• SAFETY PRECAUTIONS •

(Read these precautions before using this product.)

Before using this product, please read this manual and the relevant manuals carefully and pay full attention to safety to handle the product correctly. In this manual, the safety precautions are classified into two levels: "

Under some circumstances, failure to observe the precautions given under " CAUTION" may lead to serious consequences. Observe the precautions of both levels because they are important for personal and system safety. Make sure that the end users read this manual and then keep the manual in a safe place for future reference.

[Design Instructions]

WARNING" and " CAUTION".

!

WARNING

• When data/program change, or status control is performed from a PC to a running safety programmable controller, create an interlock circuit outside the sequence program and safety programmable controller to ensure that the whole system always operates safely. For the operations to a safety programmable controller, pay full attention to safety by reading the relevant manuals carefully, and establishing the operating procedure. Furthermore, for the online operations performed from a PC to a safety CPU module, the corrective actions of the whole system should be predetermined in case that a communication error occurs due to a cable connection fault, etc.

• When a safety remote I/O module has detected a CC-Link Safety error, it turns off all the outputs. Note that the outputs in a ladder program are not automatically turned off. If a CC-Link Safety error has been detected, create a ladder program that turns off the outputs in the program. If the CC-Link Safety is restored with the outputs on, it may suddenly operate and result in an accident.

• To inhibit restart without manual operation after safety function was performed and outputs were turned OFF, create an interlock program which uses a reset button for restart.

[Startup/Maintenance Instructions]

!

CAUTION

• The online operations performed from a PC to a running safety programmable controller (Program change when a safety CPU is RUN, device test, and operating status change between RUN and STOP) have to be executed after the manual has been carefully read and the safety has been ensured. Following the operating procedure predetermined at designing, the operation has to be performed by an instructed person. When changing a program while a safety CPU is RUN (Write during RUN), it may cause a program breakdown in some operating conditions. Fully understand the precautions described in the GX Developer's manual before use.

An access level designates the operation authority given to a user who logs in to a project. The access level is classified into the following three levels, in order from the highest level where all of operations are allowed to project data and a safety programmable controller.

Access Level Operation Authority

Administrators

High

Can perform all operations. Only Administrators can perform user management and security settings.

Developers

Low

Users

Can perform all the operations except for user management and security settings.

Can edit but cannot overwrite the project data in a PC. Can read (e.g. monitoring) but cannot write data as for the online operation to a safety programmable controller.

1 - 2 1 - 2

1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

1.1.2 User registration and login certification

A safety programmable controller performs login certification when opening a project for the purpose of preventing unauthorized users from illegally accessing.

(1) User registration

A system manager has to define the person in charge, and then register the user information required for login certification with the project. The following information is required in user registration.

1) User name

2) Access level (

3) Password (Omissible if access level is set to "Users".)

Maximum 128 users can be registered with each project, and the operation

authority for each user is determined by the user’s access level. For example, the user whose access level is Users is not authorized to rewrite a safety programmable controller program.

(2) Login certification

When opening a project, a user name and password are required. After inputting them, login certification is performed based on the set user registration information. The available operations determined by the user’s access level can be performed after login.

1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

1.1.3 CPU access password

A safety CPU performs access certification by using a password to prevent the misconnected GX Developer from illegally operating. The password is referred to a CPU access password.

The CPU access password has to be set to both the GX Developer project and safety CPU. When performing the operation that changes control (e.g. program change) from the GX Developer, the CPU access password of the GX Developer project is compared with that of the safety CPU. Only when they are identical, the operation will be allowed.

CPU access password "ABC123"

MELSOFT

Can operate, as the CPU access passwords are identical.

1.1.4 Safety CPU operation mode (SAFETY MODE and TEST MODE)

A safety CPU operation mode includes a SAFETY MODE and TEST MODE. The safety CPU operation mode can be switched from the GX Developer.

(1) SAFETY MODE

The SAFETY MODE is used when operating a safety system. In this mode, the operations may lead a safety programmable controller to a control change (e.g. Write to PLC, Device test) are inhibited so that the running system is protected.

(2) TEST MODE

The TEST MODE is used when starting or maintaining a system. In this mode, all operations including "Write to PLC" and "Device test" are available. (The available functions depend on the login user’s access level.)

1.1.5 Operation lock

An operation lock inhibits other users from operating the open project. The operation lock has the following two methods.

Method Contents

Automatic operation lock

Manual operation lock

The following Operation lock screen appears at operation lock. The user during login or user whose access level is Administrators can unlock the setting.

Automatically locks operation if the GX Developer has not been operated for a certain period of time.

Manually locks operation.

3 RESTRICTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS

MELSOFT

3.1 Precautions for the GX Developer Version Earlier than the Safety CPU Compatible Version

(1) Precautions for saving and deleting a project

When using the GX Developer whose version is earlier than the safety CPU compatible version (Version 8.39R or earlier), the login certification to a safety project cannot be performed to the following operations. Therefore, take care not to lose a safety project due to malfunctions.

[Relevant Operation]

• Overwriting a safety project and then saving it by using "Save as".

• Deleting a safety project by using "Delete project".

(2) Precautions for opening a project

When using the GX Developer whose version is earlier than the safety CPU compatible version (Version 8.39R or earlier), the safety project cannot be opened.

3 - 1 3 - 1

3 COMMON OPERATIONS

3.2 Precautions for Management

(1) Precautions for project data management

Be sure to read the Safety Application Guide for correct management/operation of project data. A system manager has to back up the project and save the backup data so that the data restoration is always possible.

(2) Precautions for password management

A system manager has to manage the user information (e.g. user name, login password, and CPU access password) registered to a project with attention.

If losing a login password or CPU access password, either of the following

actions is required.

(a) Losing a login password

The project cannot be opened. If a system manager has lost the password, re-creating a project is required.

(b) Losing a CPU access password

When a CPU access password has been set to a safety CPU, "Write to PLC" cannot be performed unless the same password is set to the project. Note that the CPU access password that has been set to a safety CPU cannot be changed. If losing a CPU access password, initialize the safety CPU by using "PLC memory initialization" and then rewrite the project to the programmable controller. (For "PLC memory initialization"

(3) Precautions for ROM information management

A system manager has to record and store "ROM information" each time program memory is written to ROM. When the ROM information in a safety CPU matches with the previously saved one, a system manager can judge that the data have not been changed. (For "ROM information confirmation"

(Main display contents of ROM information)

• The year/month/day/hour/minute/second when program memory is written to ROM.

• The parameters and program ID when program memory is written to ROM.

• The user who wrote program memory to ROM.
