A - 1
[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 the external power supply or the programmable controller.
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)When the programmable controller detects an abnormal condition, it stops the operation and all outputs are:
•Turned off if the overcurrent or overvoltage protection of the power supply module is activated.
•Held or turned off according to the parameter setting if the self-diagnostic function of the CPU module detects an error such as a watchdog timer error.
(3)All outputs may be turned on if an error occurs in a part, such as an I/O control part, where the CPU module cannot detect any error. To ensure safety operation in such a case, provide a safety mechanism or a fail-safe circuit external to the programmable controller. For a fail-safe circuit example, refer to "General Safety Requirements" in the MELSEC iQ-R Module Configuration Manual.
(4)Outputs may remain on or off due to a failure of a component such as a relay and transistor in an output circuit. Configure an external circuit for monitoring output signals that could cause a serious accident.
●In an output circuit, when a load current exceeding the rated current or an overcurrent caused by a load short-circuit flows for a long time, it may cause smoke and fire. To prevent this, configure an external safety circuit, such as a fuse.
●Configure a circuit so that the programmable controller is turned on first and then the external power supply. If the external power supply is turned on first, an accident may occur due to an incorrect output or malfunction.
●For the operating status of each station after a communication failure, refer to manuals relevant to the network. Incorrect output or malfunction due to a communication failure may result in an accident.
●When connecting an external device with a CPU module or intelligent function module to modify data of a running programmable controller, configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the entire system will always operate safely. For other forms of control (such as program modification, parameter change, forced output, or operating status change) of a running programmable controller, read the relevant manuals carefully and ensure that the operation is safe before proceeding. Improper operation may damage machines or cause accidents.
●Especially, when a remote programmable controller is controlled by an external device, immediate action cannot be taken if a problem occurs in the programmable controller due to a communication failure. To prevent this, 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.
A - 2
[Design Precautions]
WARNING
●Do not write any data to the "system area" and "write-protect area" of the buffer memory in the module. Also, do not use any "use prohibited" signals as an output signal from the CPU module to each module. Doing so may cause malfunction of the programmable controller system. For the "system area", "write-protect area", and the "use prohibited" signals, refer to the user's manual for the module used.
●If a communication cable is disconnected, the network may be unstable, resulting in a communication failure of multiple stations. Configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the entire system will always operate safely even if communications fail. Failure to do so may result in an accident due to an incorrect 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.
●Configure safety circuits external to the programmable controller to ensure that the entire system operates safely even when a fault occurs in the external power supply or the programmable controller. Failure to do so may result in an accident due to an incorrect output or malfunction.
(1)Machine home position return is controlled by two kinds of data: a home position return direction and a home position return speed. Deceleration starts when the proximity dog signal turns on. If an incorrect home position return direction is set, motion control may continue without deceleration. To prevent machine damage caused by this, configure an interlock circuit external to the programmable controller.
(2)When the module detects an error, the motion slows down and stops or the motion rapidly stops, depending on the stop group setting in parameter. Set the parameter to meet the specifications of a positioning control system. In addition, set the home position return parameter and positioning data within the specified setting range.
(3)Outputs may remain on or off, or become undefined due to a failure of a component such as an insulation element and transistor in an output circuit, where the module cannot detect any error. In a system that the incorrect output could cause a serious accident, configure an external circuit for monitoring output signals.
●If safety standards (ex., robot safety rules, etc.,) apply to the system using the module, servo amplifier and servomotor, make sure that the safety standards are satisfied.
●Construct a safety circuit externally of the module or servo amplifier if the abnormal operation of the module or servo amplifier differs from the safety directive operation in the system.
●Do not remove the SSCNETIII cable while turning on the control circuit power supply of the module and servo amplifier. Do not see directly the light generated from SSCNETIII connector of the module or servo amplifier and the end of SSCNETIII cable. When the light gets into eyes, you may feel something wrong with eyes. (The light source of SSCNETIII complies with class1 defined in JISC6802 or IEC60825-1.)
A - 3
[Design Precautions]
WARNING
●Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power cables. Keep a distance of 100 mm or more between them. Failure to do so may result in malfunction due to noise.
●During control of an inductive load such as a lamp, heater, or solenoid valve, a large current (approximately ten times greater than normal) may flow when the output is turned from off to on. Therefore, use a module that has a sufficient current rating.
●After the CPU module is powered on or is reset, the time taken to enter the RUN status varies depending on the system configuration, parameter settings, and/or program size. Design circuits so that the entire system will always operate safely, regardless of the time.
●Do not power off the programmable controller or reset the CPU module while the settings are being written. Doing so will make the data in the flash ROM and SD memory card undefined. The values need to be set in the buffer memory and written to the flash ROM and SD memory card again. Doing so also may cause malfunction or failure of the module.
●When changing the operating status of the CPU module from external devices (such as the remote RUN/STOP functions), select "Do Not Open in Program" for "Opening Method Setting" in the module parameters. If "Open in Program" is selected, an execution of the remote STOP function causes the communication line to close. Consequently, the CPU module cannot reopen the communication line, and external devices cannot execute the remote RUN functions.

1.1 Benefits of Migration
Migrating from the existing system using QD74MH Positioning modules to a new system using MELSEC iQ-R series Simple Motion module RD77MS16/RD77MS8 (hereinafter called RD77MS) is recommended. We also recommend migrating servo amplifiers to the MR-J4 series at the same time.
Migrating not only allows the system to run for longer periods, but also has the following advantages.
(1)High functionality of Positioning module (Simple Motion module)
The Simple Motion module achieves further advanced motion control with a wide variety of motion control functions such as synchronous control, in addition to positioning control. The replaced model offers various new auxiliary features including cam detection function and cam auto generation function, helping to reduce programming time further.
→Increased productivity from higher functionality of the controller
(2)High-speed communication by SSCNETIII/H 
Speeding up and improving noise tolerance of servo system network communications are achieved by optical communication. A long distance cable of 100 m can be also used.
→Increased speeds over the entire facility
(3)Servo amplifier MR-J4 and servo motor 
The MR-J4 series achieves high performance operation with a variety of functions including one-touch tuning, a 22-bit high resolution encoder (4194304 pulse/rev), and 2.5 kHz speed frequency response. The product lineup includes multi-axis servo amplifiers that contribute to energy saving, space saving, and reduced wiring of a machine. The MR-J4 series compatible rotary servo motor, HG series enables to output high torque at high speed. Linear servo motors and direct drive motors are also available. Select the motor type according to your application from our extensive product lineup.
→Increase of applications, improved performance, energy saving, downsizing, and reduced wiring of drive systems
(4)Reliable monitoring functions
With our engineering software, the system status is easily monitored just by selecting monitoring items that your system needs from its wealth of monitoring information.
In addition, operation is checked through waveforms and each device data collected by digital oscilloscope and GX Logviewer
→A strong support for troubleshooting
(5)Lower maintenance cost
After 5 years of usage, the products will need maintenance, such as replacement of the whole circuit board due to the life of components including electrolytic capacitors and memories. To use the system the longest possible, an early migration to the latest model is recommended in terms of performance and quality.
→Increased equipment longevity

(1)Whole system migration (recommended)
The controller, servo amplifiers, servo motors, and servo system network are replaced simultaneously. Although a large-scale installation is required, the whole system migration allows the system to operate for longer periods. (Refer to section 1.4.1.)
(2)Phased migration (When the whole system migration is difficult due to the installation period and cost.)
The controller is replaced with RD77MS in the first phase, and then the MR-J3-B servo amplifiers are gradually replaced with MR-J4-B.
(Refer to section 1.4.2.)
(3)Separate repair
This is a replacement method for when the controller, the servo amplifier, or the servo motor malfunctions.
(Refer to section 1.4.3.)
