affect to the sequence scan time, refer to the following section.  Section 17.3 Effect on Sequence Scanning Time

event logging, or report setting, rounding errors will occur in the range of the number of digits that exceed the number of digits set for the decimal part.

(d) If the result of the linear function transformation with the scaling function exceeds

the maximum or minimum range of the specified output format, the maximum or minimum value is output in binary format. Therefore, when outputting in the binary format, errors may occur in the output values.

(e) E-mail transmissions/file transfers via the saved file transfer function may take a

few seconds to tens of seconds depending on the network line/transmission size. Target files may be deleted before e-mail transmission/file transfer completes depending on the settings. Review the file switching timing and the number of files saved setting and lengthen the time until the file is deleted.

(f) When CSV files are opened with Excel, the date column's format is displayed in

Excel's default setting. Set the cell format as necessary.

(g) Since general data sampling specified data and report current value data are

sampled asynchronously with the sequence scan, data separation may occur. If data separation must be prevented, set the number of device points sampled at one time to less than the access units, or set the module to use high speed data sampling.

(h) When CSV files are opened with Microsoft

displayed depending on the number of the data setting or number of file switching lines.

In this case, open the CSV files with Microsoft

Excel® 2003, all the data may not be

Excel® 2007 or later, or text editor.

A - 12

(2) Data logging function

(a) Immediately after switching the programmable controller system ON, if a trigger

occurs before sampling the number of lines of data before the trigger, the data before the trigger may be a few lines less than the specified amount.

(b) When triggers continuously occur with the trigger logging function, triggers may

be discarded or the number of lines of data specified before the trigger may not be output. For operation when triggers continuously occur, refer to the following section.  Section 7.3.2 Trigger logging

(3) Report function

(a) Immediately after switching the programmable controller system ON, if a creation

trigger occurs when data does not exist in the data logging file, an error occurs in the high speed data logger module. Configure and construct the system so that the creation trigger occurs after data are saved in the data logging file.

(b) Report output takes time. Therefore, according to the data logging save setting,

the data logging file, including the data when the creation trigger occurs, may be deleted before outputting the report has completed. In this situation, the data for the specified number of records are not output, and an error occurs in the high speed data logger module. Verify the points listed in the following section when configuring and creating the system.  Section 9.3 Creation Trigger

when the creation trigger continuously occurs, refer to the following section.  Section 9.3 Creation Trigger

(d) When using Microsoft

2010 (32-bit version), or Microsoft

Basic

for Applications (abbreviated as VBA below).

(1) Access target CPU setting ( Section 11.4.3)

Other function precautions

(a) When rewriting the Configuration Tool settings, power OFF to ON, or resetting the

CPU module, the high speed logger module prepares to communicate with the access target CPU. Therefore, if a large number of access target CPUs are set, several minutes are required for this preparation.

(b) The following conditions may affect the general sampling, FTP transfer function,

and e-mail function: when the CPU which does not exist in the access target CPU is set, or the high speed data logger cannot communicate with the access target CPU temporary because of the power interruption of access target CPU or network failure. Use high speed data logger modules with the status that can communicate with the CPU set as access target CPU. ( Section 3.4.8 General data sampling delay time area (address: 800 to 805)  Appendix 8.2 Processing time of FTP transfer function and e-mail function)

(2) Time synchronization function ( Section 10.1)

(a) If implementing synchronization with the programmable controller CPU or SNTP

server time, the high speed data logger module's time is changed. When the programmable controller CPU's time is changed or when restored after communicating with the SNTP server fails, the high speed data logger module's time may be greatly changed.

(b) Since there is inaccuracy in the clock element in the programmable controller

CPU and high speed data logger module, the time may be moved slightly forward or backward when the time is synchronized. Since changing the high speed logger unit's time affects the data logging, event logging, and report cycles, the determination of time, and the time stamp, configure the module to synchronize its time as little as possible.

(1) Web browser operations, settings

Precautions when accessing the high speed data logger module

In the local area network (LAN) setting of the Web browser, do not set a proxy server for the local address. ( Section 5.3.1)

(2) FTP server function

(a) Because of FTP client side application restrictions, if the user name or password

is input incorrectly, end the FTP operation and redo the FTP connection from the beginning. FTP may not operate correctly by reentering the correct user name or password with the 'user' FTP command.

(b) The maximum number of simultaneous connections to the FTP server is 10.

However, depending on the FTP client, it may make multiple simultaneous connections, so an FTP client may not be able to login even if 10 clients are not connected. In this situation, shutdown all the FTP clients, then restart and connect them.

occur. In this situation, split the files up over multiple transfers and retransfer them.

(d) When using Internet Explorer as an FTP client, the user authentication screen

may not be displayed because of the Internet Explorer specification. To enable the high speed data logger module's access authentication function, enter the address in the following format. ftp://<user name>:<password>@<high speed data logger module's address or hostname>/

(e) When using Internet Explorer as an FTP client, data logging files, event logging

files, report files, and recipe files may not be opened directly because of the Internet Explorer specification. Open those files after saving them to a personal computer.

(f) When using Internet Explorer as an FTP client, because of the Internet Explorer

specification, errors may not be displayed even if the transfer failed when files are transferred to the CompactFlash card which does not have enough free space. Update the display and check if the files are transferred normally.

(3) Replacing old version module with new one

When a high speed data logger module is replaced, make sure to delete the temporary Internet files of Web browser (cache) before accessing the high speed data logger module. ( Section 10.3 POINT)

 Section 18.3.8 Troubleshooting related to data management, CompactFlash

cards

(d) High speed data logger module settings are saved to the CompactFlash card.

Therefore, the high speed logger module's IP address returns to the initial status (192.168.3.3) without a CompactFlash card inserted in the module or when turning the power OFF/ON or resetting the programmable controller CPU without the settings written to the CompactFlash card. When necessary, read the current settings before ejecting the CompactFlash card and after replacing the card, promptly write those settings to the new card.

(5) CompactFlash card capacity

(a) Access speed to the CompactFlash card is affected by the amount of saved files.

In particular, access speed becomes extremely slow when saving files up to the capacity limit of the CompactFlash card. Use the CompactFlash card maintaining 10% or more free space on the card.

(b) A minimum size of the occupied file on the hard disk varies depending on the

CompactFlash card capacity. Therefore, the actual file size and the occupied file size on the hard disk may differ.

(6) CompactFlash card diagnostic time

(a) The high speed data logger module performs a diagnostics (file recovery, etc.) of

the inserted CompactFlash card contents at the times listed below.

 When power OFF to ON, resetting the CPU module  Inserting a CompactFlash card when powered ON

(b) The CompactFlash card diagnostic time takes longer when there are more files on

the card. 100 files takes approximately 5 seconds, 1000 files takes approximately 10 seconds.
